Nzoner's Game Room>****Official 2018 Missouri Tigers Football Thread****
'Hamas' Jenkins 05:36 PM 07-30-2018
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)

Running game was much better once they leaned more on the pass. As long as they do that, the offense can be pretty effective. Defensive starters generally seem to have good discipline and tackling. The major fuckups have been by backups.

Still, those first three conference games are murderous. If they play well, I think they could beat South Carolina. The other two: I just want them to get through healthy.

no shot at UGA? They're talking about your QB down here a lot - I think they're concerned. I'll pull for MU all day!

I agree....just get thru GA and Bama without major injuries and focus on winning the rest of the schedule.

MU would have to catch lightning in a bottle to beat GA, although it is not impossible.

But I give them no chance in Tuscaloosa.

Thx

This team is going to have some real issues if they come out the gate dragging butt when it comes time for SEC play.

i thought Dooley did a really solid job.

Did you watch the first half?

He was, admittedly, better in the second half. I still have my doubts, though. MANY people warned us about hiring Dooley to be the OC. Color me concerned.

I guess we will see . . . . .

600 total yards against a defense that is experienced with several that will play on Sundays...

Wyoming has a mid-round pick and a fringe-y ST guy on that defense. A very good D for a mid-major conference, excellent for the Big XII, but not much else for major college football.
