Earlier this week I touched on Missouri’s offense and covered a couple of keys to the game for the Oklahoma State defense. Now, I wanted to discuss the Tigers’ defense and how the Cowboys should attack them.

Barry Odom has a long history in Columbia. He played middle linebacker for Mizzou, started his college coaching career as a graduate assistant there, was named defensive coordinator in 2015 and since 2016 has been the head coach of the Tigers. The Lawton, Oklahoma native is a defensive-minded coach, and even though he relinquished the defensive coordinator duties once he took over as the head man, he still is heavily involved on that side of the football.
