Where is Missouri Football in Polls After South Carolina Win?
A week ago, Missouri football was barley in the top 20 of both the AP Top 25 and the coaches' poll. But with another victory, and few other problems taking losses, the Tigers continued their climb up the polls.
How far did they get this week? Let's just say that heading into Mizzou's bye, it's looking more likely that next week's SEC East showdown at No. 1 Georgia will be a top-15 matchup (especially with No. 8 Oregon at No. 13 Utah on Saturday).
