BenFred: Trick, or treat? Maybe Missouri football can put a scare into big, bad Georgia

So goes the conversation surrounding the 14th-ranked Missouri football team’s chance of toppling undefeated and top-ranked Georgia on Saturday between the historic hedges of Sanford Stadium.

And maybe that viewpoint is correct.

Georgia coach Kirby Smart’s undefeated Bulldogs, in pursuit of their third straight national championship, just blitzed rival Florida by 23 points in a win that was not as close as that final score suggested.

So much for the talk about the Bulldogs being a little down (for them) this season, and perhaps losing a step or two without all-world tight end Brock Bowers, who has been out due to an high-ankle injury.
