Now that we’ve established that Missouri can stay close with any team by playing ugly - and we know that playing ugly is the only way this staff will play - we can mentally prepare ourselves for Missouri pulling off some wins that it should not win and losses that it should not lose. Are you ready? I know I am!
The first test in our new mindset is the Florida Gators on the road. Billy Napier’s rebuild project is going...ok? I guess? They did knock off a Top 10 Utah team in the first week of the year but, like Missouri, have a tendency of being overly reliant on explosive plays and tend to keep games tight.
