It is hard to answer about Odom being better than Pinkel. Maybe over time he could take it to the high level Pinkel had, but hopefully more consistent. I don't think he will take this team to 2007 or 2013 heights right out of the gate. Would it be fair to compare Odom and Smart since Pinkel and Richt started and ended their tenures at the same time.
Lock will probably be the starting QB. Very highly recruited, and athletic. Took some beating last year, but looking to take a step forward. Zanders the dual threat, and will see some of the field this year.
I think the Defense will be just as good if not better. It was amazing to see the defense be so good not getting any rest with the offense being so poor. More rest could mean bigger plays on defense. We return alot of 2 deep players, and as you know, under recruited players that the coaching staff turns into badasses.
The stadium is just over 70,000. It gets the loud MIZ-ZOU every first down and TD.
Name to watch is true frosh Demetrios Mason, dude can fly and looks very impressive. I expect our OLINE to be nastier this year, which will open up running lanes for OU transfer Alex Ross and true frosh Damarea Crockett. Witter will be a 3rd down back and can catch out of the backfield. Watch our TE's make some noise as well, starting with Sean Culkin. But by no means is our
offense on the same level as defense. If it does, watch out.
I truly believe that this team will win 7 games this year (at least 6-6 reg season). We surprised coming off a dreadful season in 2012, and this team does have the talent to make a run. From the Show-Me-State, I don't see any East team running away with division this year, and could possibly be a 3 loss division champ, coming down to tie-breakers. Since joining the SEC, could never crown an offseason champ, and neither could the AP.
EAST Division Predicitons:
Florida
Tennessee
Georgia
Missouri
Kentucky
Vanderbilt
South Carolina

Mizzou posters are the best on this website. They are truly gifted craftsman when it comes to making threads on this message board. I'm glad Mizzou joined the SEC. It's so nice to have the attractive and intelligent Mizzou posters on this board.

Thanks for answering. Glad to find that some Mizzou fans can talk football without all the other nonsense.

In Missouri, we describe people like you as "a calf looking at a new gate."

Odom = who knows?
QB a pocket passer or dual thread? No idea
How do you expect your defense to be this year versus last year? Complete mystery

These are all questions I have and, admittedly, an experiment to find decent Mizzou posters.

The time to actually talk football ended a long time ago.
Reword your OP to include...Safe Space, SJW, Yankee and end it with not so kindly asking us to GTFO out of your conference.
Then we can talk...

It never fails to amaze me how people run around whining that the rant is nothing but a troll fest with no intelligent information sharing.....then when you try to start a serious conversation, what do you get as responses? Nonsense.
Shortly you will see them complaining that nobody gives them respect.

Actually, I just looked and the updated capacity is 71,168. The capacity of 71,004 was the pre-renovation number.
And I forget the breakdown of how many physical seats there are versus the capacity of the hill seating.

Is the hill the rock area?

I must admit it is starting to get a little frustrating. I'm gonna hold out hope that there are more than 2 decent ones.

The Rock M is part of the hill's general admission, yes.

You've been here 24 hours and you're giving analysis on fanbases. Scintillating.
