1. Good on you Ish Witter. I'm writing about this after the game, but the kid has gone from role player to star in the final half of his senior season. Few guys who deserve it more.
2. We'll allow Emanuel Hall this one game. He could easily have had 200 yards and three or four touchdowns. He's been a huge weapon. Good to have problems like drops in games that don't matter.
3. This will be billed as Missouri beating a second straight team that has quit. That's weak. The other team doesn't quit without someone to make them quit. Tennessee hadn't quit at halftime. They quit when Missouri pounded them in the second half.
4. I can't figure out if it's ever happened before, but Missouri's defense forced three turnovers on three snaps at one point in the second half. The Tigers aren't dominant on that side of the ball, but they've started to make some plays.
5. I'm finally ready to forget last year with Tucker McCann. He's making pretty much everything now (yes one PAT was blocked) and he finally had to make a long kick in a close game (it was still close when he made a 48 yarder in the second quarter). That's a really nice thing for Barry Odom and Josh Heupel to have a reliable kicker.
6. If you're not in a bowl game now, it's a huge disappointment. Frankly it's somewhat of a disappointment if you aren't 7-5. Let's all go to Memphis on December 30th, huh?
