The Missouri Tigers spent four weeks inside the top 10 of the AP poll. They started the season as one of the top teams expected to make a playoff push.

But in Missouri's first big test, the Tigers fell 41-10 to then-No.25 Texas A&M. Their playoffs hopes were then virtually closed in a 34-0 loss to Alabama in Week 9, and sealed shut with a 34-30 loss to South Carolina in Week 12.

Most of the expectations for Missouri were built off the success of last year's 10-2 season, the best for the program since 2014.

Trying to answer the question of just how big of a letdown 2024 was Missouri, Tigers football reporters Joey Van Zummeren and Michael Stamps discussed what has gone wrong for the team in the "All Things Mizzou" podcast.
