Florida football: Missouri injury report ahead of Florida
While the Florida football injury report looks sparse, the same can’t be said about the walking wounded for Missouri.
Florida football has been lucky to have a majority of its roster either stay healthy all season or get healthy as the Gators push to the end of the regular season.
Missouri, on the other hand, has been wracked with injuries since August.
The lucky thing for the Tigers is the bulk of their players listed out for the season occurred in August and September, leaving coach Barry Odom time to adjust.
But, that doesn’t mean the squad is fully healthy and ready for the Gators Saturday.
Here’s a look at the recent Missouri injury report, compiled from USA Today and Sports-Reference.com.

Cale Garrett, linebacker
Missouri linebacker Cale Garrett tore his pectoral tendon and is likely out for the remainder of the season.
