Today, Nick Bolton is going to make his NFL debut for the Kansas City Chiefs, and yesterday, the Missouri Tigers missed his services more than ever in a 35-28 defeat against the Kentucky Wildcats.
In the game, the Tigers surrendered 340 rushing yards just one week after Central Michigan found many a running lane at Faurot Field as well. Those two subpar performances now have the Tigers sitting dead last among Power 5 schools in yards allowed and rushing yards allowed.
Last year, the Tigers had Bolton to lead this front-7 and shore up running lanes, but this year he’s gone.
