Missouri Tigers
Missouri is probably the most intriguing team going into the 2006 season. The Tigers defiantly have the starting pitching to make a splash in the Big 12. With the bulk of their producers on offense returning Missouri is many’s pick to finish behind Texas at number 2. Lack of any real returning depth could hurt their chances there but if just one of these pitchers can catch fire the Tigers will be a force to be reckoned with.
