Spence said the biggest change for taxpayers who pay in person will be location. “The office has moved since last year and we are now in our new location at 35 Court Square in Howell County Office Building across the street from the former location in the Howell County Courthouse.” Spence said, “ Habits are hard to break and I’m sure the Howell County Circuit Clerk’s Office who now occupies our former office in the courthouse will appreciate folks spreading the word of the change in location.” The collector’s office had been in the courthouse for over 80 years. Taxpayers have until December 31 every year to pay their current year taxes without a penalty. Taxpayers may pay: in person, by mail, online or (new this year) place in a “drop box” at the new location at 35 Court Square after hours during tax season.

MoDOT prepares for winter with statewide drill
The chill in the air and the falling leaves mean winter weather will be here soon. To prepare, the Missouri Department of Transportation is stocking salt and preparing equipment to be ready when winter weather is here. To test our crews’ readiness, MoDOT will hold a statewide drill on Thursday, Nov. 2. The drill tests MoDOT’s winter battle plan to ensure its readiness to get travelers back on Missouri roadways as quickly as possible after winter storms. “Over 3,200 MoDOT employees are involved in our winter operations, including every maintenance crew across the state,” said State Maintenance Engineer Becky Allmeroth. “The annual drill helps to make sure we all know our roles during a storm, and we can do our jobs successfully.” During the drill, MoDOT employees will react to a simulated forecast of significant snow for the entire state. The department’s emergency operations centers will activate and maintenance employees will be deployed to MoDOT’s 1,500 trucks. Emergency communications systems will also be tested. “One of the most valuable parts of the drill is to measure our snowplow assignments by driving routes we may have modified since the previous winter season. As we open new roads and lanes we must modify our snow See MoDOT on Page 7

Liberty Eagles’ football season ends at Ava by Brian Ingalls Sports Writer brian@mvstandard.com
The Ava Bears remain undefeated. Rushing the ball 71 times for 491 yards, the number-one seed Bears were eventually too much for the Liberty Eagles during Friday night’s second-round District game, which saw Ava grab a 39-22 victory and advance to the championship to face Mountain Grove later this week. It was the Bear’s grinding rushing attack that caught up with the Eagles. Beginning with the last Ava drive in the first-half and stretching into the second-half, the Bears scored touchdowns on five consecutive possessions without completing a single pass. By that time, Ava had taken a tenuous 13-7 halftime lead and turned it into a 39-14 fourth quarter advantage. Quarterback Caleb Johnson and senior running back Quincy McDonald did most of the damage, combining for 33 carries and 331 yards on the night plus four touchdowns.
Liberty’s offense looked sharp as well in the first quarter. The Eagles opened the game with a eight-play, 63-yard drive for a touchdown. Things got much tougher the rest of the way, however. The Bears defense held the Eagles to only four more first-downs in the firsthalf, and forced three Liberty turnovers during the game. The Eagles’ leading rusher Kole Orchard was held to under fifty yards for the game, and Ava’s defensive front totaled four sacks. Despite Ava’s stingy defense, an Eagles touchdown mid-way through the third quarter had Liberty just five points behind. Four straight pass completions by Jaris Acklin to receivers Andrew Holden and Colten Foster cut the Bears lead to 19-14 and had the explosive Liberty offense moving again. The Eagles had gone from facing a third an 18 from their own 32-yard line, to an end-zone celebration in just five plays. The problem was stopping Ava. The Bears got the ball back on the kickoff and kept pounding out first-downs.
Ava finished the night with 26 first-downs, and following the Eagles touchdown, the Bears scored 20 unanswered points to pull away from Liberty in the third and fourth quarters. The loss marked the first time the Liberty Eagles will miss the District championship game since 2007, and sent Ava into the finals where they will host Mountain Grove. The winner will likely square off against the sixtime State champion Lamar Tigers the following week. Out of eight South Central Association teams, four will still be playing this Friday. Both Salem and Thayer advanced to the championship in their respective district tournaments as well. For Liberty, despite the loss, the game against the undefeated SCA champs on their home turf was competitive. At the beginning, it even looked as if the underdogs might have had the edge as the Eagles stuffed Ava’s first drive, then marched down the field to take a 7-0 lead. A 16-yard run by Tanner Marshall and a 26-yard pass from
Acklin to Jackson Conner highlighted the drive. The Bears responded with a drive of their own, marching 80-yards in 13-plays to tie the game. A 16-yard, spinning, stutter-stepping run by Johnson, followed by another 17-yard dash quickly put the Bears in Eagles’ territory. Liberty’s defense forced the Bears to face a thirddown on three separate occasions during the drive, but each time the Bears came up with the necessary yards. On third and six from mid-field, McDonald gained seven. On third and 11 at the Liberty 38-yard line, Johnson gained 21 yards. On third and goal from the one, Johnson punched across the goal
line for the touchdown. The game remained tied 7-7 for most of the second quarter thanks to some sloppy play. Both teams traded punts. Then both teams traded interceptions. Orchard picked off a pass inside the 20-yard line to stop an Ava scoring threat, but the Eagles were forced to punt the ball back to the Bears just three plays later. No matter. An Ava fumble recovered by Coltin Weldon gave the ball back to Liberty. It wasn’t until the final Ava possession of the half that any offense show up. Starting with great field position at mid-field following an second interception, the Bears got a 15-yard run from McDonald to start

the drive. Runs by Stephen Copeland, McDonald, and Johnson picked up two firstdowns and gave the Bears a first-and-goal at the five. Two plays later, Ava scored and took at 13-7 lead into the locker room. It was a sign of things to come as Ava would score touchdowns on their first four possessions of the second half. Liberty’s offense wouldn’t keep up. The Eagles went three-and-out to open the second half, and the Bears promptly drove 67-yards in 9-plays to take a 19-7 lead. Liberty appeared to get stopped again, but a 16-yard pass to Holden on thirdand-18 gave the Eagles new life. Marshall ran for a 10yard gain on fourth and two as the Eagles crossed midfield. Acklin next passed to Foster for 12, then Foster again for nine, and finally connected with Holden again, this time for a 21-yard touchdown. Liberty was still in the game, trailing 19-14 with plenty of time left. Unfortunately, the Bears had enough time to keep scoring and they did. Johnson got loose for a 39-yard touchdown on Ava’s next drive. The Bears next converted a Liberty fumble into six more points with a five-play, 42yard drive. By the time the fourth quarter began, Ava had a 31-14 lead. The Bears made it 39-14 with a final, time-consuming drive in the fourth quarter that used 13-plays to drive 74-yards for the score. The Eagles got their offense on track for one last effort of their own. Orchard passed to Holden, Conner, and Foster to drive 59 yards in seven plays. A nine-yard touchdown pass to Conner made it 39-22 Ava, but with time running out, the Eagles couldn’t get any closer. Ava took the victory and the Eagles headed home to prepare for next year.

First Baptist Church in Mountain View will serve as one of around 4,500 U.S. locations collecting gift-filled shoeboxes for children living in pover-
ty overseas through the Samaritan’s Purse project Operation Christmas Child—the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind. During National Collection Week, November 13 to 20, area residents will donate shoeboxes—filled with school supplies, hy-
At the helm of each state department is a director. The director is appointed by the governor and then the appointment is confirmed by the Missouri Senate. Since he was elected in November, the governor has been hand-picking professionals from across the country to help reform, strengthen and restructure state government. He did not use political favors, he chose qualified professionals who would work in the best interest of our state and its citizens. Last week, I introduced the directors of the departments of Natural Resources, Corrections, Agriculture and Revenue. This week, I will introduce you to the final three department officials that have been appointed by our governor since he was elected. Dr. Randall Williams was confirmed as the new director of the Department of Health and Senior Services on May 9. Dr. Williams is an obstetrician and gynecologist who has delivered more than 2,000 babies. He has served as a physician in combat zones in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Haiti, for which he was recognized as the Triangle Red Cross Humanitarian of the Year. He previously served as the Deputy Secretary of Health and State Health Director for the Department of Health and Human Services in North Carolina Chlora Lindley-Myers was named the director of the Department of Insurance, Financial Institutions and Professional Registration on March 6. Her appointment was confirmed by the Senate on April 13. She has held a variety of senior level positions in all branches of state government in Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee. She has also been a leader in the regulatory and insurance industries, as well as within the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). During her time as the deputy commissioner of Tennessee’s Department of Commerce and Insurance, she was awarded the Robert Dineen Award for Outstanding Service and Contribution to the State Regulation of Insurance. On Jan. 2, the governor named Charles (Drew) Juden as the new director of the Department of Public Safety. His appointment was confirmed by the Senate on Feb. 8. Prior to his appointment, Mr. Juden served as the director of the Sikeston Department of Public Safety. His career in Sikeston began in 1978, when he served as one of the department’s first public safety officers. Previously, he served as a member of the Board of Directors of the SEMO Major Case Squad, SEMO Drug Task Force and is the founding member of the SEMO Bomb Team. In 2015, he served as the president of the Missouri Police Chief’s Association. As always, I appreciate it when groups from around Missouri and from our community back home come to visit me at the Capitol. If you would like to arrange a time to come and visit me in Jefferson City, or if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my Capitol office at (573) 751-1882.

With Halloween only a few days away, unfortunately American taxpayers were greeted with the wrong kind of ‘tricks’ this week. On Tuesday, it was uncovered that the Department of Justice under then Attorney General Eric Holder was picking and choosing what organizations to make settlement payments to, based on if they were liberal or conservative. That’s right, more rouge agency heads and bureaucrats picking winners and losers to award your tax dollars to based on if they were liberal enough to align with the administration’s political views. This shouldn’t be the case. In the House of Representatives this week, we passed legislation to stop this practice, to end these Obama-Holder behind closed door deals and to add transparency to what the government does with your tax dollars. The appropriately named Sunshine for Regulations and Regulatory Decrees and Settlements Act makes sure that the government can no longer settle disputes behind closed doors with your tax dollars. Your government cannot operate in a shroud of secrecy – the public must be involved. The government is accountable to the taxpayer, and it should be as open and transparent as possible. That is why I have supported efforts to audit things like the Federal Reserve and require agencies to institute reforms to cut down on unnecessary waste and abuse while explicitly detailing how they use each tax dollar. The efforts in the U.S. House this week were accompanied by an announcement from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that they would be ending the practice of “sue and settle.” “Sue and settle” agreements occur when a federal agency like the EPA accepts a lawsuit from an outside radical group and then, rather than defend itself, settles the lawsuit out of court in a closed-door agreement. These agreements involve the U.S. taxpayer paying attorney fees for the radical organization as well as accepting the implementation of new bureaucratic regulations harmful to American consumers. Ending the practice of “sue and settle” is something I have spearheaded in the U.S. House for several years and have advanced legislation with bipartisan support each Congress to end it. Under the Obama Administration, these lawsuits resulted in more than 100 new regulations and tens of millions of tax dollars spent on compliance costs. This change from the Obama Administration’s EPA to the Trump White House will now prevent radical liberal groups from taking Missourians’ tax dollars and imposing burdensome government regulations. Upon announcing the change, President Trump’s EPA Administrator, Scott Pruitt, said, “The days of regulation through litigation are over… I’d like to thank the President and acknowledge others, including Rep. Jason Smith, who have worked with us to bring this corruption to light.” It is the responsibility of your government to be an unbiased, good steward of taxpayer resources, not treating them as their slush fund piggy bank to award whatever cause most aligns with their own political agenda. I am glad we took action this week to prevent this practice from occurring and am hopeful that the United States Senate will advance the Sunshine for Regulations and Regulatory Decrees and Settlements Act. It is also encouraging to see agencies under this new administration proactively ending this payout practice even without legislation. That is the kind of change I support and the type of cultural change which Washington needs.

From Page One Gonzales was transported to the Howell County Jail where he is being charged with first degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful use of weapon-shoot at/from motor vehicle, at person, motor vehicle,
building-death or injury. He is currently being held on a $1,000,000 bond. The charges set forth in an indictment are merely accusations, and each defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
From Page One ber of Commerce is open Monday and Tuesday 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Wednesday and Friday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. For more information please call the chamber office at 417-934-2794. In other chamber news, there will be a “Holly Jolly
Christmas Pre-Sale” at the Mountain View Chamber of Commerce on Saturday, November 11 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Vendors will include direct sales company representatives as well as crafters and bakers.
From Page One Force Base where the Navy command is headquartered. As a Navy master-at-arms, Sapaugh protects equipment and important assests on the base. The Navy’s presence aboard an Air Force base in the middle of America may seem like an odd location given its distance from any ocean; however, the central location allows for the deployment of aircraft to both coasts and the Gulf of Mexico on a moment’s notice. This quick response is key to the success of the nuclear
deterrence mission. “The safety of our country is so important and I’m glad that I get to directly be a part of this mission,” said Sapaugh. Sailors serving from America’s heartland take pride in the vital mission they support as well as the nuclear deterrence they help provide. “Serving in the Navy means that I am providing a future for my daughters and that I’m a part of something that is bigger than myself,” said Sapaugh.
From Page One during the drill. In rural areas, crews will deploy after 8 a.m. In urban areas, the drill will not begin until after 9 a.m. The exercise should be completed by 3 p.m. The drill isn’t the only element to MoDOT’s winter weather operations. All maintenance employees complete an annual winter skills training that serves as a refresher course for plowing snow. The training assures
that proper equipment operation, plowing techniques and safety measures are fresh on employees’ minds as winter approaches. Every piece of equipment – every truck, motor grader, snow blower, and tractor – is inspected to ensure proper operation. “Our ultimate goal is to handle the first snowfall like we’ve been plowing snow all year,” said Allmeroth. “Careful planning and preparation mean our crews can mobilize when needed and our equipment will be ready.” The Missouri Department of Transportation annually spends an average of $45 million to keep roads clear in the winter and help ensure motorists get to their destinations safely and quickly.

peared in our visioning guide. Finally, it has moved from a dream and a concept into a reality!” The university’s matching portion of the $404,274 project will come from donations, cash and in-kind, Bennett pointed out. “A significant aspect of this project is that it will be built without the use of operational funds or reserves,” he noted. The 850-seat venue will provide the university and the greater West Plains community an outdoor venue for spectator events, concerts, rallies, films and theatrical performances, Bennett said. Utilizing the natural terrain of the area, seating will face a theatrical-style stage, providing an enjoyable atmosphere and environment in which to view entertainment, he added. In addition to the university’s use, the amphitheater will be available by reservation through the University/ Community Programs (U/CP) Department for activities and events sponsored by various community and private organizations and the general public,
Bennett said. Funds from the grant also will be used to acquire a house and property at the corner of Franklin and West Main Streets adjacent to the bell tower, which will create accessibility and higher visibility to the amphitheater, said Scott Schneider, director of business and support services. While the concept for the amphitheater’s design is in place, construction plans still need to be developed, Schneider said, so the next step will be the hiring of an architect to complete those plans. After the plans have been developed and approved, the project will then go out for bid sometime in early 2018, he added. “With the addition of the renovation of the old post office into Hass-Darr Hall, the amphitheater will provide a ‘book-end’ to our campus footprint,” Bennett said. “The amphitheater project will complete the transformation of our campus and enhance the college experience of our students by bringing Missouri State-West Plains to the next level.”

Dr. Oleksandr Halytskyy and Dr. Linda Wangui join OMC Medical Group Solo Travel Savings Tips for Retirees Dear Savvy Senior, Can you recommend some good travel companies that offer good deals for single travelers? I’ve taken a couple tours since I retired a few years ago, but the single-supplement fee really cuts into my budget. Solo Sally Dear Sally, Solo traveling is a growing trend among baby boomers and retirees. Nearly 1-in-4 who travel today, go it alone according to a recent Visa Global Intentions Study. But one of the biggest drawbacks among solo travelers is the single supplemental fee – which is an extra fee charged to single travelers who stay in a double occupancy room alone. To help you avoid this extra charge, more and more travel companies and cruise lines are making adjustments to accommodate the growing solo-traveler market. Here are several to check into. Singles Travel There are a variety of travel companies today that specialize in vacations for solo travelers, including Singles Travel International (SinglesTravelIntl.com) and Singles Travel Getaways (SinglesTravelGetaways.com). Both companies offer tours, cruises and adventures in the U.S. and overseas, and will match you with a roommate to avoid the single supplement, or won’t charge you if a match can’t be arranged. General Tour Operators Some big operators in this category that have lots of solo travelers include Intrepid Travel (IntrepidTravel.com), which handles more than 100,000 travelers each year, sending them to more than 100 countries. And G Adventures (Gadventures.com), which has more than 700 tours around the globe, and offers a variety of travel styles. Both of these companies can pair you with a roommate, and some tours offer your own room option for an additional fee. And for higher-end luxury travel check out Abercrombie & Kent (AbercrombieKent.com), which offers a 50 percent single supplement discount on their select small group solo travel trips and cruises, and Tauck (Tauck.com), which has no single supplement on their European river cruises. 50-Plus Travel If you’re interested in trips designed for adults 50 and older consider ElderTreks (ElderTreks.com), Road Scholar (RoadScholar.org) and Overseas Adventure Travel (OATtravel.com). ElderTreks specializes in exotic adventures worldwide, and will match single travelers with roommates on most of its trips, and doesn’t charge if a match can’t be arranged. Road Scholar specializes in worldwide learning adventures, and has designated trips that offer the same price for solo travelers as for those traveling in pairs. And Overseas Adventure Travel, which operates in Asia, Africa, Europe, South America, the Middle East, Cuba, Australia and New Zealand, has free single supplements on all its land tours and either free or low-cost single supplements on its small-ship adventures. Cruise Lines If cruising is your thing, there are a number of cruise lines that have some ships with single-occupancy cabins, including Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL.com), Royal Caribbean (RoyalCaribbean.com) and Vantage Deluxe World Travel’s river ships (VantageTravel.com). Or, consider booking a cruise at SinglesCruise.com, which uses a variety of different cruise lines for their single customers. They provide roommate matching. Solo Women For solo women travelers, there are a host of tour companies and clubs, like GutsyWomenTravel.com, Women-Traveling.com, SerenDipityTraveler.com, TheWomensTravelGroup.com and Womens-Travel-Club.com that will either match you up with a roommate, or reduce their single supplement fee. Travel Partner If you’d rather find a suitable travel partner before you book your next trip, there are a number of free websites that can help you here too. See Travbuddy.com, TravelFriend. us and TravelersMeeting.com. Or, to find a cruise buddy try CruiseMates.com, which has a message board where users can post roommate requests. For more information on solo travel, check out SoloTravelerWorld.com, which offers solo travel tips, destinations and stories, and also publishes a monthly list of solo travel deals. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

MDC and CFM encourage deer hunters to Share the Harvest The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) and the Conservation Federation of Missouri (CFM) encourage deer hunters around the state to share their harvests through the state’s Share the Harvest program. Administered by MDC and CFM, Share the Harvest coordinates the efforts of thousands of deer hunters, numerous participating meat processors, many local supporting organizations, and a handful of statewide sponsors to help feed hungry Missourians. The program works by

deer hunters donating their extra venison -- from several pounds to whole deer -- to participating meat processors throughout the state who grind and package the deer meat. The packaged venison is then given to food banks and food pantries for distribution to Missourians in need of food assistance. “Hunters started Share the Harvest because they saw a need in their communities,” said MDC Director Sara Pauley. “And hunters remain the driving force behind this popular program that helps feed our
fellow Missourians who are in need. We sincerely thank the thousands of deer hunters who support Share the Harvest, along with the many participating meat processors and sponsors.” Processing fees are covered entirely or in part by numerous local sponsors, along with statewide sponsors that include: MDC, CFM, Shelter Insurance, Bass Pro Shops, Missouri Chapter Safari Club International, Missouri Chapter National Wild Turkey Federation, Midway USA Inc., Missouri Food Banks Association, and United Bow-

hunters of Missouri Hunters should contact individual processors to determine what funds are available. The cost of processing is the hunter’s responsibility when funds to help cover the full cost of processing are not available. “Share the Harvest is a partnership of citizens, agencies, organizations, and corporations working together to provide healthy, protein-rich meat to those who may otherwise go without,” said CFM Executive Director Brandon Butler. “Hunters across Missouri should be proud of this outstanding program.” Nearly 4,300 Missouri deer hunters donated more than 198,000 pounds of venison to the program last deer season. Since the program was started in 1992, Share the Harvest has provided more than 3.6 million pounds of lean, healthy venison to help feed hungry Missourians. Find participating processors in MDC’s “2017 Fall Deer & Turkey Hunting Regulations and Information” booklet, online at huntfish.mdc.mo.gov/ hunting-trapping/species/ deer/deer-share-harvest, or by calling MDC at 573751-4115 or CFM at 573634-2322.

DONATING DEER FROM CWD COUNTIES Share the Harvest is committed to providing healthy venison to help feed hungry Missourians. Deer donated to Share the Harvest that were harvested in the seven Missouri counties where chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been found will be tested for the deer disease. Deer that test positive for CWD will not be used and will be properly disposed of. The seven counties are: Adair, Cole, Franklin, Jefferson, Linn, Macon, and St. Clair. CWD is a deadly illness for white-tailed deer and other members of the deer family, called cervids. MDC is working with conservation partners to find cases and limit the spread of CWD. Based on
CWD testing MDC has conducted, the disease appears to be relatively rare in the state at this time with only 42 cases found in seven counties out of more than 76,000 deer tested around the state. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there have been no documented cases of CWD in humans. As a safeguard, the CDC recommends hunters strongly consider having their harvested deer tested for CWD before eating the meat if the animal was harvested from an area where CWD has been found. The CDC also recommends not consuming an animal that tests positive for the disease. For more information on CWD, visit mdc. mo.gov/cwd.

The Friends of the Thomasville Community Center will present “ It’s Almost Christmas Bazaar and Bake Sale” to be held at the Community Center, Saturday, December 9, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. There will be handmade, and other gift items, flea market finds, a dessert bar and baked foods. We invite all our generous friends and neighbors to donate items for the bazaar and flea market section. Arrangements can be made for a drop off or pick up of items. This event is a fundraiser to help defray costs of repairs and furnishings to the building following the spring flood. Flood waters reached a level of 52 inches inside the building, requiring intensive cleaning, painting, and other repairs. Available at the, event is an item everyone will want, a set of note cards with sketches of 5 “icons” of Thomasville. The artist
is Kim Malone, daughter of Claude and Doris Malone, who completed in the sketches in the 1980’s. The sketches include the general store, the gas station, the bridge, and the school aka the community center. This item is available to purchase prior to the event. Luckily, a copy of the sketches were found on the second floor of one of the homes flooded in April, 2017. The dessert bar will offer some of Thomasville’s finest “good eats”. Shoppers will be able to sit and enjoy a dessert and beverage, or take home a baked item. If you ever had dessert at the former Rivers Edge Fish and Grill, then you will want to visit this segment of the day’s event. Another part of the event which will appeal to a lot of shoppers is the section of Flea Market Finds. A wide variety of items will be displayed on tables, and there will also be some children’s bicycles to
purchase. The crafts and gifts section will offer items including flower arrangements, Christmas arrangements and wreaths, concrete leaf casts, crocheted items, placemats, aprons, etc. For a small donation, one can receive an opportunity to win a handmade queen size quilt. There is also a very unique boat paddle woodburned with the route of the Eleven Point River, and a guided float trip on the Eleven Point River will be available for purchase. Flyers are available for posting to advertise the event, and regular posts are made on Facebook, at the Thomasville Eleven Point Valley Community Center page. Questions may be directed to Brenda Bell at 417764-334. We hope to see many of our friends, neighbors and new acquaintances on December 9 at the Thomasville Community Center.
Well Missouri, time to save the season. Missouri notched its second blowout win against an overmatched opponent in as many weeks on Saturday, winning at Connecticut 52-12. Now, after two relatively easy nonconference wins, the first backto-back wins in Barry Odom’s two seasons as head coach, Missouri (3-5, 0-4 in SEC play) finishes with four SEC games, all against struggling teams. It all comes with a grain of salt since all Missouri did was beat two bad teams, but there is plenty of bad left on the schedule, and, as crazy as it sounds, the Tigers have a real shot at going to a bowl game. Saturday’s win ended the Tigers’ 11-game road losing streak. After falling behind 2-0 early after a botched snap led to a safety, Missouri went to work on the overmatched defense of UConn (3-5). After the gaffe, the Tigers scored on their next seven full drives, not counting a short possession to run out
the clock at the end of the first half, and led 45-5 in the third quarter. The Huskies’ defense, which entered the game ranked last in the country in pass yards allowed, provided an almost comical lack of resistance to Missouri’s passing game. Tiger quarterback Drew Lock completed 31 of his 37 passes for 377 yards and five touchdowns with no interceptions. Now comes a November that could have big impacts for Odom and the program moving forward. The Tigers get Florida and Tennessee at home, and then finish with road trips to Vanderbilt and Arkansas. Florida just fired its coach, Tennessee and Vanderbilt have yet to win an SEC game, and Arkansas finally got its first SEC win on Saturday after rallying from a 31-7 deficit. Of course, Missouri still doesn’t have an SEC win either, so the Tigers won’t be casting many stones from their black-and-gold glass house. None of these games are in the bag. First comes the Florida game
(11 a.m. on ESPN2) on Saturday at Faurot Field. It might be the most pivotal of them all. The Gators (3-4, 3-3 in SEC play) fired head coach Jim McElwain after a 42-7 loss to rival Georgia on Saturday. Former Miami head coach Randy Shannon took over as the interim head coach. Florida has lost three in a row, and the offense has not been good again, ranking 113th nationally in scoring at 21.3 points per game. Of course, Missouri’s defense has been bad against power-conference teams this season. The Tiger offense has been great when it plays bad defenses. Florida has had good defenses recently, but this year’s unit is just 66th nationally in points allowed per game. It’s hard to project how a team will respond to a coach getting fired. For all the flaws, Florida still has a good amount of talent on the roster. Missouri began the week as a slight favorite. If the Tigers win, a trip to a bowl begins to seem realistic.
