Watch the video below as Missouri football reporter Joey Van Zummeren gives his top thoughts on the unofficial depth chart the team released ahead of Week 1.
Welcome to Missouri Tigers On SI's "Extra Point," a video series featuring the site's Missouri beat writers. Multiple times a week, the writers provide analysis on a topic concerning the Tigers or the landscape of college sports.
For the most part, the unofficial depth chart released by the Missouri Tigers ahead of Week 1 didn't include any shocking decisions. There was also plenty of room left open for players to create more opportunities for themselves throughout the season.
But, the depth chart did still provide answers to some lingering questions from fall camp, including what the rotation might look like at running back, wide receiver corner back and edge rusher.
The Week 1 game will still be crucial for determining some positions where the exact rotation is still a mystery. Most notably at quarterback, where both Beau Pribula and Sam Horn will look to win the starting job in the season opener.
The Tigers will roll out this lineup on Thursday at 6:30 p.m., when they host Central Arkansas.
