Barry Odom criticized for Arkansas' defensive struggles in first half vs. Mizzou
Barry Odom’s defense struggled against Mizzou’s offense in the first half of the Battle Line Rivalry. Arkansas leads Mizzou at halftime 21-20.
However, Missouri’s 20 first-half points are more than it has averaged in 7 SEC games this season. In fact, the 20 points is more than the Tigers scored in 4 SEC games this year.
The Tigers offense recorded 292 yards, with 139 of them being on the ground in the first half. Quarterback Brady Cook completed 8-of-13 passes for 153 yards; however, his biggest damage has come in the running game. The Tigers signal caller rushed for 125 yards and 1 touchdown in the first half.
Odom, the former Missouri head coach and star defender, caught some criticism by fans due to his defense’s first half performance.

Tell me again how awesome Barry Odom is.
Odom and Briles have done nothing to show they deserved the raises they were gifted by Arkansas. #wps https://t.co/VNdDbgp5dY

Barry Odom. Making opposing qb’s look like Heisman candidates weekly. No matter how bad they are.
