I just saw an interesting tweet on Sean Weatherspoon's Twitter page about his plans for the Sept. 5 game against Illinois in St. Louis.
The All-Big 12 linebacker apparently is using the upcoming matchup against Illinois quarterback Juice Williams for inspiration.
"Just finished a stellar workout, hit 475 on the bench easy, almost hit 500, gotta get it soon! 50 days until I squeeze the pulp out of Juice."
Weatherspoon is the key player on a rebuilding Missouri defense with only four returning starters. He apparently has more confidence in the Tigers than most preseason observers.
