I wish I shared this iron-clad optimism. A few games ago, several on this thread wanted death and dismemberment to the coaching staff. How quickly it has been replaced with hubris regarding teams who apparently are still having trouble walking and defecating properly after playing the Mighty Mizzou.

I'm more of the cautiously optimistic type...letting the team on the field do the talking.

Cheers to another road win if we are so fortunate. (Vegas has us as a 3.5 pt underdog, but don't let that fact get in the way of a collective braggadocio)

Dobbs is a different player. Confident, accurate as a passer, and difficult to bring down as a runner.

I certainly hope no one is actually underestimating them. Mizzou's got it's hands full, no doubt, and I'm not sure a straight four-man, balls out pass rush (with coverage laid off behind it) is going to cut it because of Dobbs' ability to break contain and make long gains with his legs.

They've also got a huge / tall running back in the style of Eddie George or Robert Smith. I haven't seen enough to nail his running style down, but I lean more toward the speed of Smith than the brawn of George. He looks explosive. And their receiving corps is Mizzouesque - big, tall, fast.

It's going to be a stout test and a hell of a game.

I'm so happy to watch Mizzou beat Tennessee. (the 12 penalties were a bit harsh, but a win is a win).

Now we have to play a red-hot Arkansas. I wouldn't be surprised if we are the underdog again...they have been playing truly inspired ball.
