    Mizzou football schedule, results, playoff odds after win at Oklahoma

    Vaseline Posted on

    This is less of a good news/bad news situation for the Missouri Tigers and more of a good news/not the best news situation.

    Yes, Mizzou saved its season with Saturday night’s dramatic 30-23 win against Oklahoma, giving it bragging rights over its former Big 12 rival. However, the Tigers are still a bit of a gamble to make it to the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta or the College Football Playoff.

    Overall, the Tigers are 7-2, 3-2 in league play, which puts them on the right side (i.e. over .500) of the SEC standings. However, there are still numerous teams in the running that Missouri would have to surpass to finish first or second at the end of the regular season. Tennessee, Texas and Texas A&M all have one SEC loss, while Georgia, Alabama, Ole Miss and LSU also all have two losses and are ranked higher.

    Missouri’s two losses were both blowouts, albeit on the road. It has also defeated just one ranked team, Boston College, when the Eagles were No. 24 in September. The Tigers still have a shot at making it to the SEC Championship Game, but they need some serious help and a crazy final three weeks. Georgia hosts Tennessee next week and the Lone Star teams close out the season against each other in College Station. So there will already be a major movement in the rankings. It’s just that Mizzou needs a lot of it.

    As for the College Football Playoff, the scenario is similar: the Tigers have to climb to No. 10-12 and hope for some serious frenzy, as the selection committee won’t take more than three or four teams from the conference. Mizzou hasn’t had a signature win, as its three SEC wins have been against teams that have five combined wins in the league, and none of the three teams it has yet to play have been overly impressive this season.
