I do. If anything, that is overselling KU's chances in that game given that KenPom is still including preseason projections in his weighting (where KU was much, much higher than MU). Based on how both teams have actually performed so far this season and the location of the game, it's effectively a 50/50 game. The Vegas odds should more or less bear that out when they come out too.

And FYI, another projection system Torvik (who likely includes less preseason projections in his own weighting) has KU as only a 1 PT favorite: https://barttorvik.com/team.php?team=Kansas&year=2023

Some reporter reporting something he ‘heard’ versus the actual coach of the team putting himself on record on Twitter denying it. One has receipts, the other has . . . . . . . wonder which one is lying. :hmmm:

:rolleyes:

The reporter has his entire career to lose by reporting something false. What does the coach have to lose by denying it?

It's obvious enough what is going on here.

Wouldn't have expected much more than that response, yeah. Wait for the Vegas odds, they'll come out exactly as I'm saying.

Yeah, like Brooke Pryor and how her career was ruined? Lol.

IF there is any truth to Mizzou-KU not matching up in the Liberty Bowl and they were originally slated to, it didn’t get called off because Mizzou is ****ing afraid of KU football. That’s the biggest pile of horseshit ever.

We're resorting to comparing Brooke Pryor to one of the top college football reporters of the past couple decades now?

Time to give it up.

Point being ‘lying’ or reporting false information doesn’t cost you your career nowadays. Maybe a long time ago, but not in todays climate. The ‘truth’ is ever changing. Besides, isn’t this the same guy who made jokes about Mixon beating the shit out of a girl after the video came out? Something about OU fans still being able to chant ‘Boomer Sooner’ and having to apologize for it afterwards. Classy guy, that one.

Not having any trouble. I just wouldn't say that Mizzou is scared they are gonna lose or just like I'd say that Kansas wasn't scared they'd lose in a basketball game to Mizzou, but what if. It's not worth it to me to play KU football. Plus **** you guys for the last decade of you wanting no part of MU. Eat my ass Bearcat, you're as fictional as a Jayhawk.

Tom, sorry to say this, but you are 100% wrong about Brett McMurphy. He was not lying or reporting false information. He's got a very good source and wouldn't have put himself out there on the radio the way he did today if he wasn't 100% sure. He gains nothing out of just making this up and said Mizzou would play East Carolina in the Gasparilla Bowl.

The only way I can see this being wrong is if Mizzou wants to try and save face and says bring on KU football.

At some point you have to just sit down and think with simple logic.

If they were scared of the big bad chickens, why would they be scheduling a series of games (that actually matter) soon? They wouldn't.

It's ****ing stupid, like his Nebraska prediction.

What was his Nebraska prediction?

That's news to me, can I get a link?

Also I'm not saying there scared.

Is it true that Mizzou is refusing to play Kansas in the Liberty Bowl? You gotta be kidding me. And why? :shrug:

Read through the thread. It's discussed at length.
