To be honest, I just want to see Lock run the offense as designed. I have no expectations for this game other than I want to see offensive improvement...and I know we will.
killz nailed it, most of the fans just want to see Mizzou's offense return to what we are used to seeing under Pinkel. Pass first, run second. Last 2 years we have had to run first and pass second because of Mauk's lack of accuracy.
Most excited I've been for a Mizzou game this season.

Here's how Mizzou other recent QBs have done in their first starts. None of them got a start their freshman season.
Chase Daniel - I'm going to include his second game since his first was against Murray State.
Murray State: 23-32, 320 yards, 5 TDs, and 0 INTs
Ole Miss (2nd start): 24-40, 243 yards, 1 passing TD, 0 INT, 13 carries for 89 yards, and 1 rushing TD
Blaine Gabbert:
Illinois: 25-33, 319 yards, 3 passing TD, 0 INT, 10 carries for 39 yards, and 1 rushing TD
James Franklin:
Miami (OH): 17-26, 129 yards, 1 passing TD, 1 INT, 14 carries for 72 yards, and 1 rushing TD
Maty Mauk:
Florida: 18-36 295 yards, 1 passing TD, 1 INT, 6 carries for 15 yards, and 1 rushing TD

A segment of Mizzou fans has spent the past few years jizzing themselves with stats to show Mauk sucks.
But he went 17-4 as a starter. The kid won games. And many times he had bad stat nights but he made the passes that pulled out a big win like at South Carolina last year. Or did it with his feet like the bowl game vs Minnesota.
The backup QB is always the most popular guy on campus. But the degree to which some Mizzou fans have gone overboard with stat whining during the Mauk era rather than just enjoying the fact we won 17 out of 21 games has been kinda surreal.
