Missouri placed six players on the preseason All-SEC football teams, but the Tigers were one of two teams in their division to not receive a single first-place vote in the preseason media poll.
Media members at Southeastern Conference Media Days in Atlanta this week voted MU to finish fourth in the SEC East. But quarterback Drew Lock, tight end Albert Okwuegbunam and punter Corey Fatony each landed on the All-SEC first team. Defensive lineman Terry Beckner Jr. and wide receiver Emanel Hall each received second-team honors. Place kicker Tucker McCann was selected for the third team.
