Despite recent struggles, Mizzou is closer to contention than many fans believe, with fixable issues in deep passing and red-zone offense. Meanwhile, Texas A&M's unexpected favorite status against Missouri raises my eyebrows, especially after its narrow escape against Connor Bazelak and Bowling Green.

Despite 199 yards from Nate Noel, the Missouri Tigers football team struggled in short yardage and red-zone situations. Brady Cook had an up-and-down day, including some great throws and moments of hesitation and impatience. Eli Drinkwitz's clock management error at the end of the first half was also inexcusable. Does Drinkwitz understand risk management? Kirby Moore didn't have his best day. Miss...

Quarterback Diego Pavia is impressive, but what else does Vandy have to hang its hat on? Tennessee moved ahead of Mizzou in the AP Poll, despite the Tigers win over No. 24 Boston College.
