Arkansas-Missouri football game postponed due to covid-19 protocols

FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas-Missouri game scheduled for Saturday was called off Monday due to covid-19 protocols that have left the Razorbacks without enough players to satisfy SEC roster requirements.

It is unclear whether the game will be made up on Dec. 12 or Dec. 19, when neither team is scheduled to play.

The SEC gives teams the ability not to play a game if it has fewer than 53 scholarship players available, or if it falls below a threshold of seven available offensive linemen, four available defensive linemen, or one available quarterback or center. It is not clear which threshold triggered the Arkansas-Missouri postponement.
