No. 15 Missouri Falls 17-10 to No. 10 Vanderbilt, QB Pribula Injured

Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula suffered a significant left leg injury during the Tigers' 17-10 loss to No. 10 Vanderbilt, forcing him to be carted off the field with an air cast. The injury occurred on a crucial fourth-and-goal play in the third quarter, and although the severity remains unconfirmed, concerns about a fracture or ligament damage persist. Pribula, a former Penn State transfer, had been central to Missouri's offense with 11 touchdown passes and a dual-threat playing style, making his absence a major setback for the team's College Football Playoff hopes. Freshman Matt Zollers, a highly rated recruit, replaced Pribula, facing the challenge of leading Missouri's offense during the critical final stretch of the SEC season. This injury compounds Missouri's quarterback woes, as starter Sam Horn has also been sidelined with a season-ending leg injury. The loss puts added pressure on head coach Eli Drinkwitz, who is linked to the Penn State coaching vacancy, as Missouri's playoff aspirations now appear significantly diminished.
