Beyond the Box Score: Win your clunkers

Missouri won a football game over a peer conference foe (and actual SEC rival). That’s important, don’t forget that fact as we go through this piece! But there are some other facts to keep in mind:

  • South Carolina lost their head coach
  • Missouri hadn’t played in three weeks
  • South Carolina was missing three of its best players, all in the secondary
  • Missouri technically fielded a 56-man scholarship roster but, in actuality, was much fewer than that

The point is: there’s not a lot of things you can take away from this game that you can project for the rest of this season or even long term in the Drinkwitz regime.
