Senior Brady Cook was always going to be the starting quarterback this season. He had an up year last year, proving
many local and national doubters wrong. He led the team to an 11-2 record and Cotton Bowl victory.
But what does life after Cook look like? There’s no reason to look that far ahead so early in the season, but the
performance from backup sophomore Drew Pyne gave Tiger fans a reason to be excited for the future.
Pyne threw for 82 yards on 10 completions in the back half of the Tigers dismantling of Murray State, looking
comftorable in the pocket and making some smart throws. He won’t get all the
opportunity in the world to prove himself as long as Cook is healthy, but he certainly showed promise.
Watch the video below as Missouri football reporter Michael Stamps looks
into the future of the quarterback spot, as well as the week one performance of Drew Pyne.
Pyne will get another shot to get some game time this Saturday, when the Tigers take on Buffalo at Faurot Field.
