Missouri running backs Kendial Lawrence and De'Vion Moore are expected to split carries against Illinois on Saturday.  According to coach Gary Pinkel, "We're going to play them both.  Right now, 50-50 about."

Lawrence and Moore are taking over for the suspended Derrick Washington, and such an even split makes it tough to recommend either one.  Expect the Tigers to throw it a ton against a depleted Illini secondary.
