COLUMBIA, Mo. — Unless they’re concocting a smokescreen for their opponents from Oxford, Miss., the Missouri Tigers gave every indication Tuesday that they expect Kelly Bryant to be their starting quarterback Saturday against Ole Miss. Bryant left Saturday’s win over Troy with what was later diagnosed as a sprained left knee, an injury that looked more serious at the time than the final diagnosis.
Fitted with a knee brace that he wore during Tuesday’s practice, Bryant said he expects to start Saturday’s homecoming game.
“Yeah, you know, I’ve just been testing out the brace, seeing how I move in it,” Bryant said.
