At no point was I overly concerned that we would lose on Saturday as the Dawgs prevailed, 30-21, but any illusions of a blowout victory pretty much ended by the end of the 1st quarter.
1. Mizzou came to town with a very good plan. They had 2 weeks to focus on our tendencies as they had the luxury of a bye week. Extra game prep, and our annual post-Cocktail Party “potential let down” is a recipe for some strange brew. I’m not suggesting we were “flat” by any stretch, but we didn’t match the Tigers energy for much of the first half in my opinion.
