The biggest problem on offense right now is the oline. Which is weird because it has the most experience. But Ricker is under fire for moving guys out of their natural position and simply not developing guys. The only good news there is that our C is finally near 100%. He'd probably played 2 or 3 games he should have sat out with an ankle.
Hansbrough is by far our best rb. We don't have a competent #2. He hardly played since his 2nd carry in our 1st game but played against SC but came up limping after every play. RB will be a problem still this week.
We have some talent at WR but all very young. Lock does get more people involved than Mauk so it's tough to say what they offer. Moore probably possesses the most big play ability but has inconsistent hands. Brown is probably the most reliable. Lock does seem to like using the TE's and backup Reese had a solid day. He's more of a pass catcher than blocker so hadn't seen as much time until our #1 went down.
Lock is a mystery. He's got talent but it is only his 2nd start. He can run when he needs to and picked up 3 1st downs with his feet. Interesting when he was a backup the staff let him loose more. 70% of his snaps were pass plays and his ypa was something like 12. Then his start they dialed it back and it was closer to 50% and his ypa was cut in half. He can throw nearly every pass. Does have a tendency of under throwing the extremely deep post but he can laser it if need be. Also plays with more pace gets rid of it quicker and in rhythm and can vary his arm slot to throw around defenders. I believe he will be a good one but 2 things cut against him. It's only start #2 and the staff will probably still dumb it down for him.

Typically UFs defense this season is weakest in the 1st Q when the opponent has its first drive or 2 scripted.
ECU hurt us early, especially with us missing Hargreaves and Neal.
Same with Kentucky early too. Tennessee hurt us with trick plays.
Against OM last week, the defense had its best performance.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if Mizzou gets an early lead. But UFs defensive coaches usually makes very good adjustments.

Which is what I've been saying. It's going to be hard to prepare for a Lock offense when all you have to go off of is Mauk's terrible performance this year and the last game against SCar when the coaches admitted that they were very conservative with the playbook.
This is just not true, man. It's just not. You don't keep any team in the game if you can avoid it. Especially a game like South Carolina at home, and especially in a day and age where winning big matters in the polls.
Missouri's offense looked bad, just bad, against a putrid South Carolina defense. That wasn't by design, but Lock also looked a little off for the majority of the game.

Im in the process of watching the Mizzou-USCe game now. I've seen them USCe play 3 games this year, in full, and let me just say, the first thing that jumps out at me is just how BAD the USCe defense is. They are just plain and simple not that good. They are really slow on the DL.
I'll wait to post a full review until later, but I will agree with Mizzou posters, that especially early, Pinkel took great care to protect his freshman QB. No passes longer than 7 yards down field. His one completion on third down was to a converted DB that was completely uncovered. Just wide open at the sticks on a simple curl route. HIs TD pass was impressive, a bullet off of his back foot under immediate pressure and into a tight window.

I've heard that narrative before.
I heard it the entire time Muschamp was here, and we were always just "waiting to open the playbook", "protecting our QB", "making reads easier for the QB".
It spells disaster.

I admit, against Florida, I don't see how these plays will allow him to be successful.
Their run game is awful, so he will be asked to make throws down the field if they want to win.
That being said, if Florida plays soft like USCe did, I could see him picking them apart on short stuff.

I'm not concerned that Drew Lock comes in and outperforms Chad Kelly -- although crowd noise was a factor -- Lock is not better than Kelly. We will not play soft, and I think the receivers for Ole Miss were much more versatile and formidable.
If they can't get the run game started, Lock will throw a minimum of 2 interceptions.

I would like to add at this point that South Carolina's passing game plan was terrible.
They new coming in that Mizzou's pass rush was good, and they repeatedly run all 4 WR's 10+ yards down the field on long routes that never have time to finish.
It just ends up being a scramble drill most of the time. Disaster.
On the few plays that are open for USCe - and there are a few, the QB just misses them.
Goddamn, USCe is BAD.

USCe 2nd quarter TD drive is a herp-derp show.
Mizzou blew it on a read option when 91 mis reads the play. Easy first down on 4th down for USCe after another disaster of a possession.
USCe finally realizes Mizzou is blitzing on literally every play, and throws three straight quick passes to cooper, which he takes for about 8 yards each. It's literally the same exact play 3 times. It takes them running it 3 times before Mizzou actually adjusts.
Gets them into the red zone, where USCe herp-derps again, but gets bailed out by the targeting penalty.
Then on 2nd down right after that Nunez just holds on to the ball too damn long, doesn't throw it on time, then chucks a prayer which is deflected for the TD.
Wow. Just wow that was a hard possession of football to watch.
Missouri was blitzing on almost every fricking play, at least 1 guy. They were super aggressive the first 20 minutes.

All I know is that we adjust very quickly, even when we're in high distress. I think we handled the blitz heavy Ole Miss very, very well.
I'm excited for this game.

Mizzou 2nd TD drive Lock did put on a clinic against weak arse zone defense.
He is sacked once, but Mizzou just lines up really nice easy plays for him.
He does have a beautiful corner pass to the TE for about 17 yards at one point, and another great throw on an out for about 10, and the stop and go TD to their best WR is a thing of beauty, but he does all of this against a soft zone with ZERO pressure coming from USCe's front 4.
He isn't pressured at ALL.
I can see why Mizzou fans are more confident now. If you look at this game, Mizzou's offense looks amazing if you ASSUME south carolina has a good defense.

Yep. They've been saying all this week that they're different, they look better -- without realizing that South Carolina has given up something like 400+ yards a game.

We have our trolls but I think most are pretty realistic. We understand what SC is and is not. SC is not UF this year but the offense, even with a conservative game plan, was still better under Lock than it was under Mauk against the likes of SEMO ark state uconn and UK. That doesn't mean we beat UF or win out. More than anything it means fans are excited to be prepping for the future. In fact many don't care if we lose our remaining games if it means getting Lock experience. Other than the rare few That's what they're more excited about than thinking we win the east again.

This game will be close at half. I firmly believe it.
Hopefully both teams play well and avoid injuries.

Wow, South Carolina is just horrible.
Watching this game, how on Earth was Missouri only up 7 for so much time? Unbelievable.

1 hour 33 minutes -- Lock throws a horrible, horrible pass that should have been a pick six. So bad the DB wasn't even prepared for it.
Posted on 10/6/15 at 9:04 pm to StrawsDrawnAtRandom
Missouri seems to have trouble covering Tight Ends as well.

i'm with you straws. i watched the game this evening and even if we play mediocre we should win the game.
i think lock is gonna spend more time running for his life and being put on his arse than throwing the football.
