COLUMBIA, MO. • If you thought Missouri had a bad day at South Carolina last week, last week’s picks were just as bad. It turns out all those SEC road teams weren’t up for the challenge. Let’s get back on track with this week’s picks, starting with the Tigers’ test in Tuscaloosa.
Quick Hit: For the first time in several years, Alabama will revive the tradition of playing the country classic “Dixieland Delight” during the fourth quarter at Bryant-Denny Stadium. The ritual was discontinued because fans added a naughty word to the refrain at the expense of Alabama’s in-state rival, but Alabama AD Greg Byrne and Miss Terry Saban (Nick’s wife) announced this week the tradition will return for Saturday’s homecoming game, urging fans to refrain from the potty-mouth refrain.
