No but we should be competitive. I wish we could beat everyone but we will need to get better on defense in a hurry for Bama. Maybe georgia depending how they look tonight. We looked improved a good bit from week one and week two so can't wait to see what georgia and auburn look like tonight.
Yes, we can. We almost beat Alabama last year!

4. Eric Gray is tremendously more elusive than Ty Chandler, yet the staff seems married to Chandler, especially on 1st and 2nd down. Chandler is above average, but he generally gets what’s there and not much more. Gray creates yards with vision and elusiveness and their touches ought to reflect that. He did put the ball on the ground, but it was near the sideline and not a turnover. Like to see him used more.
I agree that Gray is more elusive, but people on here consistently underrate Chandler. It’s like y’all ignore every good game he has. Chandler was vastly superior last week. 13 carries for 86 yards compared to Gray’s 12 carries for 40 yards. Gray did have two negative plays last week that were not his fault, but he was still outplayed by Chandler. Today was different. Their touches should remain roughly equal until one separates himself.

Funny comment on Missouri board...

”It is unacceptable to lose to Tennessee...”

Must be a 10 year old fan....

Well we’ve played them 9 times after today.
Today was our 4th win in the series so we are still chasing them. Numbers don’t lie. 4 wins to their 5 wins.

OK, I do have one complaint. Not against the players but the coaching staff. I really wanted to see the coaches put in a different QB to get some experience, We are one contact tracing issue away from starting an inexperienced QB. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with the win.

And anyone who understands football knows that the last decade was the worst decade of football in UT history. We won only 25% of our conference games. The only other decade we won less than 50% of our conference games was the seventies (40%). You won’t find Missouri in ESPN’s rankings of the 50 best college football programs of all time but Tennessee is in the top 15. And Tennessee is in the top 10 all time according to AP polls. So yea, numbers don’t lie and unless you’re under 10 or have your head tucked deeply inside your ass you’d recognize the sheer stupidity of a Missouri fan saying it’s unacceptable to lose to Tennessee.

No game is perfect and talking about deficiencies and how we can play even better is just part of being fans. Pruitt made a point to say how we need to improve, both in his comments at halftime and after the game. Guarantano did the same post-game. Very happy with the win. Thrilled that we are starting to look like Tennessee again. Looking forward to all the discussions this week as we get ready for UGA.

Yes. First step is to routinely beat the teams you should beat. Next step is to be competitive with and beat the top tier teams.

People are always free to complain. Just try to sound intelligent when you do it.
True.

Not really a complaint but if there is one unit I'm worried about its the DL. They havent been bad but they have to be better. Starting next week.

I am by no means discrediting this win but, this Missouri team is really really bad. I honestly think we could have ran the ball every down and the score would have been worse. They are in for a very long season. 10/17 will be a showdown for them.

Yes especially with 2 minutes to go in the game, we missed a great opportunity for a back up qb to get a little game experience.
