Mizzou Outlook

Below is a partial write up from the Missouri/Murray State game. Missouri is going to be a tough match up for the Rebels. Alot of Ole Miss fans are looking past this game, but by no means should they be. Take a look at some of the stats from the Tigers QB. He had a pretty impressive game. Based on last weeks performance he would tear our secondary apart. I have a feeling the Ole Miss defensive coaches are working hard on that right now. I wish we had another day to prepare for the game, this is one of the reasons I did not want to play on Sunday. But we can not correct that now. The Tigers are projected to finish as high as second in their division of the Big XII. I hope Rebel fans are prepared for the difficulty of this game.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) -- Chase Daniel set a Missouri record with five touchdown passes, helping the Tigers beat Murray State 47-7 on Saturday.
Daniel, making his first career start, was 23-of-32 for 320 yards with a passer rating of 207.44. He broke the school mark that was held by six others, including Brad Smith, who had four in last season's opening 44-17 win over Arkansas State.
It was first game since 2001 that featured someone other than Smith starting at quarterback for the Tigers. Smith, Missouri's all-time leading passer and rusher, was a four-year starter and holds 69 school, Big 12 and NCAA records.
Daniel showed he also is pretty good, dominating the overmatched Racers, a Division I-AA team that was 2-9 last season and 0-7 in the Ohio Valley Conference.
The Tigers needed just six plays to take the lead for good. Daniel's quick toss to Will Franklin became a 60-yard scoring pass when Franklin spun past the cornerback and ran untouched into the end zone.
