Though they’re only four games into the season, the Missouri Tigers have taken some significant steps forward offensively.
So far, the Tigers are averaging 569.5 yards per game, more than twice their 2015 season average (280.1). Though two of their games have come against non-Power 5 opponents (one Group of 5 and one FCS team), the Tigers didn’t approach the numbers they are currently posting last season against non-Power 5 competition.
Points are up (44.5 per game from 13.5 per game in 2015), third-down conversions are up (49.2 percent from 30.2 percent) and red zone touchdown percentage is way up (64 percent from 32.
