1. Quick three and out to start the game for Missouri
It started off well on the first play with a 12-yard jet sweep to Luther Burden but there were no runs on that drive. I don't like that. Not with the SEC's leading rusher on the team.
2. Even quicker three-and-out for Arkansas.
Safety Sidney Williams gets a sack on a third-down blitz. I think the Tigers sent five or six on that play. This is exactly what I expect them to do since Arkansas is down two running backs. Blitz and blitz some more.
Arkansas is going to try to go uptempo but to be honest, I don't know if that's the greatest idea if the offense isn't working.
3. Schrader leads the second drive.
Schrader gets a gain of three and then a gain of 36 on the next play.
He touched the ball on every play that drive, except a third and four run by Brady Cook, which Cook did not get, and a fourth and one conversion by Cook.
On fourth and one, the Tigers get a QB draw by Cook, but he didn't look ready for the snap.
Schrader punched it in on the next play.
No passes on that drive.
Five carries for 52 yards and a touchdown for Schrader on that drive. See what happens when you use the SEC's leading rusher. Good things.

4. Fumble and KJ Jefferson is badly hurt
The first play of the second drive for Arkansas and KJ Jefferson got a big gain and then fumbled and awkwardly landed. He can't put any weight on that left leg.
Daylan Carnell forced it and Darius Robinson recovered it for Missouri, but the bigger thing is Jefferson is out, unfortunately. I wonder how that changes things for Arkansas.
5. The Tigers get a field goal out of the fumble.
So, the Tigers have a touchdown in the red zone and a field goal in the red zone. It's the right move, but this is the game to clean those red zone issues up.

6. It's too easy.
Arkansas' offense looks like the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense. Then, on defense, it can't stop Missouri's offense. It is simply outmatched.
Mizzou's second play of its third drive was a pass to Burden for a gain of 28 along the sideline. Burden was draped in coverage along the sideline and reeled it in. Great pass by Cook and a great catch by Burden.
By the way, Arkansas has committed multiple offside penalties. Cook is making them jump...at home.
