MU ****Official 2018 Missouri Tigers Football Thread**** - Page 37

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10:24 PM

The beginning of the 2018 season is a little under five weeks away. Missouri enters the year projected to finish 4th in the East, and may be a borderline Top 25 team according to some projection systems. After a disappointing recruiting cycle last year, pressure is on Odom to restock the cupboard after the senior years of Lock and Beckner, who will go down as two of the better Tigers in history and likely first round draft picks.

Schedule:

Spoiler!

Recruiting:

Spoiler!

At this point, the class is ranked 68-69 nationally by Rivals and 24/7. Odom is going to have to rely on Pinkel's diamond-in-the-rough approach. It looks like they've pulled back considerably from Georgia, focusing more upon Texas, which is what they should have always done. Unfortunately, they've done horrific in-state, and I think that will likely end up being the nail in Odom's coffin after the 2019 season.

12/19 Update: A strong finish late in the cycle moved the class up significantly. Securing commitments from grad transfer Kelly Bryant and TCU transfer Shawn Robinson has solidified the QB position in the short and intermediate term. A class that was ranked in the 60's at the beginning of the season is now a top 20-30 class factoring in transfers.

Hamas' Crystal Ball: 8-4; 4-4 in the SEC (wins vs. Ark, Tenn, Vandy, Kentucky)

This is what our drive should have been. Instead Dooley comes out running on 1st & 20. I guess the run has been working though.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-06-2018, 03:09 PM

Not before. After.

I didn't mind the 1st run. The 2nd run was pretty damn iffy. That's really quitting on the drive.

DJ's left nut · 10-06-2018, 03:10 PM

Well that's that.

God. Dammit.

Well **** me, right?

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-06-2018, 03:13 PM

Just Mizzou.

I hate this program.

DJ's left nut · 10-06-2018, 03:13 PM

Through like the glorified extra point it was.

From 45 he'd have missed it. Maybe you don't give them a free goddamn 10 yards by sending 3 on third down next time.

Just an awful, awful ballgame.

DJ's left nut · 10-06-2018, 03:14 PM

So I'm not curious if Lock will complete this Hail Mary. That won't happen.

I'm mostly intrigued as to whether or not he'll even get a throw away. I'm betting SC sends 3 and he still gets sacked.

Pepe Silvia · 10-06-2018, 03:15 PM

I hope they never win again.

Bring in Mahomes! Oh, wait
