Missouri football hasn’t settled on its starting quarterback for the 2025 season.
But how about everyone else the Tigers will play?
If ever there’s a time for arbitrary college football lists and rankings, it’s in May. The transfer portal is closed. Spring practices are wrapped. Other than offseason workouts, there isn’t much else going on in the college football universe for more than two months.

12: Austin Myers, Central Arkansas

Faces Missouri: Sept. 13 in Columbia

9: Blake Shapen, Mississippi State
Faces Missouri: Nov. 15 in Columbia
One year later and with a medical hardship waiver in hand, the situation in Starkville for Shapen, who missed most of last season, still does not look spectacular. He…
