It’s not often a team has a complete turnaround on one side of the ball the way Missouri’s defense did last year. The Tigers went from a bottom 20 unit nationally in points per game allowed in 2021 (33.8 PPG, 113th) to a top 60 defense nationally in points per game allowed in 2022 (25.2 PPG, 56th). Such an improvement requires change in personnel, coaching and, frankly, some good fortune.
