Trap games for every SEC team - Missouri Tigers

531. Prediction. Week 8. 525. afgdsfdghnsdafgd. Oct. 19

Missouri was another tough team to make a pick for, if for no other reason than that they have one of the easiest schedules in the whole conference. I eventually settled on Auburn—here’s why.

This one is a lookahead special for Missouri, as the Tigers will be prepping for their biggest game of the year in the following week. Mizzou is slated to travel to Tuscaloosa the week after this one in what could be a deciding game when it comes to whether or not Drinkwitz’s crew has a shot at Atlanta.

Auburn, on the other hand, will be coming off of a bye week and looking to steal a game in their stretch of three straight road contests. Of course, Missouri will have just played at UMass, so that’s not much more than a bye week when it comes down to it.

Last time these two teams met, Missouri was no doubt the better team, but Auburn won in a 17-14 slog. I could see history repeating itself in that regard if Mizzou doesn’t focus in for this matchup.
