The Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook and Phil Steele Magazine released their preseason picks for the Big 12 North.
↵Both have Missouri ranked second in the division and Kansas fourth, behind Nebraska, Missouri and Colorado.
↵The Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook tabbed Tanner Hawkinson as a preseason all-conference offensive lineman.
↵Sure, it's a little early and there's a long way to go but I think this is a fair assessment. I really want to see what Mizzou can do with Blaine Gabbert because a good quarterback is such a major advantage in college football.
