Is Brady Cook Out for the Count? Mizzou QB's Status Up in the Air After Alabama Beatdown
Let's be real, folks, the Alabama game was a rough one for Mizzou. We all knew going in it would be a tough fight, but getting absolutely clobbered like that? It's enough to make you question everything. And one of the biggest questions on everyone's mind is: what's the deal with Brady Cook?
Cook took a nasty hit in the Alabama game that had everyone holding their breath. He walked off the field under his own power, but the replay showed a brutal collision that had folks worried about his health. He even missed a few plays while getting checked out, and then he came back in, but... let's just say he wasn't quite himself.
Now, the official word from the Missouri coaching staff is vague. They're saying they'll "evaluate" Cook and see how he's doing. But let's be honest, that's coach speak for "we don't know what's going on yet". We're all waiting with bated breath to see what happens.
What could this mean for Mizzou? Well, it's anyone's guess right now. If Cook is out for an extended period, the Tigers will be looking to their backup quarterback, Sam Horn, to step up. Horn had some solid moments in the Alabama game, but can he handle the starting QB role?
Only time will tell. But one thing is for sure: the next few days are going to be crucial for Mizzou as they assess Cook's health and prepare for the rest of the season.
Stay tuned, folks. This one is going to be interesting.
