I honestly think Missouri will be a tough one because it's the 3rd game of a long away stretch, and we're unfamiliar with Mizzou's stadium and city. Mizzou may end up finishing higher in the standings than either Arky or UT...
I think Mizzou is the trap game. Arkansas and Tennessee are known. We're familiar with the stadiums and teams for the most part (with the exception of the new coaching staffs at both, of course...). Missouri will be alien territory. It being the last game will also be key.
Another factor is I think we'll put more emphasis on the other two games, if not outright, then subliminally. This is the last time we'll play Arkansas for a while, want to go out on a high note. Tennessee will be a game that Clowney especially will be focusing on. Another chance at Richardson, with how he was almost completely shutdown last time, should be a big motivator for him to have a big game.

It really still kind of feels like Mizzou is still in the Big 10. Hopefully our players feel that way too and are able to get excited about it as it is somewhat of an eccentric game being in a new stadium and state.
I'm more concerned about getting caught up in the mundane, weekly grind of sub par division teams who we have a history of playing and have recently dominated. Just seems like it's easy to look past them and lose that week to week focus.
