Mizzou football is 5-0 and the Tigers have avoided a repeat of their 2019 game against Vandy that caused a disastrous end to that campaign. We recap the 2023 Tigers' 38-21 win over the Commodores, which was powered by another fantastic Brady Cook performance that saw him set an SEC record, Luther Burden going off once again and a great display from Theo Wease Jr. and the rest of the Mizzou wideouts. We also talk about the strange refereeing decisions at the beginning of the game, KAD snagging another INT, the good and bad from the defensive line & secondary, Mizzou's continued struggles on special teams and give a quick look at the Tigers' matchup against LSU next week (00:00:00-00:52:03).
We cut back to ourselves on Sunday to discuss Eli Drinkwitz landing 3-star ATH Austyn Dendy shortly after the Vandy win. We break down what the WR/Safety out of Pine Bluff, Arkansas has to offer. We also talk about Dennis Gates' latest pull, four-star center Trent Burns whose commitment jumped the Tigers to No. 1 on Rivals' 2024 team recruiting rankings. We break down Burns' skillset and what he had to say about Gates. Plus we give an update on Mizzou volleyball and soccer including Kylee Simmons continued dominance in SEC play (00:52:03-1:10:05)
