I figured it was time to start the new version of this...

2012 Schedule
April 14: Spring Game
Sept. 1: SE Louisiana
Sept. 8: Georgia
Sept. 15: Arizona State
Sept. 22: at South Carolina
Sept. 29: at Central Florida
Oct. 6: Vanderbilt
Oct. 13: Alabama
Oct. 20: OPEN
Oct. 27: Kentucky*101st HOMECOMING*
Nov. 3: at Florida
Nov. 10: at Tennessee
Nov. 17: Syracuse
Nov. 24: at Texas A&M

Still three games to be released here. I'd expect a mid-major in the Sept. 1 game, a FCS team on Sept. 29, and another mid-major on Nov. 17 (to get a November home game on the schedule).

Tough to tailgate when the rain falls in sheets.

You've never seen an SEC tailgate then. Tent cities.

Besides, it wasn't even raining hard at 10am (and if there's anything I've learned about SEC tailgating/gamedaying its that if you aren't milling about by 10am then you're going to look like a n00b).

No, I haven't. Sorry. I suspect it's similat to what we do when the Chiefs play.

I'm in CA. I just saw the rain pouring during the game and a girl I know who was there texted me and said about 30% of the crowd got the hell out just before the delay was called. And from the looks of it, most did not return.

Although it's been years since I've been to Faurot Field (my last forays were 98 and 00) I didn't spend much time in the parking lot. The place wasn't real friendly to KSU folks when we were winning.

Isn't it cute when fans get exited about 3-Stars recruits. And this being the golden age of Missouri Football.

Will you SEC boys keep me apprised of Michael Fanning's fate after that belly to back suplex he put on your RB?

That was a dirty as **** play and I'd like to see the ****ing **** suspended. I was glad to see the MU OLinemen trash him on the two following plays.

The guy is 6'7" and 300# as a true frosh. ****ing animal.

And more than likely dumber than a fence post.

Golden Age of Missouri football is still the Dan Devine era, though this is the next-best one.

As for Printz... he's an awesome get because he gives Missouri QB depth in this class, something I think they have to focus on moving forward (considering the injury problems with Franklin this year and inadequate play from Berkstresser.

He's also a pretty good player. Very productive in a tough football district, good size, good arm strength. He's also very intelligent.

It's also important because it's a solid recruit in a new territory for us.

They can have their pageants that is fine.

Really looking forward to SEC road game tour. Big 12 road games were becoming routine. Big 12 friendliest were in Lincoln. Worst? Lawrence, but what would one expect. Finances tight this year. Hope to start SEC tour next year.

Vandy was perfect weather and the tailgating was crap. I was a little disappointed, to tell you the truth.

Part of the problem right now is that there just isn't a tailgating 'area'. The parking lots are spread out around the stadium and there's no central location like The Grove.

That and the fact that Mizzou has a long LONG way to go to build the tradition that the boys in 'Bama are used to seeing. I'm not sure what they expected to see on the first go-round, in the rain and with the football team struggling pretty badly right now.

SEC schedule released..

Oct. 5 at Vanderbilt
Oct. 12 at Georgia
Oct. 19 FLORIDA
Oct. 26 SOUTH CAROLINA
Nov. 2 TENNESSEE
Nov. 9 at Kentucky
Nov. 23 at Ole Miss
Nov. 30 TEXAS A&M

[DJ's left nut]

I'm honestly reluctant to even get excited about that.

I should be - it's a very doable schedule.

But we're just getting our ass kicked as a matter of course right now and until I see something from this team to suggest that they're ready for prime time, I'm going to have to withhold judgment.

I don't get why Arkansas isn't on the schedule..

Evidently A&M remains the cross-conference rival until otherwise noted.
