Road games in Wyoming, Kentucky and Georgia, just to name three, will all be battles. And solid SEC teams like the Florida Gators will be making the trek to Columbia, Mo., to duke it out against Barry Odom’s squad.
The three games discussed in the previous slides will all be hard-fought battles. It would be a minor miracle if Missouri came out of those games 3-0. More likely, they will go 2-1 with the sole defeat coming at the hands of the Bulldogs.
This much is certain: with Kelly Bryant under the center, the Tigers will be in every game this season, regardless of where it’s played. Expect him to thrive in Dooley’s adaptive offensive scheme, for Rountree to succeed on the ground, and for tight end Albert Obwuegbunam to finish out his great career on a high note.
Keep an eye on these three matchups. They’ll be fun ones to watch, regardless of the outcomes.
