Reports: Mizzou expected to turn to backup QB against Georgia
By Adam Spencer
Published:
Mizzou starting QB Kelly Bryant suffered a hamstring injury against Kentucky a couple of weeks ago.
Now, as the Tigers prepare for a game at Georgia on Saturday night, Bryant still is trying to recover. Coach Barry Odom has called him a game-time decision.
However, multiple reports say Bryant won’t be able to play, which would mean redshirt sophomore QB Taylor Powell will be the Tigers’ starter:
