Mizzou coach Eliah Drinkwitz, plus linebacker Khalil Jacobs, safety Santana Banner and receiver Kevin Coleman meet with media after the Tigers beat UMass 42-6 for Homecoming.

Here are the full videos from each.

Eliah Drinkwitz

“Proud of the way our guys fought, we started fast and then got a little bit clunky there with the turnover,” Drinkwitz said. “But ultimately, we had game control most of the game. And we were able to get some of our younger guys in later in the game.”

“There’s a lot of good things,” Drinkwitz said of quarterback Beau Pribula. “Every snap at quarterback is an opportunity to learn. I think he’s doing a really good job managing the game, not getting too high or too low. Keep working.”

Khalil Jacobs

“Just letting our pass rush get to the quarterback as effectively as we can,” Jacobs said. “We like to do that every week. So, it was effective this weekend.”

Santana Banner

“That was my first pick on defense, I had a pick last year on a fake punt for special teams. So it felt really good to get my first one,” Banner said. “… The quarterback threw the ball, he threw it right to me. It felt great.”

Kevin Coleman

“Beau (Pribula has) been doing great for us,” Coleman said. “Great leader, throwing good, running good. And it’s helping us play to our potential. He’s just been playing good for the team.”
