****Official 2013-14 Missouri Tiger Football Repository Thread****

['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.


Premium In-State Players:

Roderick Johnson: **** OT, Florissant, MO.
Monte Harrison: **** WR, Lee's Summit, MO.
Jimmy Swain: **** LB, Lee's Summit, MO

Not only is he not taking the job, he's not going to leverage the offer for more money.

He'd be stupid not to use it as leverage.

Listening to that interview with Mike Alden....wow Mizzou is going to be all over the place with Women's BB, Women's VB, Men's Wrestling, Men's BB on CBS and then The SEC CG on CBS.

That's a lot of exposure for the college.

College Gameday is setting up here in Indianapolis for the Michigan State-Ohio State game. Already seeing some of the fans for both teams milling around downtown. Have my MU jacket on today and have been stopped by a couple of fans who have said they like seeing the Tigers having a good season but just don't see them getting by Auburn.

One OSU fan I ran into told me he would like to see the MU beat Auburn just to shut up everyone calling for Auburn leapfrog them if they beat MU. When I told him if we beat Auburn don't think we won't be saying the same thing he just kinda laughed.

I am an OSU fan, and I have said it numerous times on here, and I will say it again, I think Mizzou is going to roll Auburn.

Everyone keeps talking about Auburn's "magic" year, but MU to me has had just as great a year. I know it sounds corny to say it but Josey putting the finishing touches on the aTm game with the long TD run just was fitting.

Auburn stopped Bama's offense enough to win, but everyone knows that Bama's offense isn't as good as it has been in years past. I think Mizzou has the best offense in the SEC. TAMU looked great against sub-par defenses. I fully expect Mizzou to win this game convincingly.

No shit right there.

Awesome video (I really like that song...repetitive though it may be).

You've yet to be fully versed on the ways of Mizzou athletics.

But if any team can do break the curse, it sure looks to be this one...

That isn't the type of relationship he has with Mike Alden. If he wants a raise, he will ask for one. He won't do it at the point of a gun. Alden had every right to end his career after the personal issues and performance issues Gary had...but he didn't. Pinkel has always been loyal to his guys, and Mike Alden is one of his guys.

Here are the uniforms for this week.




They look rather plain and boring.

WTF...

The line has moved 3 points all of a sudden. Mizzou is now favored.

Who was the national guy on the radio yesterday with Petro saying he thought the line should be flipped to Mizzou being favored? Will something....

Maybe a Laurie dropped an eight figure bet on them.
