The Tigers are running with two.

Missouri football coach Eli Drinkwitz said Saturday evening that he anticipates quarterbacks Brady Cook and Sam Horn will both see action in the season-opening game against South Dakota at home Aug. 31.

"In the past, we announced a starter and I think right now we're in a situation where it's a continual battle," Drinkwitz said. "But we want to let people continue to grow and develop and not have that pressure … (that) we have to have this decision made at this point.

"I think it's, you know, in this day and age of college football, I think you can very easily see a couple quarterbacks play in the first couple of games and let the play on the field decide it.
