Previewing the opponent offense: Missouri Tigers

Sitting at 3-2, Missouri has looked at times like a contender for the SEC East and at others just a middle-of-the-pack team. Offensively, they boast one of the top passing offenses in the nation and complement it with a top-35 rushing attack.

They run a fairly standard pro-spread that is similar to Alabama’s offense, just with less read options and RPOs. It’s all led by senior QB Drew Lock, and the Missou offense will live and die by how well he performs. In his third full year as a starter, Lock went from an unknown up-and-comer to a volume-passing gunslinger, and is now working on improving his efficiency as a senior.
