Many will view this UConn team that was getting crushed in the air improved, as they have held down their last two opponents on the scoreboard. Those games vs. Temple, and Tulsa were well suited for UConn, as the QBs are not very adept at picking apart any defense. That changes in this one, as Missouri can move the ball as well as any team in the country through the air. While the Tigers defense has had its struggles, I don't see many stops here for the UConn back seven. While Missouri may be a weaker Power-5 Conference team, the speed, depth, and quality of athlete is way ahead of what UConn can put on the field. The Huskies have limited depth and quality in the secondary. I think Missouri is capable of over 500 yards in the air, and will be scoring fast and often. Play on Missouri.
