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

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