Central Missouri had one of the most explosive offenses last year, but with Zach Zebrowski graduating, it'll be interesting to see how the Mules move forward, and who takes over and quarterback. 

They’ll face a tough test against a Delta State defense that is consistently one of the best in the GSC and known for its physical style of play at McCool Stadium.

Central Missouri takes on Delta State at 7:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, August 28. The game will be streamed live on FloCollege.
