For those of you who are scared of Mizzou

[Gcrop]

Per NCAA.com this morning:

Total Offense:
Tennessee #18
Missouri #109

Total Defense:
Tennessee #112
Missouri #22

Vandy won by 3. Hardly a beat down but for Vandy it probably is one of their best.

Also, Missouri's QB didn't play against Vandy, he was out hurt.

Just looked up the 2011 final rankings:
UT Total Offense #104
UT Total Defense #28

Almost exactly 180* from 2011 to this year. That's hard to do.

Mizzou is an SEC team.

Don't just expect to win.

Actually a Big 12 team in their first season as an SEC team and they are beaten up and their quarterback is not 100% really hasn't been all season.

And they just played UF to a 14-7 game with a chance to tie or win at the end. Cause for alot of concern IMO.

I know that I am late to the party, but I am not scared of Mizzou. I am scared of our defense

Offensive Rankings (overall):

Troy #19

Tennessee #23

Mizzou #112

Yes I know we'll make them look better, but I thought it was worth a mention.

Im skeered of Franklin!

 

[BEATBAMA12]

Franklin will run over Mc Neil worse than the Troy QB did - and if Gray is in there his passing stats will pick up big time.

Didn't some player tweet that grey should start instead of wags?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Big Mo was without Franklin for awhile. They are an entirely different team without him.

This.

Not saying that means they win, but him being out is a big reason their offense sucked so much.

 

[I_Bleed_Orange77]

No they had a close game. But Georgia and South Carolina thumped them. And they beat Central Florida by 5. Not too worried about it

you do realize we barely beat Troy right?

 

[theFallGuy]

Mizzou played against SEC defenses without their starting QB who is supposed to be good.

Our D will have a tough time no doubt.

we have a defense??

 

[DaddyChad]

After they play us, they will be somewhere around th 70th raned offense i think.

That is sadly what I was thinking. They will move up a lot after meeting this nondefense.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Ok but is that cancelled out by the fact that UGA and USCe barely beat us?

 

[LebanonVolunteer]

We gave up around 500 yards to USCe & UGA. We gave up 721 to Troy. Not sure how it is possible, but the defense is actually getting worse. Mizzou may have 850 yards on us. Worried? Something tells me the coaches are.

 

[askb95]

They still beat us.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Intelligent post. Unfortunately it doesn't answer my question

 

[Ancient Reptile]

Im not worried about Mizzou. They re not very good.

My worries would be with UT.

They looked pretty good and certainly had my Gators worried last Saturday with Franklin at QB. They would have beaten UF had not Quinn pulled the defense out of its man-to-man coverage and into zone so that the DBs could see Franklin when he started to scramble.

Congratulations on your offense. Despite the troubles with your defense, I think you lead the SEC and have scored more points on UF this year than any other team.

 

[TNinSC]

not really "scared" of them, but they can def beat us.

 

[Donvolson]

The offense should avg over 40 down the stretch. Hopefully the defense doesn't give up their avg. Nc St game to now on D is mind boggling. I thought the whole point of the switch was to cause more turnovers. No one ever seems to fumble to us

Damn Troy jumped from #113 to #19 just after our game?

 

[globadoc]

Facts- offense ALOT better than last year , and it does not matter who coaches next year we can't dig out this crater in less then 4 years, who in the past has?

So king what are you thinking????!!

Who has dug out of a crater to coach well in less than 4 years? Just from a current list of coaches
Lane Kiffin (was better than DD in his first year at UT, not too shabby at USC)
Muschamp (2 years at UF)
Meyer (1 year at OSU, UF, and arguably at BGSU)
Sumlin (1 yr at TAMU)
Pellini (1 yr at Neb)

I dare not invoke the name of Chizik, but that is a good start.

You forgot to add this factor to that equation too bro...

 

[MFL]

Apathy has taken me over. Folks want change boycott Neyland. Dooley will get an extension. Just wins 2 of the next three and he stays. More lean years ahead.

 

[TrueOrange]

And they just played UF to a 14-7 game with a chance to tie or win at the end. Cause for alot of concern IMO.

Their QB was also UF's player of the game after he threw four picks (2 in the red zone; all but 1 in UF territory)
