First off, I really enjoyed it....great work. But, I disagree w something that @GabeD said about this weekends game. Gabe essentially said that if Drew Lock were still playing in the 4th Quarter that we would know this wasn't going to be a good year. While I would feel a hell of a lot better about the season if we boat race these guys I remember the opener vs Murray St in '13. Mizzou looked awful and sluggish for most of that game; I never really felt we were gonna lose but the defense really struggled w a mobile QB that day. I can't say for sure but I think James Franklin played most of that one. Of course, that went on to be one of the best Mizzou teams ever that year. And before anyone says that it was a proven team let me remind you that the previous year we went 5-7 and a lot of us wondered if the era of good Mizzou football was over. I just want to point out that although we should blow these guys out there have been times when a very good team looks bad in the opener against a poor opponent
