Show Notes

The Mizzou football coaches and players and backers expected big things from the Tigers in 2024. After last season's 11-2 emergence, Missouri entered this campaign with high hopes, enormous hype, raised expectations, higher standards and a relatively easy schedule. After losing at South Carolina 34-30, MU is 7-3 overall, 3-3 in the SEC, and 2-3 against FBS level teams that have a winning record. Mizzou can still log a 10-win season by winning their final three games -- at Mississippi State, Arkansas at home, and then a bowl game. But the Tigers let a grand opportunity slip away, and the talk of making the 12-team playoff has been silenced. Missouri came up short of the No. 1 goal: build on 2023's excellence, qualify for the expanded playoff tournament, and gain recognition as rising program that's reached a prominent level. That hasn't happened. And that's a huge disappointment. As it turned out, MU was overhyped.

In this video I discuss how Missouri's defense cannot shake a terrible habit, a failure that cost the Tigers a must-win game. I also take a step back and look at the 2024 season from an overview standpoint. How should we feel? How do YOU feel? Please leave a comment. Thanks for your support.
