The Tigers’ offense had a lot of success because of what Schrader did on the ground. Missouri finished 5th in the SEC with 442.9 yards per game.
Schrader joins an elite group at Missouri. He’s one of 15 Missouri players all-time to be named consensus All-Americans. The last 2 consensus All-Americans from Missouri were Shane Ray in 2014 and Michael Sam in 2013.
Missouri will be playing in the Cotton Bowl against Ohio State, the first meeting between the teams since 1998. That game will take place on Dec. 29 at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN.
