Missouri football quarterback Brady Cook will start against Memphis | Report
Missouri football quarterback Brady Cook will start against Memphis on Saturday, ESPN's Pete Thamel reported Friday night.
Cook had been listed as "day to day" by Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz earlier in the week. He suffered a hyperextended knee in Missouri's win over then-No. 15 Kansas State last Saturday, but missed just two plays and helped orchestrate a last-minute drive to win the game.
