With 4-5 guys out in routes, the safeties can't help on all of them. The teams that have been effective against OM are teams that can drop 8 into coverage and get pressure with their front 4. Missouri has proven they can do this. I think they'll win for this very reason.
So that's the key, play with 12 on defense?
