Mizzou notes: Boehm, Hansbrough expect to return Saturday

COLUMBIA, Mo. • Hobbling in protective boots for their sprained right ankles, Missouri center Evan Boehm and tailback Russell Hansbrough arrived at Monday’s media session, where they were listed as questionable to play Saturday at Arkansas State. But both players said they expect to play for No. 24 Mizzou (1-0) in Jonesboro, Ark.

“I’m going to be good to go,” said Hansbrough, who got his feet tangled Saturday with a Southeast Missouri State defender at the end of a 20-yard run, his first carry of the season. “This is just precautionary.”

“I really wanted to play Saturday,” he added.
