Vanderbilt vs. Missouri score updates from Week 5 college football game
After two straight road games, Vanderbilt football now faces the second of two consecutive home games with its SEC game against Missouri.
The Commodores (2-3, 0-1 SEC) are dealing with injuries and turnover woes amid a three-game losing streak. Missouri (4-0) has, on the other hand, started its season off well with a perfect record in its non-conference games but has yet to face an SEC team.
Quarterback AJ Swann has been dealing with an elbow contusion and may not be able to go; if he can't, Clark Lea will turn to Ken Seals or Walter Taylor. Star receiver London Humphreys is also questionable and corner BJ Anderson and offensive lineman Grayson Morgan are out.
