In reality, even if yall improve substantially, how many more wins can you expect? Let's say you beat Kentucky and Tennesee. Who else are you expecting to beat? Not trying to rain on the parade, my point is that you need to accept a coaching overhaul (which it seems you recognize it).

My prediction is y'all go 5-7 and Pinkel gets fired

Well, we beat Kentucky and Tennessee last year. I see no reason why we cannot do it again.

Also consider that we were beating Georgia until the 4th Quater when Jarvis Jones became a one man wrecking machine. Also consider that we had an inexperienced Freshman O-line due to injuries, we were without our star running back, our number 1 receiver had no college experience, our starting QB was hurt, and our OC was an idiot.

We played Florida in an even game in the Swamp. The last drive of the game, Mizzou drove the ball down the field and setup one last play to throw into the end zone. That pass did not go our way. Florida won.

We lost to Syracuse in another close game that we play awfully.

Vanderbilt. Where do I start? We lost by 4 points and we played our inexperienced backup QB. Vandy won fair and square.
__________________________

The point I'm making is that Mizzou, as a healthy team, could have easily had quite a different record last year.

Mizzou was one of the most injured teams in the history of college football, yet we played even with healthy teams like Florida and Vanderbilt and lost by less than a touchdown to both. We played even if not better than Georgia until Jones single handedly wrecked our 4th quarter. We should've won the Syracuse game as well.

Now we're healthy, we have a new OC who is a southern guy and actually knows the game (versus the man-girl Yost from last year). Our star running back is healthy. DGB has experience and is set to make a far larger impact than last year. Pinkel is in a do-or-die fight for his job. He has no wiggle room for mediocrity.

I see no reason why we shouldn't be better than last year...think about it.

Last year, Mizzou was weak and irrelevant.

This year, see last year.

Missouri will win at LEAST 8 games this year. If they stay healthy, they will be in the hunt for the East title. If their good luck matches the level of bad luck they had last year, they could make Atlanta.

Chin up, Sensei. Go to your Happy Place.
