I have always thought that Missouri was overrated

Now, They look like they are a pretty good team. Pretty Legit. If they were to play LSU at Missouri which tigers would win and why?

We would, they don't face a defense that even comes close to ours. There defense couldn't stop our running game. Not a blowout , but we win.

i dont think they will put up those points on oklahoma, and i dont see their defense stopping oklahoma. i dont see their defense stopping too many teams this year, the defense will prolly be downfall of this team

They would hang half a hundred on us like the 'Ol Ball Coach used to do in his heyday.

I thought that UNt's passing was way too successful against us. Those quick throws kept their quarterback from being sacked. I wonder if Daniels would rip us apart or if we would rise to the challenge

missouri would not face a defense like ours exept for oklahoma.lsu could run it up on teams but les tries to improve his team for the big ones. id bet youll see alot of things in the auburn game that havent been seen yet.

Unless LSU could get consistent pressure on Chase Daniel, it could be a long day. They execute very well and are fun to watch. But Mizzou hasn't matched up well against physical teams; OU proved that last year. This year will tell if they can get over the hump.

I will say that Gary Pinkel has not gotten enough credit for building that program the way he has, and he seems like a class guy to boot. They have quitely and steadily risen over the last few years to become a legit contender. If Les was to ever leave (which I hope he doesn't), I'd seriously consider him for HC at LSU.

for the record, they run a very similar offense to that of UNT, and we couldn't get pressure on UNT

Then it would be a long day. Of course the other option would be for LSU to run the ball, keep Mizzou's O off the field, and wear down their D, which actually does have some good players.

After looking at there defense against illinois, I believe we would control the ball and keep Chase Daniel off the field and beat them no matter where we played

I watched this whole game. Missouri did look good but I think they lack speed. Their wr is fast but rest of the team cant say the same. So I think we destroy them.

Mizzou's defense is suspect, but they are a very good team. Definitely one of the 6 or 8 best teams in the country.

What? We got pressure on UNT all night long. We didn't have any sacks because they weren't throwing the ball over 10 yards. I just re-watched the game and we were in that guys face ALOT. There only chance was to get the ball out quickly.

I watched the Mizzou game and Daniel is very accurate. Nevada didn't get much pressure on CD but when they did it affected him. It basically looked like Mizzou was playing a 7-on-7. Oklahoma gave everyone the blueprint last year to beat Mizzou. Get pressure on the QB and force mistakes. Mizzou doesn't have the D to stop good offenses.

Depends on when the game was played. Right now, probably Mizzou. Later in the season, gotta go with LSU assuming the QBs aren't complete garbage at that time.

Mizzou's defense is bad, really bad. Our DBs look a lot better than I thought they would, so if we actually bring some pressure against them, I think we could definitely rattle Daniels. They couldn't stop our running game at all if the QBs could keep the defense even slightly modest.

Everytime they play a team with a top defense, they lose. It's just that since last year started, they have only played one team that has a top defense, Oklahoma twice. And they lost both times.

They would lose to LSU. Don't get fooled by the way we were playing UNT. We played off the receivers the whole game and just gave them the underneath. The whole defensive gameplan seemed to be anything but a big play. The QB wasn't getting sacked because he was 3 step dropping all game.
