Paschall’s Picks: Alabama will subdue Bulldogs in Starkville

Missouri's Gary Pinkel called on decades of coaching experience to deal with the events of the past few days on campus, although he admitted the situation was unique and that there was no "playbook" for such a scenario.

Gary Pinkel has been Missouri’s head football coach for 188 games.

His 189th was in question.

Pinkel’s Tigers are honing in again on Saturday night’s showdown against BYU inside Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium. Missouri players chose last Saturday to boycott this week’s game unless university president Tim Wolfe resigned, and Pinkel supported his team’s actions on Sunday.

Wolfe stepped down Monday, so it was game on again for the Tigers and Cougars, saving Missouri more than $1 million.
