Two weeks ago, Missouri’s defensive line was in disarray.
The Tigers’ feared defensive line appeared toothless in its first two games, recording only one sack and 10 tackles for loss in Missouri’s first two games. Charles Harris, who was a member of the preseason all-Southeastern Conference second team, had only five tackles, none of which were sacks.
Then came the assistant coaches media day after the Eastern Michigan game.
Defensive coordinator DeMontie Cross was not shy in showing his frustration to reporters two weeks ago, calling his players’ commitment into question.
