Losing to Georgia still keeps them from Atlanta. Not really sure what the damage is, as of today.
Yeah you are right. There is 5 undefeated teams and 4 1 loss teams so I doubt it would have made much difference. The made it to the Top 10 in the AP this morning which is great. [Reply]

All true...the two 2nd string LBs had horrible games, and the entire D looked like they just played two huge games! That sir, is the difference between Mizzou and GA/Bama/LSU. Mizzou has been wining games with focus, intensity, and some decent talent. GA wins those games with talent enough to still win with a 70% effort. Their ceiling, when everyone is focused and motivated is last year's NC game...way higher than Mizzou can muster. [Reply]

Bailey and Hopper being out certainly made things more difficult. I'd love to know when/if they're expected to return. [Reply]

The only way it could hurt is if there are some upsets in the Rival week games or in the conference championships. Mizzou would be one of those 1 loss teams possibly in the mix for the Championship.
But gotta admit that this was definitely a surprise season [Reply]

The shitty part is both of those losses were winnable.
