Lol at the downvoters.

It was a great move to have our team get it.

I care bc I don’t want Missouri’s number to rise to a point where they have to cancel the game.

I would make the LSU players get that Zicam spray up the nose before and after the game. Zinc losenges for the next week.

Can’t have anyone go out if we are coming into the grind of the schedule.

Coach won't disclose. However, after reading the following:

COVID-19 testing left Missouri without seven players for its opener against Alabama two weeks ago, but no starters or key backups were missing for the Sept. 26 game.

Would guess that some of the guys being held out from our game are starters just from a probability standpoint.

Drinkwitz didn't say which players were out but did remark that fans would "know soon enough as soon as we take the football field," perhaps implying that notable players would be missing.

It doesn't sound like it is backups because the coach said "the fans will notice who's missing"

Poor title. Only one player tested positive so far. The others are out because of close contact with that player.
