Remember Missouri is only ranked to inflate ranked wins for other SEC teams. They’re not that good guys.

You gotta admit, it’s confusing that yall lost last week to Miss State who just got destroyed by Bama at home, and yall just beat a team that beat the shit out of Ole Miss who had beat LSU

Yeah but it was a close loss on the road to Mississippi St, and they had ample opportunities to win it (Which kind of stings even more after their performance today)

The narrative all year that Missouri is ranked just to inflate the SEC ranked wins is just lazy at this point.

But you’re right, the SEC is confusing nowadays lol

Yeah people are underrating the fact that last week was away and this week was at home during homecoming. Idk what it is about homecoming but Mizzou seems to always plays to their potential so ¯_(ツ)_/¯ not as surprised that we beat Florida as I was surprised we couldn’t figure it out last week honestly

Since y’all basically invented homecoming, it makes sense that y’all always show up for that game

I mean you also looked like dogshit against Troy, so it wasn’t just the close loss against msu

Many good teams have shit games against worse opponents. As long as you win it at the end of regulation without an extra second it doesn’t matter.

Mizzou’s best season in recent memory was a finish in the top 10 in 2023 after beating a top 10 Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl. That same team beat Middle Tennessee by 4 points.
