Defensive end Frazier calls out former offensive coaches as part of the reason for Mizzou’s bowl game loss (AUDIO)

Missouri defensive end Marcell Frazier pointed the finger at two former offensive coaches following the team’s 33-16 loss to Texas on Wednesday at the Texas Bowl.

The focus of Frazier’s frustration centered around former offensive coordinator Josh Heupel and ex-offensive line coach Glen Elarbee. Heupel accepted the head-coaching position at Central Florida, with Elarbee joining him at the school.

“Realistically, Heupel left us in a bad position,” Frazier said. “It is what it is. And Elarbee left us in a bad position. As men they have to look in the mirror.”

“They let a whole bunch of teenage boys down, 18- and 19-year-olds,” Frazier continued. “They left and they have to do what’s best for their family, but I think it showed up a little bit today. We were doing things (on offense) we haven’t done since maybe the Auburn game. It showed up.  We practiced for almost a whole month without an O-coordinator or an O-line coach after having one of the most dominating offenses in the nation. It’s tough. I believe they let some guys down. They had to do what’s best for them. I don’t quite understand it.”
