as i look into my crystal ball ... i see missou up 7 with little time left in the 4th quarter ... the illini have just gotten the ball back on downs ... they start marching down the field ... hope springs eternal ... pick six ... add the extra point and missou covers 13.5 ... or the fighting illini are never in the game and it's a blowout ... that's about how the rest of the season will go for U of I ... if it doesn't, i will be shocked ...

Projected starting safety Garrett Edwards didn't
return for his senior season. Walt Aikens started at safety as a true
freshman last fall but was dismissed from school, has transferred after
an off season arrest, time spent in jail last summer. Starting safety Supo Sanni last week was lost for the year with a knee injury. Sophomore starting cornerback Terry Hawthorne was lost last week with a 'stress reaction' in his foot for four to six weeks. Zook moved a running back (Justin Green) to cornerback, he will likely start against Mizzou. Two wide receivers were moved to the defensive backfield late last week (Steve Hull to safety, Jack Ramsey to cornerback). Starting cornerback Tavon Wilson was playing safety last week. Green took his place while the other starting cornerback, Travon Bellamy, hasn't been able to hold a starting job during his career at Illinois. Illinois recruited Trulon Henry
out of junior college last winter and Saturday will be his first
college action at the other safety. Illinois has speed in their front
seven but not a whole lot of size or depth to hold up all game against a
power running attack.
Add in that Mizz returns 4 starters on O Line, so Gabbert could have a field day. Mizz WR are inexperienced but talented.

Chargers62, MU's QB is Gabbert. Gilbert i the new starter for Texas. But your right about what matters. MU rolls! I'm very interested in the changes in the Defensive secondary. Look for more physical play and tighter coverage! MU by 20+
