It looks like we play into each others' strengths. Their rush defense is the best part of their defense, while our rush offense is the best part of our offense, statistically speaking. Our pass defense is the best part of our defense, while their passing attack is the best part of their offense.

 

I think this game comes down to turnovers and I remember seeing a stat pop up during the Oklahoma State game that said we have turned the ball over 22 times at home this year. If we fix that, I think we have a good chance of winning this game.

[Skull&Bones]

So you're saying there is a chance.

Thats what I was thinkin too after looking at these stats. So what if we give up some rushing yards, as long as shut their pass down alittle bit, I believe we have a pretty good shot at winning. I dont think Mizzou can run straight at us the whole game and expect to win. I expect Mizzou to take some shots at our corners given the success Blackmon had against us.

SOS is also relevant to these stats. SOS, according to Sagarin:

It will be a great game but Missouri will need help from us if they want to win. I think the game is ours to lose.

[krc1995]

no turnovers means we win-IMO, but our turnover rate at home doesn't really support this.

This one is big for me. Our defense has not been creating many TFLs. I think this mainly comes from our primary defensive scheme. We just don't send a lot of guys in the backfield to create TFLs. We try to keep the play in front of us and have good man coverage. I sometimes wonder what would happen if we loaded the line/ blitzed more often.

How often do we Blitz?

[blackshirts5115]

it's the curse of the decommitted quarterbacks. Josh Freeman never beat us. Blaine Gabbert failed last year. he'll fail again this year.

Negative. We have 23 fumbles (tied for worst in the NCAA), and have lost 8 of them (104th). We have 13 turnovers total

 

Completely unacceptable

Considering the fact that CBS bases their SOS on guys like Dennis Dodd and Sagarin's rankings are an actual part of the BCS formula, I'll take Sagarin's word for it over CBS'.
