The Missouri football team has a chance to beat No. 2 Georgia on Saturday, just as my brother-in-law had a chance of winning a motorcycle in that gas station contest he entered a few months back.
Odom will tell you he had to turn things around after former Tigers coach Gary Pinkel retired. He is 14-14 overall, 6-10 in the SEC and winless in four meetings against top-25 teams. The closest he has come to a signature win, oddly enough, was that 28-27 loss to 16th-ranked Georgia in 2016. Since, the Tigers have been outscored by three top-25 opponents by a combined 88 points.
