I’ve got a rundown of Missouri’s Saturday offensive exploits coming up later in the day, but for now, here are five other subplots from both last Saturday and this coming Saturday to note:
Steckel mentioned his displeasure with his team’s fundamentals on defense, but he seemed to forget about that dissatisfaction each time he squeezed an old friends hand after the game.
That was most evident when he shared a long embrace with cheer coach Suzy Thompson.
His exit from Faurot Field proved Saturday’s game was more than a homecoming for Steckel.
