MU ***Mizzou @ Texas A&M*** - Page 37

Mizzou fans should be thankful as hell that we have Pinkel.

There's something to be said for understanding where your program falls in the big scheme of things. Unfortunately, Mizzou will never be a perennial National Title contender. What they should be, however, is a perennial top-25 team. Largely, Pinkel has made this possible, while greatly improving facilities and recruiting well.

In my view, this is about as well as Mizzou can reasonably expect. When things line up especially well, we'll have an even better year. Perhaps like the ride we're on now? In short, though, we're lucky to have him.

*Naturally, this doesn't mean that anyone is above criticism. This is a completely separate issue.

Agreed. The thing that could change this paradigm would be landing a top 5 current coach or, even better, an all-time coach. You know, a Davaney/Bryant/Osborne.

Otherwise, I'll be happy with where this program is. Missouri should be a top 25 program that is in the top 30 most years and has 2-3 years a decade where it can contend for the conference title.

Let's not forget the genius fans that wanted Steck fired as well.

BTW, WTF was Vegas smoking on their line? I mean, they are typically pretty accurate but the line today was irrationally bad.

Let's hope we can say a similar thing regarding Yost by seasons end. If he dials up six more offensive gameplans like the one today, that shouldn't be a problem.

Musburger & Herbstreit announced during the Ohio State/Wisky game that they'll be in Columbia next Saturday night at 7pm on ABC.

I assume that means GameDay will also be in Columbia that morning too.

Rams Fan · 10-16-2010, 09:33 PM

I really want to drive to Columbia next week from St. Louis to go to the game. If they win next week and beat Nebraska, WE'RE TALKING BCS CHAMPIONSHIP.

If you were a fan of the Rams, you'd see why I'd overreact like that.

So your a Mizzou/Rams fan? How is does it feel to have an Sooner for your QoTF? That would be awkward for me.

It's kinda weird, but it's not like he played QB for KU.

I see your point, but i dislike the Sooners more for some reason.

Awkward? If the Chiefs had a QB that young and promising, he could be an Al Qaeda grad and I'm not sure it would be awkward.
