I almost forgot what it was like to cover a win. In all seriousness, good for those kids and this staff. They could give up. Many have (I'm talking about outside the team). Hell, I went into the fourth quarter thinking they were beat in this one. But they didn't and haven't quit. And they're 20 year old kids and they deserve to see some payoff and enjoy a win. There may not be a big difference between 2-10 and 3-9 and 4-8, but good for them nonetheless.

J'Mon Moore deserves credit for this one. I figured he had gone in the tank after the last few weeks. He didn't. I hope he continues to have big games. He's the best interview on the team and I like it when he talks.

This was far from a clean game. Missouri made a ton of mistakes. But Vandy made more. And the Tigers found a way to survive. I thought Drew Lock was great, the defensive line was too. Damarea Crockett looks like a star.

Oh, the kicking game. Well, Ben Tesson ain't paying for his drinks tonight, I can tell you that. Other than that, I'm not gonna try to bring you guys down after a win.

Photos, videos and stories on the front. We've got the grade card and a couple more videos coming in the morning and I'll be at the season opener for Tiger hoops tomorrow night. I'll get the ten thoughts posted in the morning on the rest of what went on in college football.

Talk to you then.
