Thus far, Missouri's 2016 season has played out as projected. The Tigers have handily won two games they were supposed to handily win, and they lost three games they were supposed to lose -- one by about the expected margin (WVU), one by less (Georgia), one by more (LSU).
Beating Georgia would have changed the season outlook by quite a bit, but for now it appears Missouri will indeed have the low margin for error that we expected when the Tigers begin a key four-game stretch next week against Middle Tennessee.
There's one more chance to change the script before that, however.
