I received the August 2004 edition of Football News today and it states the key to Mizzou's success this Fall will lie in their ability to keep their QB Brad Smith healthy as their backup QB transferred to Delaware.

Marcus Nash who is injury-prone and has a propensity to fumble will be their featured back this Fall.

There are concerns expressed about their kicking game plus the losses on their OL. This could work to the advantage of ASU's young DL.

Athlon does not see Mizzou making a run at the Big 12 division title this Fall, but it does see them doing well against a 'soft' early season schedule.

How dare they insult Troy like that?
