Summary: Episode 38 • The college football season is finally here, and on the latest Eye on the Tigers podcast, columnist Ben Frederickson and Mizzou beat writer Dave Matter dive deep into the Tigers season-opening depth chart and gain insight from one of the SEC’s most decorated players. Mizzou kicks off its season Saturday against Tennessee-Martin as new coordinator Derek Dooley breaks out his offense and quarterback Drew Lock launches what Mizzou hopes is a Heisman Trophy-worthy season. SEC Network analyst Barrett Jones, a former two-time All-American offensive lineman and three-time national champion at Alabama, joins the podcast to reminisce about his memorable appearance on Faurot Field and share his thoughts on Missouri’s chances in the SEC East this year. (Hint: He’s bullish on the Tigers.) He’s also got plenty of recommendations for Mizzou fans planning to visit Tuscaloosa for the Tigers’ Oct. 13 visit to Alabama.
