Coach Johnson has done a great job working with a very inexperienced offensive line, that has dealt with many injuries and COVID-related issues. His work with the offensive line, which was arguably the Tigers’ biggest question mark coming into the season, has helped Mizzou to a 3-3 record when many pundits didn’t believe the Tigers could win two games this year. He has a group that is comprised of one senior (a graduate transfer), a starting left tackle that joined the program in July as a junior college transfer, two juniors and a sophomore, making it one of the nation’s younger units. He also inherited a group that had combined for just 21 Mizzou starts heading into the season. He even had to deal with starting RT Larry Borom and starting LG Xavier Delgado missing a large chunk of the season with injury, and still has his group playing well enough for Mizzou to win games.
