Missouri vs LSU Preview
Missouri was already facing long odds against LSU, the defending national champions. But at least seven players being sidelined with COVID-19 will not help their cause. The scare stems from one positive test inside of the Missouri program and the players will also miss next week’s game against Vanderbilt due to the protocols.
“I don’t make it a habit to put people’s personal business out there,” Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz said. “But (people will) know soon enough as soon as we take the football field.
“I think we all really took a lesson last week when the President of the United States is able to contract the virus,” Drinkwitz added. “I think we can do as great a job as we can, but we all got to practice safe social distancing. We’ve got to wash our hands. Testing can only do so much. Specifically, when we’re traveling it just puts us in a very difficult position and we’re trying to all do the very best we can to play football. Nobody’s intentionally out there not trying to follow protocols. It is what it is and we’re trying to make the most of the opportunity that we have to play.”
Missouri dropped their first two games to Tennessee and Alabama by a combined score of 73-31. The Tigers have depended on freshman Connor Bazelak under center. He was 13-of-21 passing last week for 218 yards with an interception against Tennessee.
“He got in, we moved the ball offensively. He moved the ball on third downs. He made good decisions in the pocket,” Drinkwitz said. “There’s been some things that he missed and some things that he’s got to improve on, but I just felt like he handled the situation well and he gave us a chance, and we’re going to stick with him.”
LSU bounced back from a stunning loss in its opener to Mississippi State with a dominant 41-7 victory over Vanderbilt. Quarterback Myles Brennan shined with 337 yards and four touchdowns. He became the first LSU quarterback to pass for 300-plus yards in each of his first two starts.
“We worked very hard last week on him doing it,” Orgeron said. “When (receivers) become open, let her rip. Throw it. Make a decision and let’s go — and he did that. I thought he did that very well.”
LSU is a 14.5-point favorite for the matchup. The total is set at 54 points. The Tigers are 10-1 straight up in their last 11 games against an opponent from the SEC.
