Good news for Missouri

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri wide receiver Jerrell Jackson will start in the opener against Illinois, less than a month since breaking a bone in his left wrist.

Jackson is the Tigers' top returning wide receiver with 37 receptions and two touchdowns last year. The team said Monday that Jackson will be in the lineup Saturday against Illinois in St. Louis. He will have a small cast on the wrist.

Jackson leads a group of largely untested wide receivers for the Tigers, who went 8-5 last season.

Football is a cruel sport. If the kid is going to play, then the Illini defense should be looking at the left wrist as one big bullseye.
