No. 3 Texas A&M Visits Missouri as Tigers Start True Freshman QB Matt Zollers

Playoff positioning hinges on Missouri’s top-tier defense facing an Aggies offense on a three-game no-sack run.

Overview

  • No. 3 Texas A&M arrives at 8-0 with its highest CFP ranking after its best opening stretch since 1992.
  • No. 19 Missouri hosts in Columbia seeking to keep SEC and CFP aspirations alive after dropping two of its last three.
  • Starter Beau Pribula is out for the season, elevating Matt Zollers to become Missouri’s first true freshman QB starter since 2015.
  • The matchup features Missouri’s defense, leading the SEC in fewest yards allowed and stout against the run, against an Aggies line that has not yielded a sack in three straight games.
  • Texas A&M remains without RB Le’Veon Moss as his return timetable stays uncertain, with coaches Eli Drinkwitz and Mike Elko describing the stage as a significant opportunity that demands urgency.
