COLUMBIA, Mo. — The race to be Missouri's next starting quarterback isn't over yet.

The Tigers will continue their competition between Beau Pribula and Sam Horn into next week's season opener, coach Eli Drinkwitz said Wednesday.

"I informed the team this afternoon that both quarterbacks will play in the first game," he said in a statement. "I want to see them in a game-day situation to make a final determination."

The decision confirms how close the battle between the two signal-callers has been over the offseason, with coaches feeling a need to see both get some game action during Mizzou's Aug.
