Earlier than beating Arkansas, Texas A&M lacked an identification, however it could have discovered one within the operating sport, dashing for 231 yards and 4 touchdowns as Marcel Reed used his legs effectively, paired with freshman operating again KJ Edwards, who produced 66 yards and two touchdowns, each profession highs.
Dealing with Missouri’s Twelfth-ranked run protection, Marcel Reed will likely be tasked with exposing Missouri’s 99th-ranked passing protection, which has been a difficulty for the redshirt junior, who has struggled to constantly full high-percentage throws all season.
Junior large receiver Mario Craver, who’s second on the staff with 235 receiving yards and two touchdowns, has been listed as questionable with a 50% likelihood to play within the final three SEC availability experiences, together with Friday’s newest launch. If Reed cannot go, Ashton Bethel-Roman, Isaiah Horton, and freshman Aaron Gregory might want to step up.
Proper now, I anticipate Mario Craver to play, as he was additionally listed as questionable earlier than the Arkansas sport. Arkansas’s seven questionable gamers haven’t modified since Wednesday.
