Our friend Mike Bratton tweeted out an interesting stat the other day:
How about this coaching stat for Eli Drinkwitz's coaching career:
Drinkwitz’s record is 20-1 when his team is up at halftime; Drinkwitz’s record is 1-11 when his team is losing at halftime
Only loss came during Mizzou's bowl appearance vs. Army to end last season— SEC Mike (@MichaelWBratton) July 11, 2022Keep in mind, while Drink hasn’t been a head coach for that long, he did come to Missouri with a sterling 12-1 record as the one-year steward of an awesome Appalachian State team; the one loss, of course, came when the Mountaineers were down 10-7 at half to Georgia Southern and went on to lose 24-21.
