Oh no question.
If they lose 1 and it's to Alabama or Oklahoma, they're fine. They might be able to lose 2 if they beat Bama or OK.
If they beat Bama and OK but trip up against two lesser opponents, it'll be interested to see how that works out.
But they very obviously control their own destiny. Let's say they lose to a (suddenly) ranked BC team this weekend but then end up splitting the OU/AL games and win the rest, that's PROBABLY enough to get into the post-season.
But they've gotta take care of business. This isn't a year you can have a "Because, Mizzou" sort of outlook. Everything this program has ever wanted is there for the taking. They have the talent and they have a schedule that should allow them to get through the season fairly healthy.
Just gotta get the job done.
