Well someone had to ask it. Mizzou has a pretty solid D so the offense needs to have a good game. I think OU wins but until BA shows he is willing to stretch the field I look for another nail biting 17-13 type game.
This article sums up exactly how I have felt since SEC play began. Something is missing in our offense. Call it whatever you want but unless we play better on the offensive side of the ball I don’t expect to win a playoff game if we even make the playoffs.

Agree. Watching this offense is about as exciting as watching grass grow. Every now and then a piece of grass springs to life but not nearly enough to get excited about.

I disagree with you. And I guess the article. We just beat Alabama, a year after we whomped them in Norman. They were surely geared toward that game because of them. We played with our best defender hurt and out, and our second best defender barely able to play, at a big disadvantage. We beat them with no healthy running backs at the end of the game. If we can win the last two games, we're going to have a home game in the first round. With a break or two, we might have a team we match up with.

I agree that we have some flaws offensively. But if we get healthier, we'll be a threat. If the D keeps getting better, maybe even if we don't

Obviously I hope you’re right, Plaino, but I’m just not that impressed with our offensive performance since Mateer’s injury. Don’t get me wrong, I not suggesting he is still injured but he just isn’t playing at the same level as before and that comes into play in a big way, IMO. I would love for him to prove me wrong or for that matter, for you to prove me wrong. I won’t mind eating crow. BOOMER!!

Man I hate saying this, negative 7 yards offense in ooening quarter just really shows the problems. Is it Arbucklr? Mateer? Or is it this offense just really stinks?

OklaBama hit the nail on the head about his offensive concerns

This defense may bend at times but boy does it buckle down when it is needed. At one time Mizzou had only 8 yards of Off entering 4th qtr
