Didn't mean to make it sound so much like Mauk. Getting the turnovers goes to your D and they get the credit for that. Mauk has a tendency of making very poor decisions when he feels pressure. Your D can obviously bring pressure and if they do that, they can force the turnovers. For example, I've seen Mauk just fling a ball up in the air with no idea where it is going as he was in the process of getting sacked. Lucky for us they went out of bounds, one time 5 yards behind him, the other time 5 yards in front of him and one that thankfully fell at the feet of the defensive lineman.

As for Mizzou's D, they've been pretty good at holding people below their season or conference averages. So the key will be to stay patient and not get frustrated and try to force something that's not there.

Oh, I didn't think you did. I like our D, but they certainly have the potential to get torched and mizzou has some nice offensive weapons.

I'm interested to see how the O does against your D. I think we all know that mizzou has a legit defense. We've seen some pretty decent defenses this year...should be fun to watch (I hope)
