['Hamas' Jenkins]

We have two things to look forward to this year:

1) The potential beginning of the Maty Mauk Era. Mauk represents the best chance for this program to get back to a level of respectability after horrendous QB play cost us multiple games last year.

2) The last year of the Gary Pinkel era. Pinkel's entrenched cronyism won't play in a conference this competitive, especially if he couples his abysmal gameday coaching with lackadaisical, worst-in-conference recruiting. Pinkel was the formerly adequate meal that has now turned into a four pound bowel obstruction. It's time to jam a Fleet's enema up our collective asses.

Here is the schedule. We dodge Alabama, LSU, and Arkansas in the west and the Non-con is decidedly weaker than years past.

8/31: Murray State
9/7: Toledo
9/21: @ Indiana
9/28: Arkansas State
10/5:@ Vanderbilt
10/12: @ Georgia
10/19:Florida
10/26: South Carolina
11/2:Tennessee
11/9: @ Kentucky
11/23: @ Ole Miss
11/30: aTm

Looks like 6-6. Undefeated in non-con, 2-6 in league play.

I will eventually update the OP with a list of high profile in-state recruits that decide to go elsewhere after a half-assed attempt to gain their services. The inevitable cavalcade of *** rejects, skeezers, skanks, and scalliwags we get will fill out the ranks.


Razors, cyanide capsules, and Jonestown Kool-Aid are available in the break room. Second door on the left.

Since every Mizzou thread eventually dies of AIDS, I recommend starting anti-retroviral therapy immediately. I believe Walgreens covers Express Scripts.

Winning your conference has its own value. Forget the national championship for a second and realize that it will be so, so sweet to win the SEC.

Let's get this rolling.

This. Winning the premier conference in CFB is all we can control today. If that happens, at worst Missouri is, at worst, getting its best bowl game since Woodstock.

Easily as in MSU could beat OSU.

There aren't that many possibilities.

If Florida State wins, they are in.

If Ohio State wins, they are in.

If either of them lose, the SEC champ is in.

If both of them lose, Alabama plays the SEC champ.


That's it.

I know Josey is only a Junior....but both were hurt last year and came back even better this year. Think about it....2 of your key players coming back from injuries to lead the team to the SEC Championship game and then winning it.
