COLUMBIA, Mo. — Can a room of quarterbacks be like a baseball starting pitcher and bullpen? Let Missouri’s signal-callers and their Saturday night usage be Exhibit A in the argument for yea.
Beau Pribula was the starter, logging a quality start — almost three quarters, however that can be transposed into innings for metaphor’s sake — with only a few pitches left dangling over the plate. Matt Zollers was the set-up man, hardly seen as he held on for a series. Tommy Lock was the surprising closer, finishing out the fourth to fulfill an opportunity the MU coaching staff felt he earned.
