Mizzou football coach Barry Odom talked about ways to become a good defense at his Tuesday press conference. He repeatedly said “it takes everybody,” from the coaches to the players.
“You’re good against the run, you eliminate explosive plays and you find ways to get the ball back.”
The Tigers have been excellent on all three phases. The defense has been complete during its three games in September.
Because of that, Mizzou is No. 19 overall in ESPN’s 2019 Football Power Index this week.
Only six one-loss teams are ahead of Mizzou as well as two-loss Texas A&M.
