Central Arkansas tackling
Re-watching the game and realizing we’re fortunate we don’t have more knee injuries coming out of that game. You can tell they’ve been coached to tackle at the knees.

Re: Central Arkansas tackling
Look at the size difference between Mizzou and Central Arkansas players. Tackling at the knees is a sound tactical decision, not an attempt to injure.

Re: Central Arkansas tackling
Not saying they’re taught to injure. Just pointing out they attack the knees and we came away with 2 costly injuries and it could have been more. Pribula had a few awkward tackles that he fortunately let his legs go as he was tackled. Feet stay planted and he might have been carted off.
