Hell, if Mizzou manages ONE decent drive against 'Bama in the first half, they go into halftime down 13-7. The defense fought their asses off to keep that game close and ultimately just got zero help at all.
And Cook simply didn't look like someone that wanted to be out there. He looked intimidated by it. I think he knew he wasn't sound and that was that.
And annoyingly, i think the staff knew it as well. But they also knew Pyne sucked. So they went out there with a 'keep it close and pray' gameplan that really never had a chance to work against a 'Bama team with its back against the wall.
That's the first game over the last 2 seasons where having Horn may have really impacted the outcome. Even if he's just a healthy backup, I gotta believe he'd have started that game given what we saw from Cook.
