COLUMBIA, Mo. — For what’ll likely be the last time during fall camp, Missouri football practiced live: pads on, hits allowed.
The Tigers held their second scrimmage of the preseason Saturday and invited a select group of media, including the Post-Dispatch, to observe. The more than two-hour scrimmage is still a small sample size, but it’s the best window yet into key position battles, how the Mizzou offense and defense look and which players could be primed for a breakout.
The scrimmage wasn’t set up as a true game. Rather, the first-, second- and third-team offense and defenses went against each other in situational drills.
