Is missouri in the same position KU was in last year?

Question

I'm a huge KU fan but I just want to know if you think Mizzou is in the same position KU was in last year. Cause mizzou has a lot of talent like KU did, but like KU, their schedule doesn't show much for them. I mean they only have 3 tough games really, with Illinois and Texas and hopefully Kansas. Other than that they have a pretty easy schedule. While KU on the other hand has South Florida, At Oklahoma, Texas, Texas Tech and the big finale at Arrowhead.

So I think Missouri will have to go undefeated or at least 11-1 and win the big 12 champ. to go to the national championship, agree?

Predictions-

KU record- 9-3, 10-2 and a good bowl

MO record- 10-2, 11-1

KU vs MO - KU.

What are your predictions and thoughts

Answer 1

Well, Mizzou did have a rough game defensively last night, but they still stayed strong enough to win. They have the best offense in the land, or at least top 5. Our run defense was unbelievable, but the pass D is really what hurt us. If we can just shore up the deep ball, we would be golden. However, that will be our toughest game this year, until we meet KU in Kansas City. Texas will definitely be a test, but I think Illinois matched up against us better. Anyways, Mizzou will be undefeated when we play KU and I believe we will beat them. And to answer your question, if we go on to beat OU in the Big 12 championship, we could easily make it to the national championship. But really it is fine, I like being the underdogs.

Predictions-

KU record- 9-3

MU record- 11-1

KU vs. MO- Mizzou

Answer 2

I wasn't impressed with Missouri at all last night, sure they were up 31-13 at the end of the half, but they barely held on at the end winning 52-42... they really need to work on their D if they expect to do well in the Big 12. As a long time Colts fan, I learned you need both a strong O and D to win it all, and Missouri has only a strong O.

As for Kansas, they are still a mystery, I didn't watch them this weekend and no one has really showed them on ESPN lately so I have nothing to say about them.
