[kstater]

Here we go....love not being able to watch this on TV!

Yeah, it's weird that Mizzou turned down the opportunity to be on TV so the parade could start at the right time.

[Saul Good]

Did Josey run the opening kickoff back for a TD?

[Saul Good]

Guess not. Just a long return and a 7 play TD drive.
7-0 Mizzou

[Saul Good]

Turnover for Mizzou!!!

[Saul Good]

15 yard run for Josey. Why hasn't this guy been getting the ball more all year?

[Priest31kc]

15 yard run for Josey. Why hasn't this guy been getting the ball more all year?

Same thing as Jamaal last year. Just give him the damn ball.

[Saul Good]

10 straight runs to start the game. TD Josey. 14-0

[Saul Good]

ISU drives the length of the filed, fumbles on 3rd and goal but recover. FG ISU 14-3 Mizzou.

[Saul Good]

39 yard TD pass from Franklin to Egnew. 9 play drive. 21-3 Mizzou

[mnchiefsguy]

Offense looking good.

[Saul Good]

21-3 to end the 1st quarter.

[Saul Good]

Mizzou sacks Steel Panther on 4th down for a turnover on downs.

[Saul Good]

Offense is rolling today. Amazing what happens when you give the ball to your playmaker.

[mnchiefsguy]

Mizzou in the red zone again.

[Saul Good]

Touchdown Mizzou. 4 drives. 4 TDs.

[mnchiefsguy]

TD MIZZOU!

[Saul Good]

8 plays. 71 yards.

[KcMizzou]

Man, this is getting ugly. ISU fumble

[KcMizzou]

And Franklin with the pick 6 :facepalm:

[Saul Good]

God damn it.

[mnchiefsguy]

Well crap, that was not good. Still 28-10 Mizzou. Hopefully that is the only turnover of the day. Franklin need to bounce back on the next drive.

[Saul Good]

Should have been 35-3. Game would have been over.

[KcMizzou]

Hopefully that is the only turnover of the day.No such luck.

Back to back INTs

[Bowser]

No such luck.

Back to back INTs

:spock:

[Saul Good]

Franklin sucks.

[mnchiefsguy]

Franklin sucks.

He's young...but from the sound of the guys on the radio, both of these passes were pretty bad.

[Frazod]

Franklin sucks.

Starting to look that way, isn't it? I really want him to turn the corner, but if he can't perform against the fucking Sucklones......

[Bowser]

Franklin sucks.

Maybe he should consider going the Brad Smith route while he's still in college.

[Saul Good]

ISU went for it on 4th down from their own 34 and got it.

[mnchiefsguy]

ISU went for it on 4th down from their own 34 and got it.

Mizzou's defense needs to take a stand and stop the ISU momentum. Can't let them get back in the game.

[Saul Good]

Big 3rd down.

[mnchiefsguy]

Nice stop. Make them punt. Here's hoping Franklin can get it together.

[Saul Good]

Nice stop. Bad punt.

[Saul Good]

Back to the running game.

[mnchiefsguy]

Josey for 12 yards. Pound the rock, eat some time, and get a score Mizzou!

[Saul Good]

Let's get a score and eat some clock to end the half.

[mnchiefsguy]

WTF? Mizzou seems to really what to let ISU back into this game. Defense needs to come up big again before halftime. Turnovers are killing Mizzou right now.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Team is comically undisciplined. Pinkel has apparently not just been absent on game day, but nearly every other day as well.

[Saul Good]

This is a fucking clown show.

[Saul Good]

Nice stand by the defense. Let's not turn it over. At least give Ressel a chance to miss a FG.

[mnchiefsguy]

3 turnovers, only 7 points allowed on the INT return in the second qtr. Defense has stepped up.

[mnchiefsguy]

Franklin to Washington for 41 yards. Mizzou has a shot to score before the half.

[baitism]

Franklin to Washington for 41 yards. Mizzou has a shot to score before the half.

Assuming they don't have to kick a field goal or anything.

[Saul Good]

Run another play. Don't give Ressel a chance to shit his pants again.

[Saul Good]

Assuming they don't have to kick a field goal or anything.

We're at the 4, so we're almost in range.

[Bowser]

We're at the 4, so we're almost in range.

Heh.

[Saul Good]

FG. 31-10 at the half. Feels like we're losing.

[baitism]

So 7 seconds left and a TO and they don't go for the end zone? Pinkel has a split personality and one of them is a retard...

['Hamas' Jenkins]

So 7 seconds left and a TO and they don't go for the end zone? Pinkel has a split personality and one of them is a retard...

Pinkel's a little bit of a contradiction, because he runs a progressive offense, but he's deeply Schottenheimerean in his game management. His conservatism has cost us many, many games over the years.

[Saul Good]

Just got word that there is no Big XII logo on the field.

[Saul Good]

Now, I'm trying to confirm that there used to be a Big XII logo.

[KcMizzou]

Holy crap. Hamilton just damn near decapitated ISU's QB.

[Saul Good]

Someone said that it used to be on the grass banks in front of the stands. The response to that comment:

"It was. Looks like someone took out a weed whacker and cut it down to the dirt to get rid of the logo."

[Saul Good]

DT Ressono out for the game with a knee injury.

[Saul Good]

Lots of NFL scouts at the game. DGB is there, too.

[Saul Good]

Nice stop.

[KcMizzou]

Damn Josey is good.

[Saul Good]

Big run for Josey +15 for the penalty.

[KcMizzou]

TD Tigers

Franklin to Egnew

[Saul Good]

TD Tigers

Franklin to Egnew

I think it might have been Moe.

[KcMizzou]

I think it might have been Moe. It was.... Mike Kelly said Egnew at first and that stuck in my head.

I'm watching that Mizzou all access stream.

[KcMizzou]

I honestly expected ISU to play us a lot tougher than this.

[Saul Good]

It was.... Mike Kelly said Egnew at first and that stuck in my head.

I'm watching that Mizzou all access stream.

link?

[mnchiefsguy]

Good to see Mizzou start the second half strong.

[KcMizzou]

link?It's 10 bucks to sign up.

http://www.mutigers.com/allaccess/

[mnchiefsguy]

Defense stops ISU again. Other than the turnovers in first half, Mizzou has sounded good today. Glad to see them getting back on track.

[KChiefs1]

At the game...No Big XII signage anywhere! They have been taken off the field & end zones & around the stadium. Looks like a done deal.

[KcMizzou]

LMAO Egnew beast mode. Drug about 5 guys inside the 5.

[KcMizzou]

Well, that oughtta do it. 45-10 Mizzou

[mnchiefsguy]

Mizzou TD! Nice series by the offense!

[KcMizzou]

Has Mizzou punted?

Edit: nope.

[mnchiefsguy]

Hey KCMizzou, has Mizzou looked as good as they have sounded on the radio? Sometimes the radio guys make things sound better than they are.

[KcMizzou]

Hey KCMizzou, has Mizzou looked as good as they have sounded on the radio? Sometimes the radio guys make things sound better than they are.Over than those turnovers they've looked great.

[mnchiefsguy]

They will need to look great next week with Ok. State coming in.

[KcMizzou]

52-10

[Frazod]

Goddamn Ressel missed another FG. :shake:

[mnchiefsguy]

Looks like Mizzou will cover the spread.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Rhoads is supposed to be an outstanding coach?

[mnchiefsguy]

Mizzou letting up a bit, that was a quick score by ISU.

[Saul Good]

Mizzou has 570 yards of offense through 3 quarters.

[Saul Good]

Mizzou has 299 yards rushing and 289 yards passing. We had 302 rushing but just took a loss.

[Spott]

I honestly expected ISU to play us a lot tougher than this.

You've been listening to Rustshack too much. :)

[rageeumr]

Looks like Mizzou made the right decision moving forward with Mauk instead of trying to stay in the Kiel hunt.

QB recruit Gunner Kiel re-evaluating IU

By Jared Shanker
RecruitingNation

ESPNU 150 quarterback Gunner Kiel, ranked as the nation's No. 20 player, is re-evaluating his commitment to his homestate Indiana Hoosiers, his father, Kip, said Friday morning.

"He talked to [Indiana] coach [Kevin] Wilson last night to tell him he's re-evaluating his commitment," Kip Kiel said.

Kip Kiel declined to go into detail about which schools Gunner, a senior at Columbus East High School in Indiana, will now take into consideration and visit, but Alabama was his other finalist.

He also has offers from Notre Dame, Oklahoma, USC, Florida and Michigan among many others before his original commitment.

"He's going to some games and other places and opening things back up," Kip Kiel said.

When asked what games and schools Gunner, a four-star recruit and No. 2 quarterback in the ESPNU 150, would check out, Kip Kiel said: "I don't want to get into that right now. I'm not even sure if he knows. It's a very difficult situation with the way things are going. He just wanted to let coach Wilson know and go from there."

Indiana has struggled this season, going 1-6 with losses to Ball State and North Texas. Their lone win came against Football Championship Subdivision opponent South Carolina State.

The Hoosiers are 99th in scoring this year among FBS teams with an average of 21 points per game.

The quarterback situation, which Gunner's brother Dusty is a part of, has been muddled since the start of the season. Hoosiers quarterbacks have a combined quarterback rating of 112.6, which also ranks 99th among FBS teams.

Kip said Gunner made the decision Thursday, but it's been something the family has talked about for a couple of weeks now.

"The last week or two especially, yeah," Kip said when asked if Indiana's struggles were a major factor. "I think there's a lot of things that had to do with. I don't want to get into specifics, but a lot of things are concerning."

Alabama is licking their chops over this.

I saw elsewhere that he will be in South Bend tomorrow for the ND-USC game.

[kstater]

What's MU fan opinion on getting back to .500 overall this week? Think it can happen?

[Rudy tossed tigger's salad]

A&M just snagged a Mizzou commit. Good time to show him that he's making the right decision.

[Bowser]

What's MU fan opinion on getting back to .500 overall this week? Think it can happen?

Who cares? Ask us when we're in the SEC.

Rewriting History: Record books under assault
By Mark Tennis & Doug Huff


Maty Mauk of Kenton (Ohio) is looking to pass his brother Ben's national record for most career passing yards.
Each weekend in high school football sees players across the country set school records and personal bests. Every so often special performances and career accomplishments lead to rewrites in league and state record books. But this coming weekend of football has the potential to be special, as four major national*milestones could be set.

A player from Missouri and a player committed to the University of Missouri could both be holding new national prep football records by Friday night.

On Thursday night at Hillcrest (Springfield, Mo.), senior wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham is expected to break the career pass receiving yardage record in the early going of his team’s home game against Republic (Mo.).

Then on Friday, it may take some doing, but it is possible that senior quarterback Maty Mauk of Kenton (Ohio), who committed to Missouri last summer, could surpass the career passing yardage record held by Ben Mauk, his older brother.

Thursday also could be special for those who follow national football records because Texas running back Johnathan Gray**in nearing the No. 2 all-time total on the national career scoring list*and is likely to tie or surpass the second-highest career*total for touchdowns scored by a non-QB. Meanwhile,*a Louisiana coach , J.T. Curtis,*could*become just the second high school coach to win as many as 500 games with a win on Thursday night (all-time coaching wins list).

Career Pass Receiving Yards: Dorial Green-Beckham

It’s been clear since the beginning of the season that the 6-foot-6, 220-pound superstar senior was going to surpass the national record of 5,867 receiving yards set in 1996 by Abram Booty of Evangel Christian (Shreveport, La.). Now, he's just 62 yards away from setting the record.

In the first game of the season, Green-Beckham had 18 catches for 284 yards and three touchdowns. He later had a game of 13 catches for 354 yards and three scores. After last week’s 56-6 win against Marshfield (Marshfield, Mo.), his total increased to 5,806. Given his penchant for big plays, it will probably take just one or two more catches on passes from*quarterback Matt Futtrell and Booty’s record will fall.

Green-Beckham could also conceivably go past the 6,000-yard mark this week. If he doesn’t, since his 8-1 team is going to be in the state playoffs, he could*add to his record total*in the coming weeks.

According to ESPNU, Green-Beckham, the No. 3 player in the ESPNU 150, has not announced a list of five final colleges he’s considering, but the University of Missouri is believed to be in the running.

Missouri already has a commitment from Mauk to be its future signal-caller, so*there is the possibility that one national record holder could one day be throwing passes to another national record holder.

Career Scoring: Johnathan Gray

The 2010 season winner of the ESPNHS Mr. Football USA*honor*needs 24 more points*to tie T.A. McLendon of Albemarle, N.C. for*the No. 2 position on the all-time national career scoring list.

The 5-foot-11, 195-pound*senior plays next for his Aledo (Texas) team Thursday on ESPNU against Birdville (Texas). Gray already has broken numerous Texas state records, including those held for decades by Ken Hall of Sugar Land, Texas, who played in the 1950s. Just last week, Gray had the 43rd 100-yard game of his prep career to tie another state record. Recently, the stud tailback, whose father*James was one of Texas Tech's most decorated running backs from 1986-89,*was recognized as an Under Armour All-American.

After he passes McLendon, it seems unlikely that Gray can top the national record totals of 204 touchdowns and 1,246 points set in 2003 by Mike Hart of Onondaga (Nedrow, N.Y.). But if Gray’s team goes on another deep playoff run –- definitely possible since Aledo (6-2) is a two-time defending state champion –- then his final career totals could soar toward the record. In last year’s Class 4A Division II state final, Gray scored eight touchdowns.

Career Passing Yards: Maty Mauk

It’s understandable if Maty Mauk and his father, Kenton coach Mike Mauk, have little interest in national records this week. Their 9-0 Wildcats must first focus on netting a pivotal road win Friday night against a 9-0 Wapakoneta (Ohio) team.

Still, if Maty throws for 443 yards in the game, he’ll break the national career record of 17,364 passing yards set in 2002 by his older brother Ben, who went on to play quarterback at the University of Cincinnati. Mauk has thrown for 443 yards or more in three games so far this season, with a high of 497 on two separate occasions. He enters this week’s game with 3,403 yards and 43 touchdowns for the season.

Players like Mauk on such successful teams often have to leave blowout games early, which can limit record-breaking attempts. Since this week’s game presents a formidable foe, he figures to play longer and therefore may post higher numbers.

Earlier this season, Mauk already topped the national career touchdown pass record of 185 set in 2002 by former University of Florida quarterback Chris Leak when he played at Independence (Charlotte, N.C.). With six more scoring tosses this season, Mauk will extend his record number of touchdowns to an even 200.

Coaching Wins: J.T. Curtis and the 500 club

J.T. Curtis has come a long way in the coaching fraternity since 1969, his first season at the helm of John Curtis Christian School in River Ridge, La.

The Patriots went 0-10 that first season of what would become the second-winningest coaching career in high school football history. Curtis hasn't had a losing season in the 41 years since that winless fall of '69, and on Thursday night he could reach the 500-victory career milestone as John Curtis (7-0) plays Clark (New Orleans, La.) at Joe Yenni Stadium in Metairie, La.

If successful on Thursday, Curtis will join John McKissick of Summerville (Summerville, S.C.) as the only coaches at any level -- high school, college or professional -- with 500 victories. McKissick, 85, has amassed a record 592 victories since 1952.

Curtis, with a record of 499-54-6 at the school founded in 1962 by his father, the Rev. John Curtis Sr., has guided the Patriots to 23 state championships in 30 trips to the finals and reached the state title game the past 16 seasons in three different classes. Curtis, who will be 65 on Dec. 6, also has coached the Patriots baseball team to six state crowns.

While Curtis goes for his 500th win Thursday night, another coach is still celebrating his 400th victory captured last Friday. Michigan's all-time winningest coach, Al Fracassa, guided Brother Rice (Birmingham, Mich.) to a 38-2 win over Chandler Park Academy (Harper Woods, Mich.) for No. 400 in his team’s regular-season finale. He became the 11th coach nationally to reach 400 wins.

[Trevo_410]

OMG dude, if we land DGB with Mauk... another Chase to a much bigger/stronger Maclin all over again. SEC East winners maybe?....

[Priest31kc]

What's MU fan opinion on getting back to .500 overall this week? Think it can happen?

Highly doubt it. I expect a similar score as last week. 45-21 A&M.....Im very worried we wont make a bowl game this year.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

It wouldn't be Maclin, it'd be like getting Calvin Johnson.

[CoMoChief]

OMG dude, if we land DGB with Mauk... another Chase to a much bigger/stronger Maclin all over again. SEC East winners maybe?....

Can they play defense too?

[ChiefsOne]

OMG dude, if we land DGB with Mauk... another Chase to a much bigger/stronger Maclin all over again. SEC East winners maybe?....

I don't think Mizzou is on Dorial's list, which is sad.

[ChiefsOne]

DGB breaks record...

http://www.news-leader.com/article/20111028/SPORTS0101/110280360/DGB-stands-alone?odyssey=tab|topnews|img|Sports

[eazyb81]

I don't think Mizzou is on Dorial's list, which is sad.

His Dad just announced his top five with Mizzou in it, and DGB was at Mizzou two weeks ago to watch the win over ISU.

[eazyb81]

It wouldn't be Maclin, it'd be like getting Calvin Johnson.

Yeah, Durron Neal would be more like Maclin.

[ChiefsOne]

His Dad just announced his top five with Mizzou in it, and DGB was at Mizzou two weeks ago to watch the win over ISU.

Where did he announce it? The only thing I've heard is that they were narrowing it down to 5, but wouldn't say anything until after his season was over to keep some of the distractions down.

I hope he goes to Mizzou, but he was at a kids house that I know last week and he named his interest and Mizzou wasn't mentioned. I don't know anything more than that, guess it call all change.

[Priest31kc]

The SEC Bowl is about to start...

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

lol at the MU Left guard.

[Trevo_410]

JOSEY NEEDS MORE CARRIES

[Saul Good]

Defense looking good so far.

[Trevo_410]

OMFG YES

[rageeumr]

Wow

[Saul Good]

Holy shit. Wish he could throw.

[dirk digler]

what a run by Franklin

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

Damn that was a tough run. I bet #10 for atm was the only one on the field that didn't see that block coming.

[Priest31kc]

Amazing run Franklin!!!! Good start.

[Sassy Squatch]

Franklin don't give a shit.

[Sure-Oz]

Rooting for Franklin, hope he gets better. Seems like a good kid, apologizing for his play on fb etc

[Saul Good]

Rooting for Franklin, hope he gets better. Seems like a good kid, apologizing for his play on fb etc

I don't give a shit about apologies. Play better. Throw the ball like a football, not like a limp-wristed dart.

[Saul Good]

This is just too easy. Pitch and catch all the way down the field.

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

Looked like #33 didn't know where he was going.

[Sure-Oz]

I don't give a shit about apologies. Play better. Throw the ball like a football, not like a limp-wristed dart.

:LOL: I agree he needs to do alot better

[Saul Good]

Matt Cassel thinks Franklin doesn't make the defense worry about the downfield throw.

[Trevo_410]

OMFG YES

[mnchiefsguy]

MIZZOU TD!!!!!!!!!!!

[Saul Good]

Need to stop them here. Can't allow them to keep answering.

[Saul Good]

That would have been amazing.

[Saul Good]

I think Tannehill was studying for a test back in the pocket.

[Saul Good]

Good job identifying that screen. Both players just amazingly blow past the RB slipping out of the backfield to get pressure for the first time all game...and...oh shit it's a screen.

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

MU's defense not showing much in the last 2 drives. I see a lot of guys that are just stupid and are clueless above the neck.

[Saul Good]

Franklin made a nice throw there, but he is a disaster in the pocket. He just stands flat-footed when he has a pocket. He just has zero grip on the game.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

James Franklin is a damned good QB for a running back.

[Saul Good]

Way to not see the completely uncovered receiver because you locked onto a guy who was blanketed...aaaaaaaaaaaaand shank.

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

What a punt... this one might be over.

[Saul Good]

James Franklin is a damned good QB for a running back.

It's time to call this a lost season and get Berkstresser in there.

[Dr. Gigglepants]

Way to not see the completely uncovered receiver because you locked onto a guy who was blanketed...aaaaaaaaaaaaand shank.

I saw that too. Before the snap I just knew on 3rd and 11 he was going to go deep. I think he's scared to throw the intermediate throws, he didn't even look at that guy, it could have been a TD if he could have made 1 guy miss.

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

Damn MU's defense didn't even try that drive.

[Saul Good]

We could have Andrew Luck, and it wouldn't matter. This defense is fucking terrible. How can you have that much talent with so little to show for it?

[baitism]

Franklin is a good QB for a WR.

[baitism]

We could have Andrew Luck, and it wouldn't matter. This defense is ****ing terrible. How can you have that much talent with so little to show for it?

Because it is always vanilla....always.

[Saul Good]

I saw that too. Before the snap I just knew on 3rd and 11 he was going to go deep. I think he's scared to throw the intermediate throws, he didn't even look at that guy, it could have been a TD if he could have made 1 guy miss.

You've got to pull him. If nothing else, it would do him some good just to watch things for a while. He's not improving back there shitting himself.

[ImAWalkingCorpse]

Because it is always vanilla....always.

I didn't see any effort on that last drive.

[evenfall]

They need a real QB.

[Bowser]

I didn't see any effort on that last drive.

Or for the better part of the season....

[Old Dog]

Because it is always vanilla....always.

Sure, blame it on the white guy

[Saul Good]

Why do we keep downing the ball 1 yard deep in the endzone?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

It's time to call this a lost season and get Berkstresser in there.

Fine by me.

[Saul Good]

What is that flat-footed shit, Franklin?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Pinkel has a lot more Marty Schottenheimer in him than people recognize. Aside from the offensive system, his game management is extraordinarily conservative. That manifests itself in the defensive schemes as well, where we run 4-3 even against 4 and 5 wide.

I just hope people watching this season have learned to appreciate Blaine Gabbert and Aldon Smith.

[Saul Good]

It takes him forever to get rid of the ball because he doesn't put himself in a throwing position. It's a completely unathletic stance. There is literally not a single action in sports that involves standing flat-footed like that.

[Old Dog]

He's lucky he tried to run at the last second there. He could have gotten killed.

[evenfall]

No pocket presence...

[Saul Good]

I'm trying to figure out one thing this team does well, but I'm failing. Even when we stuff a run, we let the guy gain 3 on the tackle.

[Saul Good]

Even in the games we've won, ISU notwithstanding, the other teams' offenses have not broken rhythm. We don't make anyone uncomfortable. It's like the entire playbook is available, and the OC can just close his eyes and randomly pick a play. Everything works.

That generally happens when you run a base 4-3 on the first two downs regardless of the offensive set and situation.

[Saul Good]

Our corners are playing like they're afraid of getting beat on a fly pattern on 3rd and 5 from the 12.

[Saul Good]

Once again, everything works. He could have handed the ball off, and the RB would have scored.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Once again, everything works. He could have handed the ball off, and the RB would have scored.

You've seen the perfect storm from Pinkel. Rare QB talents that fell ass over teakettle into Columbia, and a beneficial conference schedule due to a divisional split.

He's not going to be able to build a team that can compete consistently with second tier programs, let alone elite ones.

Hopefully, as rumored, he retires in 2-3 years and the program is able to bring in someone who is a much better recruiter and a far, far better game day coach.

[Titty Meat]

Looks like the SEC got another Vanderbilt.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Looks like the SEC got another Vanderbilt.

Much closer to Ole Miss. Give us some credit.

[kstater]

Looks like the SEC got another Vanderbilt.

Vanderbilt is taking Arkansas to the woodshed currently. But that has more to do with Arkansas being over rated than anything else.

[Bowser]

Just being in the SEC will make them a better team.

Well, yeah.

[Titty Meat]

Much closer to Ole Miss. Give us some credit.

Does this mean Pioli will be drafting a Mizzou RB in the 2nd round next year? FUCK.

Pinkel has 2 strengths. He's kept Missouri recruits in-staate, and he's developed QBs. Right now, he isn't doing either.

Pinkel has done a lot for our program, but you're right. Look at the successful coaches right now in the SEC, Bama (Saban), LSU (Miles), FL (Meyer until this year), it's going to take a huge name like that if we're going to compete.

Pinkel and these coordinators are going to get ramshackled in the SEC. Hell, Vandy is beating AR right now.

[Old Dog]

Looks like the ball was clearly gone before his knee was down

If Henry Josey were draft eligible, it wouldn't be the worst pick you could make. The guy is an explosive player.

[Saul Good]

Way to shit the bed, Franklin. Perfect time to take a sack even though you could have easily thrown it away.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Pinkel has 2 strengths. He's kept Missouri recruits in-staate, and he's developed QBs. Right now, he isn't doing either.

I read the first half of your post and immediately thought of Durron Neal, Trey Miller, Ondre Pipkins, and soon, Dorial Green Beckham before I got to the second half.

Agreed.


Mike Pereira, their rules expert, doesn't know the rules ROFL

Josey looks like a Jamaal Charles clone to me.

[Bowser]

This is the first year since Brad Smith that Pinkel hasn't had a top tier level QB, and it shows with coaching on both sides of the ball. Before, we didn't need to do much crazy on D since the offense was always a threat to score. Seems like nobody has figured out that we're not a threat to score on any given play these days, in spite of the talent.

[Saul Good]

Franklin and Josey would make for a badass option combo.

[Saul Good]

Et tu, Moe?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

That's coming back. Thanks Hoch.

[Saul Good]

That's coming back. Thanks Hoch.

He had to do it, or it was a sack. Fucking go for it. I don't need to see another missed FG.

[Old Dog]

Seems to me that the FG would be the choice here to give you some momentum going in to halftime.

[Bowser]

I'm sure it's been beat to death, but how much of this is on Fisher's injury?

[KcMizzou]

I love how the "rules guru" spent 10 minutes telling us the play was not reviewable, only to be followed with "After further review...".

LMAO

[Saul Good]

Good? I was 100% sure he missed that based on the initial camera angle.

[Titty Meat]

Hey as long as he doesn't get clobbered by a defensive tackle moving in slow motion on a screen play he's an upgrade over McCluster.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

It makes some difference, but it's not like it's the LT getting beaten like a drum on every play.

Missing Barnes has hurt our line a ton, IMO, and this team seems lifeless and leaderless.

I really think that Blaine and Chase added things to this team that a lot of us don't realize. Blaine was tremendously respected and admired by his teammates.

This team doesn't have a Gabbert, Daniel, or Weatherspoon, and it shows.

[GoHuge]

I don't understand why Mizzou wants to go to the SEC, but it is their decision. I don't know if Mizzou football is just having a down year because they are really young (don't follow their program real close) or because they are playing without a NFL QB for the first time since the program got up over the last 5-6 years, but I think without 1st round draft picks all over the field to compensate for it Pinkel is finally being exposed as not being a good game day coach..........which people have said for years. Maybe it's just a tough year, but if it's Mizzou trending downward it is going to be really ugly in the SEC.

No breaking news here as i see about 10 of you guys have pretty much posted the same thing in the last 3 pages, and I'm sure it's talked about a lot amongst you guys. Mizzou would do themselves a huge favor by staying in the Big XII. This team has no chance in the SEC..........none.

That was great. I hate that asshole.

More money and more exposure leads to better facilities and better players. When Missouri loses players in recruiting battles, look where they are going. It's not to B1G schools. It's Big XII North schools.

I don't underestand why anyone would want to stay in the Big XII with Texas calling the shots. Do you?

And yeah, Mizzou is having a shitpile of a year. Too many small mistakes piled up = a big pile of crap.

Well, to be fair, we get our best in-state recruits poached by Oklahoma.

Neal should have been a solid MU commit. Trey Miller went to HS at fucking Rock Bridge. No *** recruit or higher should ever leave Columbia if they are offered by MU.

Pipkins is going to Michigan of all places, which is really damned embarrassing. Beckham probably ends up at OU or Arkansas (puke).

[Frazod]

And to think there was a point that I thought Mizzou would be my only hope for a winner this year. :shake:

Even when we do blitz, it's so predictable that I can see it. Tannehill is looking like Montana out there, carving us up.

We were putting it together there too. Have to have a stop, can't go down by more than 11, or else we'll have to put it on Franklin's arm, then I'm going to mow the yard.

I like the Big XII commercial during the Mizzou/aTm game that contains images of neither Mizzou nor aTm.

1) When did John ynch become a spokesperson for Hass Avocados?

2) Why is he pimping avocados?

[Saul Good]

This is going to be yet another game against a ranked team where we play just well enough to lose a close game and wind up playing the "if only" game.

[Sure-Oz]

of course franklin gets tripped up

[Bowser]

Hey Pinkel - put your guys in the I formation and use a fatass D-Tackle as the lead blocker. This isn't timeout worthy.

[kstater]

Very Marty call right there.

[Sure-Oz]

and of course mizzou fails

[Bowser]

Jesus fuck. Fuck this spread option horseshit.

[Jerm]

Fuck you Yost...stupid ass playcalling again fails us.

[Trevo_410]

that's the best play you got for 4th and three yost?

[Bowser]

Ass to mouth is awful at pass defense, so naturally we run it on a fourth down and get stuffed. Out of the spread, too. Horsecock.

Fuckin A people, come on!

[Saul Good]

It's hard for me to fathom that we have a QB for whom throwing the ball isn't even a consideration on 4th and 1. I don't know where the line is on what constitutes a QB being up to the task, but it has to be somewhere above that.

I'm glad he can run, but how much is that really worth?

[Saul Good]

Can't believe he held onto that.

[KcMizzou]

Damn... crazy game. Great job by the D .

More money and more exposure leads to better facilities and better players. When Missouri loses players in recruiting battles, look where they are going. It's not to B1G schools. It's Big XII North schools.Being a sub-par SEC team isn't going to lead to better players and better facilities and the difference in money with the Big XII sharing Tier 1&2 TV rights equally is not going to be a huge difference.......especially when it is going to be split 14 ways in the SEC. Mizzou recruits in Texas so well because these kids have the chance to go home and play a couple times a year. Over 1/3 of MU's roster is made up of Texas kids. What is appealing to a Texas recruit about playing one game a year in Texas and then the rest being against and at Auburn, Alabama, Florida, Arkansas, LSU etc? They are going to have to revamp a large portion of their recruiting base and do it with the luster of the last 5 years worn off as bad as they are playing now,

I don't underestand why anyone would want to stay in the Big XII with Texas calling the shots. Do you?A month ago I would have wholeheartedly agreed with you. Now with Tier 1 & 2 TV money equally shared and having TCU and WV now in......add another school (Louisville) and the Big XII is back to 12 schools if Mizzou stays with separate divisions and championship game. Geographic footprint has greatly expanded (more TV money), money shared equally now, and Mizzou is in a conference they have a chance to compete in (well not this year). In the SEC they won't even compete for a division title not to mention a conference title. Hell they've never won the Big XII with their best teams. If this year isn't just a bump in the road Mizzou is going to have several tough years ahead of them. They have to revamp a big portion of their recruiting base and do it while they just aren't a very good team and they'll be even worse when they begin the SEC play. Not to mention they lose their over 100 year rivalry with KU which is insanely important to both fan bases.......especially now being played at Arrowhead. Now that's just gone.

I don't have an interest in it either way. Just objectively looking at it from all angles for Mizzou. I hope they do well with whatever decision they make. I have no animosity towards MU and making this decision. I just think it's a stupid decision and those pushing and clamoring for it will be regretting it in a matter of a couple years. JMO

JOSEY!

[Saul Good]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[Saul Good]

Josey is Jamaal Charles. I'm sure of it.

[Dr. Gigglepants]

If we hold on here, who is having the more disappointing season relative to preseason expectations, us or A&M?

[|Zach|]

Oh Josey you so crazy.

[Saul Good]

Great throw. Great catch.

[Saul Good]

So that's a horsecollar, but the tackle on Josey wasn't?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

If you're gonna call that, at least be consistent with the tackle on Josey.

[Saul Good]

Biggest play of the game.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

How the hell was this guy a receiver? He's got an absolute fucking cannon, he's accurate, and mobile.

[Old Dog]

If you're gonna call that, at least be consistent with the tackle on Josey.

Yep, both of them were pretty clear

[Saul Good]

Hey guys, um, he sprints out to his right on every third and long. Just throwin' that out there.

[Sure-Oz]

Great a fucking flag coming

Fucking bullshit we had the 1st down and Lucas dumbass holds

[Old Dog]

big call there, but it did look to be the correct one on the replay

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Fucking bullshit we had the 1st down and Lucas dumbass holds

If he doesn't hold him, Josey gets nailed trying to haul in that horrible pitch and it is 38-31 aTm.

Sucks, but it is what it is.

[Dr. Gigglepants]

Franklin almost lost the ball in the middle of the pitch too. Could have been much worse. Hope the D holds and take our chances in OT.

[Saul Good]

Why is a WR holding downfield on 4th and 1? Because it's Mizzou.

[baitism]

Way too much cushion.
