The Derek Dooley Difference

Offensive coordinator Derek Dooley’s first year with Missouri is in the books and, for the most part, you could consider it a success.

The Tigers won one more regular-season game than they did last year. Dooley’s line kept Drew Lock clean, Lock cut down on his interceptions and Larry Rountree gave Missouri yet another 1,000-yard back, its third different one in as many seasons.

Dooley proved willing to experiment with pace and formations, and he still fit in a Josh Heupel-style complete whuppin here and there, a feat made even more impressive by the substantial injuries to Emanuel Hall and Albert Okwuegbunam.
