IMO our most likely losses from 1-12:
1. Texas
2. Nebraska
3. Oklahoma State
4. Kansas
5. Iowa State (they always play us tough)
6. Illinois
7. Nevada
8. Colorado
9. Kansas State
10. Baylor
11. Buffalo
12. Southeast Missouri State
You lost your best offensive weapon in Mendenhall and Juice isn't exactly a prolific passer despite what Zook apparently told Benn to get him to go to Illinois. Unless John Elway dies and then comes back from the grave to possess Juice Williams body for 4 quarters I don't think you stand much of chance. As long as the D doesn't let you back into the game like they did last year Mizzou should win by at least 3 TDs.
Wow, I guess we should just pack it up. Juice lit up Tosu (3 td passes at the half), Minnesota & Northwestern (yes those last two aren't exactly powerhouses, but Juice still made a lot of really nice passes) and hit USC for 250+. Mendenhall went for 33 yards in last year's game (25 yards on one run). Eddie McGee (a redshirt freshman in his first game action EVER) went up and down the field on them, and our likely starter at RB - Daniel Dufrene - went for 58 yards on 6 carries for a 9.8ypc average. Not to mention that even though we've lost J Leman and some hard hitters in the secondary, we replaced them with A LOT of speed. Our DLine? STACKED.
Nebraska and Iowa State? WTF? I can't wait for this game. I made hotel reservations over a month ago. Maybe I can find this guy and get those 21 points from him in a bet. I'll bring my house note.
