My belief is that we should have been up because Cook...and the offense...missed good opportunities. Cook, at times today, looked both good (the downfield throws) and at times he looked like lost. Part of that is the missed blocking assignments (back to back sacks where both came clean to get him). I don't like that he likes to run, because he really isn't as good as some say. Plus...if we don't trust Horn to come in we should minimize him running to ensure he doesn't get injured while running. (See today)

We have 2 RB's that, at most Power 5 teams wouldn't be starting. Beyond Burden, the rest of the receiving corp is really just OK as a supporting staff. (I will give Norfleet? the TE some ups for that one catch).

We had a defense today that looked schizophrenic....at times tight, and at times just not capable of tackling or recognizing the open guys over the middle. (To be fair I don't think I have ever seen a Mizzou coach figure out how to cover the middle of the field).

Sorry if I don't see Drinkowitz in the same manner as you......especially after that end of the game penalty that might have cost us the game. That is on him...and anyone who says differently is trying to give him a pass.

I will give him points for going for it on 4th and 2...and props to the OC for the play call on that one.

I'll give Drink his due where he deserves it....and I have. But just as many times you look at what he does and you scratch your head.

You note all of the things going against Missouri and we still beat the #15 team. Drink should absolutely get credit for that, along with everyone on the the team.
