MU = #2?

[Molitoth]

With USC, Florida, and Now Georgia getting stomped....

Will this be the polls?

#1 Oklahoma
#2 Mizzou!

[beavis]

I'm pretty sure Alabama is going to be shooting up there too.

[kcchiefsus]

Unfortunately I could see Texas and/or Alabama jumping ahead of us. We will move up but the question is by how much.

[Bearcat]

Depending on which poll you look at, Mizzou and LSU are 5 or 6... so, for the AP this week, I'm thinking...

#1 OU
#2 LSU
#3 Mizzou (probably within 10 points of LSU)
#4 Alabama (but only because they're #8... should probably be #1 or #2)
#5 Texas (who knows if they're this good though)

[teedubya]

YES! Lets get your guys hopes REAL high!!

[kcchiefsus]

YES! Lets get your guys hopes REAL high!!

YES! Go **** yourself and die.

I think that's pretty fair. LSU deserves to be ahead of us after that win over Auburn last week. I can't believe Alabama. They are just smoking everyone.

[keg in kc]

OU, LSU, Alabama, Texas, Missouri.

[kstater]

NO, not saying they shouldn't be #2(they shouldn't be #2), but likely #4.

[Bearcat]

Unfortunately I could see Texas and/or Alabama jumping ahead of us. We will move up but the question is by how much.

Eh, Arkansas is a cupcake this season, so Mizzou might still have the edge there. Alabama should jump everyone.

[Bearcat]

I think that's pretty fair. LSU deserves to be ahead of us after that win over Auburn last week. I can't believe Alabama. They are just smoking everyone.

Next week, LSU is @ a pissed off Florida, OU is playing Baylor, and Mizzou is playing Nebraska...... decent chance that after next week OU and Mizzou will be 1 and 2.

[KcMizzou]

I'd take it, but I'm not too worried about it.

Just keep winnin', fellas. :mizzou: :)

[Pablo]

If Bama beats the #3 team in the nation, I see no reason why they shouldn't leapfrog a dormant Mizzou team.

[beavis]

Next week is huge for Mizzou. If we go up there and win that game, then I think the sky is the limit. But being a Mizzou fan, I'm expecting the worse. Even if we would lose, we could still conceivably win out and take the north. But it would really suck being in a sense 2 games down on Nebraska after the first conference game.

[Frazod]

You really should take something for that enflamed vagina of yours. LMAO

[Buehler445]

I'm sure they will say they shouldn't jump much on a bye week, so I don't see them jumping over anyone in front of them that didn't lose.

[Buehler445]

Dude, Nebraska sucks shit. There is no way they lose to Mizzou.

I thought about flying down to see the game, but I think I'll wait a couple of years, because I don't think Mizzou will have much of a problem. That said, it is a big game, and obviously no game can be taken lightly... I just don't think Nebraska will be able to keep up. They aren't quite there yet, but it'll be fun if they can become a powerhouse again, and Mizzou & Kansas can keep winning.

[KcMizzou]

Dude, Nebraska sucks shit. There is no way they lose to Mizzou.
That's what we're afraid of.


Mizzou should win... but man... it's still Nebraska... on the road. I'm a touch nervous.

They were a little sloppy against Buffalo, and have two weeks to prepare... so that should help. No excuses for losing this one.

Wish it'd hurry up and get here, though. Bye weeks suck.

[Bearcat]

[KcMizzou]

I wonder how many times they'll show that play next week.

[Bearcat]

:shake:


:$2500:

LMAO

It's okay, I'd like Mizzou to keep winning... seeing all of the Big 12 teams along with the SEC teams at the top is pretty cool.

[Bearcat]

I wonder how many times they'll show that play next week.

Was that game @Nebraska? I want to say no... ?

[KcMizzou]

Was that game @Nebraska? I want to say no... ?Nah... Home game for Mizzou.

Yeah, would go a long way for the conference if Nebraska can get back to a high level.

[BigRedChief]

polls doesn't matter. Mizzou wins out they will play in the championship.

[Molitoth]

ah yes forgot about LSU....


Alabama is damn good, they deserve being in the top 5 for sure.

[ChiefsCountry]

I wouldnt mind seeing a #1 vs #2 Big 12 championship game at Arrowhead.

[KC_Connection]

Mizzou is totally going to the 'ship.

If they can avoid shitty games like they had agaisnt Buffalo last week.

[Pablo]

Mizzou is totally going to the 'ship.

If they can avoid shitty games like they had agaisnt Buffalo last week.No doubt. NC for sure.

[Frazod]

Both of you - shut it. :mad:

[KcMizzou]

Take your reverse mojo and shove it up your ass. :grr:

[Pablo]

I wouldn't complain guys. You saw how well the reverse mojo from this place worked for KU during basketball season. Even the almighty Jayhawk Lounge reverse mojo didn't stop us from cutting down them nets.

[KcMizzou]

I just wanna get to the Big XII Championship game, and beat OU.

Anything after that is gravy.

The thought of my team being a national championship contender boggles the mind.

Fun as hell, though...

The weak schedule your team has will help.

[Pablo]

:)This is true. I don't even think OU has a real shot against this Mizzou team. With that sort of offense, it doesn't matter how many points they give up...they're gonna get them back.

[Spott]

The weak schedule your team has will help.

It's not our fault that they make us play the beakers every year.

PFT.

Mizzou as a legit NC contender in footbal is something I truly thought I'd never see.

I always assumed I'd see the Chiefs in the Super Bowl before I'd ever see Mizzou as a top 5 football team.

[KChiefs1]

1. OU
2. MU
3. UT
4. BAMA
5. LSU

[Frazod]

It wouldn't surprise me if Alabama passed us in the polls this week - considering how they punked Georgia, I'd say they earned it. Of course, Georgia was extremely overrated, but what the hell.

One of the ESPN talking heads ranked Texas ahead of us in his Top 5 - that's fine, too, since we play them soon. All the better if we take them down.

My Top 5:

1. Gooners
2. Alabama
3. Missouri
4. LSU
5. Texas

[triple]

the road is shaping up to where, for missouri to win the big 12, they will go through one, maybe 2 of the top 5 teams to get there. the case for the championship game will be ironclad if they can do that, but it's a tall order

[Mecca]

I'm 99.9% sure Alabama is put ahead of Missouri.

[KcMizzou]

I'm 99.9% sure Alabama is put ahead of Missouri.OK. :shrug:

[Mecca]

OK. :shrug:

It's SEC and a "traditional power" so to speak I know that's bullshit and all but that's how it works.

You should get to 3 though.....I hope everyone else loses too...cmon everyone lose!

[|Zach|]

That's what we're afraid of.

You know this is a pretty interesting post that reminds me of a conversation I had with a buddy of mine who is a huge Mizzou fan.

He says thinking like the post above is something Chase Daniel does NOT have and that kind of attitude has done a lot for this team.

All the guy knows how to do is win.

He didn't grow up with that Charlie Brown "the football is going to get taken from right under our feet" mentality...that anyone watching this team growing up has. This isn't a knock on the fans it is just a product of what Missouri has gone through as a program with ups and downs and strange ass kicked balls and 5th downs. He grew up winning big class state titles in Texas and watching the Longhorns.

That lingering voice in the back of the head of Mizzou fans from all these years is silent in his head. And I think that has spread to other players.

Kind of interesting.

Booya... down to the 'within 10 points of LSU'. :) (okay, so it wasn't like I went out on a limb... small victories, like Herm's offense)

1.Oklahoma (57) 4-0 1,520

2.LSU (1) 4-0 1,399

3. Missouri 4-0 1,398

3 Big 12 teams in the top 5 and 4 in the top 10.
