Help me understand.

What are the expected points for a team starting at their own one yard line?

Then tell me the odds of a team scoring a TD on that drive.

And finally, what are the odds of the same team doing that in three of their first four games.

If we were mediocre, the odds wouldn’t be good. But we have one of the best offenses in all of college football. And when we drive and move the ball the way we do, but sometimes settle for field goals, or miss extra points, you can see in a playoff game that could cost us a win.

Maybe you think we’re not very good and it’s shocking we could score 29 against SC. I think we’re a lot better than SC and could have scored another 9 points. I also think our D does a fabulous job of not giving up anything, until we break down and give up big plays.

Drink agrees with me. Me and Drink see this as a playoff team. The little things really matter.

Since I'm not looking for the opinion of a middle school PE teacher who organizes kick ball and dodge ball games, let me know when you have some hard facts.

There's a huge difference between "enjoying" a debate and actually knowing how one works.

They scored zero

For the season Mizzou is allowing 2.3 points on average in the fourth quarters.

You're a gutless (buzz).

There is NO debate about that.

Drink said this after the game:

“When we watch the tape tomorrow, I’m going to be on some secondary coaches’ rear ends because this is getting ridiculous, how porous our pass defense is,” coach Eli Drinkwitz said. “Whatever we’ve got to do to fix it, we’re going to have to do it.”

In answer to the question how many points did SC score in the 4th, they, in fact, scored none. MAYBE it had something to do with the fact that the DB’s FINALLY started turning their heads and finding the ball. Still, on 3rd and long, with 5:30 remaining, Sellers missed a wide open receiver running down the middle of the field.

With UMass and the bye week on the horizon, I’m telling Hardy and Roberts and the lines to leave their helmets in the locker room and play 7 on 7 the whole week. Every play over 25 yards results in a set of steps…coaches included.

Well none of that is true, but rest assured I have WAY more background than you do.

And here is what I posted in another thread and is what Drink agrees with:

In our 2 “real games” vs KU and SC:

Us:
Vs KU: 595 Total Yards - 42 pts
Vs SC: 458 Total Yards - 29 pts
Total: 1,053 Total Yards - 71 pts

Them:
KU: 254 Total Yards - 31 pts
SC: 293 Total Yards - 20 pts
Total: 547 Total Yards - 51 pts

This shows Drink’s concern. With that kind of domination, the scores should be more lopsided.

Again, we’re winning and that’s good. But hard to be a championship team not maximizing in all aspects.

This year’s team has the talent to be a championship team.

Officiating has not been good. That’s been a factor. I’m not claiming an anti-Mizzou bias, but there have been several questionable calls or non-calls go against MU. How they could they miss the MU receiver having his jersey held for 10 yards down the field or the face mask on the holding penalty on Norfleet. Some of those calls have been opportunity and momentum changes.

This is not on the officials, but MU has taken several ill-advised unsportsmanlike conduct penalties that have been momentum changers. I know the one last night upset a lot of people, but it was an easy call for the officials.

good point. But the secondary gave up 5 deep passes which help SC score all of their points.

That needs to be addresses

I see your point. While 547 yards in two games is not a lot but 51 points allowed. Not real productive on the defense (backs)

Well, it wasn't exactly 51 points. Pribula's fumble against the Jayturds put 7 on the board for them. So 44 allowed.

This is true. And yesterday’s INT was when we were knocking on the door for another score.

Our resident troll doesn’t get the point. We’re winning and absolutely dominating games, but against good competition like KU and SC we’ve had to scratch out wins and we really should be blowing them out.

If we play like this in the playoffs against elite teams, it’ll be really hard to win.
