None of this matters. Fire Pinkel.

[TribalElder]

Cannot believe they are running the MIZ chant right now

[TrebMaxx]

Time to sit Mauk.

[Saul Good]

We suck

['Hamas' Jenkins]

This is a bad football team. They struggled against an FCS school, lost to the worst program in the Big X, barely beat a bad SCAR team, and now they are getting housed at home off a bye against a team w/o its best player.

We just got punked by Georgias waterboy. smfh

[TribalElder]

Great play call

When was the last time we got shut out at home?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Down 27-0, they run a draw on 3rd and 7, and I understand it.

Just an embarrassing showing from the Missouri offense, which just keeps getting worse.

Can't quite believe how badly Mauk has regressed this year. Yes, the WRs aren't as good, but he has been flat awful and bought way too far into the "Maty Football" hype.

Hats off to the Missouri defense, which has played its heart out and was severely let down by the offense consistently putting it in bad spots (and letting it get absolutely no rest).

Aaron Taylor is too much of a moron to realize it, but the Missouri D has done a great job against Georgia's running attack. And Hutson Mason has been in full-on Alex Smith mode.

If Missouri's offense shows up at all and gets competent QB play, this is a pretty goddamn good game.

I don't think Mauk has regressed; his luck has normalized. I remember how conservative we got in the 4th quarter against SCAR last year, particularly on the last drive, and I thought, "Yeah, that makes sense." I didn't even want him to attempt a throw his judgement was so poor.

He had multiple games last year where he should have thrown 3-4 interceptions, but they were bailed out by drops or his receivers making great plays.

In parlance, people thought Mauk was Troy Tulowitzki when he was actually Angel Berroa.

[Rudy tossed tigger's salad]

Two games away from being in the playoff discussion. Have you seen Mauk's TD stats? /Saul

Hello....Alamo Bowl....

Worst game since losing to K-State 66-0 with Jimmy Dougherty behind center.

FWIW, here is an excerpt of a post I made after the SCAR game last year:

I didn’t understand the Mauk hype after the Florida game, and I don’t think anyone does now. If you go back and watch last week’s game you’ll see a player that only hit on half his passes and should have thrown three or four interceptions. Tonight’s performance was every bit as bad as any of Berkstresser’s stinkbombs last year, just luckier. He should have thrown four or five picks in this game. He was terrible in the spring game and made me yearn for Kirk Farmer tonight. The team had absolutely no confidence in him, and I can’t blame them. Every deep ball he threw looked like a punt. South Carolina defenders dropped at least three picks, and he made some terrible decisions that luckily didn’t result in more. It might be the worst game I’ve ever seen a Pinkel QB play. Berkstresser’s 9/30 last year was a better game than that. When the team won’t let you throw when you’re on the 25 and need a touchdown to win you ****ing suck the biggest of donkey balls. Mauk was flat footed on all his throws, he couldn’t throw any pass outside the hashes with any touch, and he constantly made decisions that reminded me of Brett Favre with the talent of Matt Cassel.

He's the same guy.

Man go for a 3 mile run and come back to find MU in the woodshed...
