At the beginning, Eli Drinkwitz was a breath of fresh air for Mizzou. As an outsider, “Drink” had nothing to do with MU’s previous years of tumult. To illuminate, Mizzou has struggled to recover from the 2015 player’s strike and campus upheaval. Missouri alum Barry Odom took over then but lacked credibility. And then, when the Tigers upset LSU in 2020, Drinkwitz was hailed as a savior. However, Missouri’s defense is one of the worst in the country. Meanwhile, Texas A&M is coming off one of the greatest betting on College Football wins in program history.

Texas A&M Aggies at Missouri Tigers SBG Odds Overview
Following their big online betting win over Alabama, the Aggies will draw plenty of support. Mizzou’s terrible defense feeds into the handicapping views of the masses.
Texas A&M Aggies Team Overview
Last week, Texas A&M upset Alabama 41-38 as 18.5-point home dogs. The game went over a total of 50. As a result, the Aggies are 4-2 straight up, 3-3 against the spread, and 2-4 over/under. Overall, Texas A&M ranks 84th for total offense and 83rd for scoring offense. While defensively, the Aggies rank 55th overall and 18th for points allowed.
Last spring, at a fan club meeting, Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher vowed to whip Nick Saban’s team. On Saturday night, he did just that. Seth Small made a 28-yard field goal as time expired, and Texas A&M stunned top-ranked Alabama. The victory came on Fisher’s 56th birthday. Certainly, it is Texas A&M’s biggest win since Fisher took over in 2018.

Previously this season, Drinkwitz ran his mouth about playing at Boston College. He said it made no sense to play where he would never recruit. Following an overtime loss in which his defense was rendered helpless, Drink had to eat his words. And his honeymoon ended.
