You die hards may have expected a win at West Virginia and I tried to tell you different.  If you think this week is going to be a landslide against Eastern Michigan, don’t get too far ahead of yourselves.  Now, let’s be real, even if the Tigers play the way they did against WVU tonight at 6:30, Mizzou should still come away with a win.

However, I expect marked improvement from the Tigers after getting a game under their belt.  There are a few things I’ll be looking for from the offense, defense and special teams.

To summarize on:

DEFENSE–Mizzou needs more than two tackles from Charles Harris

OFFENSE–In order to score points, they need drives longer than six plays and their top players need to touch the ball more.

SPECIAL TEAMS–I don’t want to keep calling the kid Tucker McCann’t.

Give a quick listen to Bill Pollock’s, Mizzou preview as we get a little more in-depth on our keys. (3:30)
