Clay Travis just posted this on the game this weekend. I think some good perspective with a somewhat positive outlook for MU.
“Florida at Mizzou +3 (Now Mizzou -3)
Mizzou is going to win this game by double digits.
I’m not kidding about this.
The moment I saw this line come out I posted to take Mizzou on the Outkick VIP message board and within a couple of hours the line had swung six points, moving from Florida by a field goal to Mizzou by a field goal.
I still don’t think that’s enough.
In the past four weeks Drew Lock has thrown 18 touchdowns and two interceptions. Granted, for the skeptics, two of those games have come against Idaho and UConn, but Lock has also thrown seven touchdowns and just one interception on the road at Kentucky and at Georgia. (Lock had four touchdown passes against Georgia. Fun fact, Mizzou had 28 points against Georgia. The rest of the SEC combined has 24 points this year.)
Florida has no offense and is a mess in the middle of a coaching change.
So I absolutely love Mizzou here.
And I actually think Mizzou has a decent chance, believe it or not, of winning out against this schedule.”
