Takeaways:
Missouri was within 14 points for the first 49:23 of the game. They ran the ball 20 times and threw it 50. That included just 14 handoffs to running backs and seven for Larry Rountree (who I hope for the sake of the sanity of the fanbase was hurt). It's not like the run game was working but again, Missouri seems allergic to simply running the ball and trying to limit the number of possessions the other team gets. That should have been the game plan for the last three weeks. It has not been.
Defensively, Cameron Wilkins is apparently done in favor of Devin Nicholson. Whatever. The defense is playing fine. I don't care which one is in there. I'd probably not have played Jarvis Ware more snaps than any other defensive back, but I probably wouldn't be playing him at all given his propensity for popping off.
As for the rest? It doesn't really matter at this point.
