Missouri will have nowhere near the amount of pressure on PattyIce as Florida did, mark it down.

Missouri's beast of a defense has played #71, #120, and a D-1AA instate team.

MIssouri held Arkansas State to 20 points, and hung on to a 27-20 win
The same Arkansas State team who was held to 6 points by the USC, yes the same USC who allowed Stanford to score 41 points last week.

Lets move on to the game this past week, where the titanium Mizzou defense held UConn, the 120th best team in the United States of America to 6 points. And won by an impressive 3 points.
Yes the same UConn who beat D-1 AA VIllanova by 5 points. Who Nova was able to hold to 20 points.

GIve me a break, MISSOURI WILL HAVE NOWHERE NEAR THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE ON OUR OLINE AS FLORIDA DID.


Let me throw some stats at you(stats may be off a few points but you get it)
Missouri lost 35.5 of 41.5 Sacks from lastyear.

Missouri lost all 4 of their 4 Defensive line starters.

Missouri lost their best defensive player in Shane Ray (2014:14 sacks)

Missouri lost 3 players who accounted for the 3 most hurries




Missouri has played noone. Missouri is being judged off of last year's success and their early success this year. Aside from the LB position, Missouri is mediocre.


He shares some valuable stats and some interesting takes. Some of which are accurate.

1. I agree we will not sack Towles 6 times for 50 yards
2. I think we will give up at least one long pass play (our secondary is not as good as we think)
3. He is right we have played no one.
4. I take nothing from his USC/Arky St/ Standford analysis.
5. He will be mistaken if he thinks we only have good linebackers.
6. We will pressure the QB into hurries just not as many sacks.

Kentucky by far played their best defensive game against Florida. If they match that performance we may not score on them with our putrid offense. To me this game is simple. If the same offense shows up here that has played the first three games. WE LOSE. If they take a step forward the defense can keep Kentucky down enough for the offense to win the game. Offense has to show up and at least play better than the first three games for us to win.
