Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula was carted off the field with an air cast on his left leg after he was awkwardly tackled on a fourth-and-goal play in the third quarter of the No. 15 Tigers' game at No. 10 Vanderbilt on Saturday. Pribula, a senior from York, Pennsylvania, faked a pitch to tailback Kevin Coleman Jr. and kept the ball. Vanderbilt edge rusher Miles Capers and others stopped Pribula short of the end zone, and Pribula's left leg was bent awkwardly as he went to the ground.
Stanford may be going into its toughest game of the season without its starting quarterback. Redshirt freshman Elijah Brown met with reporters on Tuesday, a sign that he could be making his first start of the season when Stanford visits No. 9 Miami on Saturday (4 p.m., ESPN) as a 30.5-point underdog. Ben Gulbranson, who won a position battle over Brown in fall camp, injured his knee in Saturday's 20-13 win over Florida State.
