****OFFICIAL BRAGGIN' RIGHTS GAME THREAD****
 

Mizzou's basketball team is currently ranked #25 in the country, and it's the first time we've been ranked in years. However, this game is really a make or break one for us, because many fans will jump right back off the bandwagon if we don't beat the hated Illini tonight.

We haven't beaten Illinois in the Braggin' Rights game since 1999 - an astonishing 8 game losing streak. However, under CMA the last two years, we've lost by a combined 4 points.

Let's get a win tonight! If not, let's at least tackle Chief Illiniwek!!!

Can't wait.
Going to Fox n Hound with a bunch of TCU alums to watch the Poinsettia Bowl, and had to make sure to go early to catch the beginning of the Mizzou game.

I love MU football
but I'd care more about Rhonda Moss' tan line
than anything Bball

Mizzou Basketball hasn't been the same sit ole Stormin' Norman.

I happen to really like Mike Anderson though....I'm hoping he gets MU back to the days of Doug Smith/Anthony Peeler/John Brown/Al Eberhard/Willie Smith/Kim Anderson/Jim Kennedy/Nathan Buntin/Derrick Chievous/Lee Coward/Ricky Frazier/Jon Sunvold & Steve Stipanovich.

so PUMPED UP about this game. One hour to go.

The best team MU's ever had was with Quin Snyder in 2002 and they shit their pants that season and finished 4th in the Big12.

They will never get back to that level.

Illini 78 MU 70

That team was better than when they went undefeated in the Big 8 in 94?

What about when they were ranked #1 with Anthony Peeler and Doug Smith?

What about the Stipo and Sunvold days?

You need to get up to date on your Mizzou history if you think the 02 team was our best ever.

Good luck guys. Illinois pretty much sucks now that Self has been gone awhile though.
