Tigers QB Beau Pribula avoids surgery, outside chance of return this season

Mizzou fans received some encouraging news this weekend regarding quarterback Beau Pribula, whose season was initially feared to be over after an ankle injury sustained during Saturday's tight, eventual 17-10 loss to No. 10 Vanderbilt.

Pribula, who found a starting role at Missouri after transferring from Penn State and helped lead the Tigers to a strong 6-1 record entering the weekend, was carted off the field in the third quarter after being injured on a fourth-down run at the Vanderbilt 2-yard line.

Pribula has completed 69.6% of his passes for 210.6 yards per game with 11 touchdowns through the air, along with averaging 27.
