REACTION: Austin Simmons Looks Like One of the Best QBs in College Football

Missouri didn’t just beat Florida, the Tigers completely took control of this game, and Austin Simmons was the biggest reason why. Florida entered the game with a rushing attack that had looked nearly unstoppable against Ole Miss. Missouri shut it down, holding Jadan Baugh to just one yard on his final 11 carries after a 12-yard opening run. That forced the game into the hands of the quarterbacks, and that’s exactly where Missouri had the advantage. Simmons looked every bit like an NFL caliber quarterback. He consistently made high-level throws, attacked Florida’s secondary and showed why he may have been one of the biggest steals of the transfer portal. Missouri’s receivers also delivered, while the Tigers’ defense controlled Florida at the line of scrimmage. We break down how Missouri dismantled a Florida team that looked completely different one week earlier, why Jamal Roberts’ huge fourth-quarter numbers don’t tell the entire story of the game, and what Simmons could mean for Missouri moving forward. The Tigers still have a difficult SEC schedule ahead. But with Austin Simmons playing quarterback, Missouri is going to have a chance against just about anybody. ========================================================== Reacting to the latest football action.
