I read it yesterday & we're basically screwed. All of us witnessed the worst OLine in modern Mizzou history last year and the article said we downgraded or pushed across the board. IF true 5-7 will seem like a NC season & Drew may want to increase his life insurance policy. I guess we'll see if coaching matters.

I'm really hopeful that last year was as bad as it was on the line because of the coaching. There was better talent on the line than what they showed on the field. No way you have 2 guys potentially starting on Sunday's this year and were that bad last year.

The O-Line is the main reason for concern with Mizzou going into next season. I think the defense should be stout and your QB should play better after a baptism of fire last year.

But without at least decent O-Line play the defense will be left on the field too long and the QB could develop a case of the yips if he gets popped in the backfield too often (which is what I think happened to Brandon Allen at Arkansas).

I expect the OC to call some screens and draws to try and back the pass rush off to give the O-Line time to find their feet.
