00:00All right, so A&M Missouri in this great SEC matchup,
00:03and this is, boy, a contrast in teams for sure.
00:06Missouri's been fantastic on offense all season long.
00:09They're two and a half point dogs to Texas A&M,
00:12which has just been, you know, they've been,
00:14I would say, playing well enough
00:16to put themselves in position.
00:19This top 25 this year, Bill, more than ever,
00:21has just been shuttling this back end, 23, 24, and 25.
00:24It's like, you're in one week, you're out the next week.
00:26And Missouri is a dog on the road this week.
00:29They've been the better team,
00:30but are they a contender or a pretender?
00:33I guess we're gonna find out coming up this week.
00:36Right, popular upset pick.
00:37Nate Knoll is part of this Missouri offense
00:41that averages over 200 yards rushing per game.
00:43Whenever I see a team that can get over 200 yards rushing,
00:46I know it can travel a little bit.
00:48So if they have some success on the ground early,
00:50it will open things up for Brady Cook.
00:52It's a noon game, not a primetime game,
00:54so that takes some of the shine off of being at Kyle Field,
00:57even though it is a tough road environment.
01:00And Texas A&M, whichever quarterback they have,
01:03whether it's Reed or Wigman,
01:05Missouri's defense is limiting opposing offenses
01:08to 50% completion percentage.
01:11So all of that is my way to say,
01:13if you're a top 10 team, go out and prove it.
01:16I'm gonna take the Tigers here coming off a bye week.
01:18I think betters are punishing them a little bit
01:21for how bad they looked against Vanderbilt.
01:23I don't know if that's fair or not,
01:24but I like Missouri to get through the trend.
