It is times such as last Saturday where Missouri makes one scratch their head and wonder how this team was not better this season.

Granted, the Tigers played Vanderbilt, not a world beater, but a solid team with a very good defense and sporadic offense. Missouri’s offense was good, they did enough to get the job done and the defense, which in recent weeks had all but forgotten to get off the bus for the game, did well for the first time in awhile. The Tigers were not able to put all of the pieces of the puzzle together this season, but they do have the pieces to be a solid team in future seasons, they just need time to mature as a team.

Next game: November 19, at Tennessee, 3:30pm ET CBS
