Missouri plays host to Delaware State on Saturday. Delaware State is a FCS team that won once last season and has had one winning record in the past eight seasons. In other words, it’s a mismatch.
But Tigers coach Barry Odom warned his team about overconfidence during his weekly news conference ahead of the teams’ matchup.
“Let’s take the name off the opponent’s jersey,” he said. “Let’s take all that away and worry about us.”
In this case, “worrying about us” means tightening up the mistakes that turned the Tigers’ late lead against Georgia on Saturday into a 28-27 loss.
