Five Quick Takeaways after the loss to Wyoming
Troy Babbitt-USA TODAY SportsThis is the worst-case scenario.
The number one reason to believe in Mizzou this season was the schedule. A big part of that was the non-conference schedule didn’t have an imposing power-five opponent. Well, it had Wyoming. On the road. And... they lost.
What happened to the defense?
The defense allowed less than 100 yards through the air! Didn’t matter. Because they couldn’t stop the run. They allowed 297 yards and more than 7 yards per carry for a defense which had some high expectations coming into the game. Quarterback Sean Chambers, known for being a running QB, had 120 yards on 10 carries.
