COLUMBIA, Mo. -- The home opener for Missouri carries a lot of weight for new coach Barry Odom.The game comes against Eastern Michigan -- the same opponent Missouri played when Odom was a sophomore linebacker for the Tigers. He and his teammates got a win that day, 44-24 back on Sept. 6, 1997.His first home game as coach at his alma mater also carries a bit of pressure after last weekends 26-11 loss at West Virginia to open the season.I tried to look at things that I thought that I did OK, and things that I didnt do well enough, Odom said of his coaching debut.
