Missouri football has a lot of leaders on the team this season, but only three will have the honor of wearing the ‘C’ on their jerseys. Those players were revealed on the team’s social media Sunday night.

Connor Bazelak was a shoe-in for the captaincy, being the field general. His play in clutch situations last year earned him his spot, despite only being a redshirt sophomore.
