COLUMBIA, Mo. - With three weeks until the season opener at Wyoming, Missouri held its first preseason scrimmage Saturday morning on Faurot Field. It wasn’t the best day for the offense, though the Tigers weren’t at full capacity with personnel or playbook.
Barry Odom described the offensive game plan as “really, really vanilla." Also, Kelly Bryant’s two most experienced targets were sidelined and nursing minor injuries: slot receiver Johnathon Johnson, out with a sore foot, and tight end Albert Okwuegbunam, whose status Odom said he’d discuss after the next practice on Monday.
