"He kicked the s*** out of me today," Scherer said. "Sorry, kicked the crap out of me." [...]
"He was everywhere," Gary Pinkel said. "That's just an experience level. That's Coach Stec coaching him and Barry Odom now coaching him. He's all over the place.

The Trib: On the other side of the ball, a new era begins
PowerMizzou: THE POST SCRIPT: SEMO
Missouri's defensive line needs to get much better at contain. Kentrell Brothers said it after the game, that the cut-backs were killing Mizzou (relatively, of course). Against better teams, that's going to become more of an issue, and it's something the defense has to improve on quickly.

Freshmen
Really nice story
The Trib: Daughter's memory still close for MU safeties coach Ryan Walters
Aaron is perfectly healthy. And, as Nicole says, "he’s a trip."
"That little joker is here," Nicole said. "He’s, honestly, the sweetest thing ever."
Ryan and Tara still face the challenges of any young parents, especially ones that had to uproot themselves and move their lives from Denton, Texas, to Memphis shortly after Aaron was born, then from Memphis to Columbia this spring. They still feel the pain left over from Audrey, but have renewed confidence in their faith and bond with each other.
If they can get through that, they can get through anything.
