Mo’s Monday Musings: Week #1 and Embracing Expectations

Okay, we’re here, we made it!

It’s finally the 2024 season now and it’s time for Mizzou fans to ramp up their hopes for another exciting year following the Tigers. We all know that Coach Eliah Drinkwitz and his team exceeded expectations a year ago in spectacular fashion. They began the year unranked and proceeded to win 11 games and finish the year ranked 8th in the final polls. It was such an enjoyable year that hardly anyone expected.

Accordingly, with a big chunk of talent returning from last season, and combined with a lot of high-profile recruiting wins in the off-season and the SEC hype train in support, the Tigers enter 2024 in new territory: they’ve got a target on their back.
