Missouri looking to sustain drives against skidding Arkansas

Missouri looks for rare offensive consistency when it wraps up its regular season with a Southeastern Conference game against Arkansas on Saturday in Fayetteville, Ark.Missouri (7-4, 3-4 SEC) is coming off a 17-6 loss at then-No. 8 Oklahoma last weekend. The Tigers were kept out of the end zone for the first time this season as Beau Pribula completed 20 of 36 passes for 231 yards. He threw two interceptions and was sacked four times.The Tigers posted a 301-276 edge in yards gained, yet couldn’t string together a scoring drive thanks to a 3-for-15 effort on third downs.”During moments in the game where we need to rely on (our offense), it hasn’t come through like we wanted it,” said Missouri coach Eliah Drinkwitz, who agreed to a new contract this week.”But we still have the opportunity in the last two games to get it fixed and that’s what we are working on.”While the Tigers are vying for bowl position, the Razorbacks (2-9, 0-7) are playing out the string, still in search of their first SEC win and trying to snap a nine-game losing streak.Interim coach Bobby Petrino said he might not announce his starting quarterback until game time.”We’ve got to play it out in practice and make sure everyone is in good shape,” Petrino said. “… We’ll just work it and see who is ready to go.”
