There will be some leftover hate for sure

[Rams Fan]

I won't be able to go there and read those idiots for the next two weeks.

Skimming there after Anderson was hired, when Mizzou came to the SEC, they completely gave Mizzou 0 respect.

They're bitching about the fumble.

[TribalElder]

The announcer is still hating soooo hard ROFL

[Hamwallet]

Arkansas is going to be ranked for the next few years atleast of they keep this up. They have one hell of a defense.

They literally can't be worse than panty waiste Mizzou Fan. :shake:

[Pitt Gorilla]

And I doubt printz will be starting the title game.

[GoHuge]

Congrats Mizzou fans. Regardless of what anyone says you won the games you were supposed to.....Georgia lost to shitty teams too....they just happened to be in the SEC.

[Reaper16]

Bert should have gone to the backup QB on that last drive. Couldn't have been worse.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Didn't someone claim that Arky was much more physical than Mizzou? LMAO

[Pitt Gorilla]

Perpetually complaining about Pinkel/coaching (and wanting him fired). Whining about Mauk (when he's not absolutely perfect). Claiming the game is over before the 4th quarter. WTF is wrong with Mizzou Fan?

[NewChief]

We were in the first half. Horrible offensive play calling and execution in second half left our defense gassed. Arkansas has almost no depth yet.

Way to underplay how terrible Mauk has been.

[Al Bundy]

Good job, MU

[Mosbonian]

Mizzou Fans often can't see past their noses.

Don't be silly.....don't act like we didn't play poorly on several occasions this year. We barely escaped at South Carolina, we lost AT HOME to a pathetic Indiana team, had our heads handed to us by Georgia.....we didn't exactly blow out Kentucky or Vanderbilt two of the worst teams in the whole SEC.

I am happy we won the East but it wasn't by any means a dominant performance.

[Eleazar]

And I doubt printz will be starting the title game.

Do you feel like Mauk is ever going to take us to the promised land?

[Eleazar]

They were also ready to lynch their kicker last week. He won the game for them.

Sure, if you want to look at one game versus his career, you'd think Baggett was being hated unjustly.

[Pitt Gorilla]

I am happy we won the East but it wasn't by any means a dominant performance.Nobody said that we were dominant or that we should expect to be; this is big boy football and the teams we play are going to have good scholarship players. Mizzou, though, with their backs against the wall, continues to win. In the end, that's what matters.

I'll never understand the fan that claims a game is "over" in the first half.

[Eleazar]

Anyone who thinks a Missouri game is over in the first half, winning or losing, needs their head examined.

The fact they weren't down 21 to 0 going into the ocher room meant there was a chance. And I'm not talking a Lloyd Christmas mackin on Lauren Holly chance.

Even in big boy ball there are teams you dominate.

Don't get me wrong....I am happy we won back to back East banners. But save for that loss to Indiana we would be talking about Mizzou being a Top Ten team.

Hogs have to find a goddamned offense. We are always stalling in second half. Good game tigers. Now go get your asses kicked in SEC champ.

Thank you, NewPrisonBambi.

This was almost as satisfying as when we threw it in your ass in the Cotton Bowl. Keep those tears flowing, though.

[NewChief]

I mean. I hate to agree with Hogville, but we will go in dry in coming years. The beauty though is that even if we lose, Misery fan is miserable. Seriously. Can't imagine hating my team so much and being so negative m

[DeezNutz]

The two-point conversion was a thing of ****ing beauty.

At this point, people who bitch about Pinkel are ****ing stupid. Plain and simple. He's built a legitimate program at Mizzou, and he's one of the most underrated coaches in the country.

Very nearly, but for different reasons. Tennessee fans are more like Kansas fans: entitled & spoiled, rooting for a team that IS a historic power, yes, but not nearly as strong a power as they think.

Arkansas fans are just stupid. They're the rural Pentecostal church of college football fanbases: outrageous optimism mixed with a special kind of dumb.

I watched the end of this game sitting at the bar at Free State Brewery in Lawrence, Ks. So so so many disappointed and angry faces when Mizzou won. I was respectful. I didn't say anything to antagonize a single person, and only cheered when I could not contain myself, and even then it was just a clinched fist followed by a short, "yes.". Only one person was not a total asshole to me.

Someone had to win SEC East, Mizzou does it for 2nd year in a row (http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/writer/dennis-dodd/24847346/someone-had-to-win-sec-east-mizzou-does-it-for-2nd-year-in-a-row)

November 28, 2014 7:28 pm ET

Let's see, what was Missouri's best win this season?

It wouldn't be Indiana. The Tigers lost that one at home to a Hoosier squad that is winless in the Big Ten and lost to Bowling Green.

Certainly not Georgia. Six weeks ago the Bulldogs skunked Mizzou 34-0 – in Columbia.

The best win came late, as in late November, as in late Friday afternoon, as in the fourth quarter of the last game. It came over a last place team that had recently lost its last 17 conference games.

Naturally, they stormed the field Friday when the Tigers ploddingly, inexorably, finally overcame stubborn Arkansas 21-14.

That was enough for Missouri to clinch the SEC East for the second year in a row. Just enough. You did not want to be at the Georgia watch party that witnessed it from Athens. The Bulldogs' entire season was hanging on the result. It could have won the division in a tiebreaker sitting on the couch. Then that season fell off the cliff after a 15-0 fourth-quarter Missouri rally assured the result against a defense that hadn't given up a touchdown in it last 11 quarters.


Right now, little makes sense in the SEC. The league is both lauded for its excellence and derided for the East Division. But give credit for Mizzou (7-1 in the East) for being the best of "mediocre" in the East. No team in the entire league has a better combined conference record the last two seasons than Missouri.

Next Saturday, either Mississippi State or Alabama will play a team in Atlanta whose best win really is hard to find. The Tigers rallied in the fourth quarter to survive at South Carolina by a point. It gained 119 yards while scoring 42 points at Florida.

That same Florida team that smoked the Bulldogs made it possible for the Tigers in this improbable November by dropping 418 rushing yards on Georgia in the Cocktail Party. In this month alone, Missouri had to win at Texas A&M, at Tennessee and get by the hottest last-place team in the country.

Overall, the Tigers (10-2) won six in a row. It wasn't easy, pretty or logical. There's something to be said for the College Football Playoff selection committee chairman Jeff Long's weekly reminders about “body of work.” Mizzou had the best of it, in the East. Over the last two seasons, they're 14-2 in the Strength Everywhere Conference.

Alabama is second at 13-2, followed by Auburn at 11-4.

Yeah, I know they're 1-1 against Indiana in that span too but live with it. Super conferences have made it possible to win a league without even coming close to playing all your conference opponents.

Still, you would think there would be some sort of decent initiation period into the SEC. Missouri has been a part of the league for all of three years. Not for the Tigers who did it with offense last year, countering with defense this season. It was fitting that defensive end Markus Golden's recovery of Alex Collins' fumble with 2:13 left sealed it.

They did it with incredible fourth-quarter comebacks. In the last two weeks they have outscored Tennessee and Arkansas 28-8 in the final 15 minutes. In those games, quarterback Maty Mauk is 6 for 9 in the fourth for 195 yards and three touchdowns in final period.

Yeah, they rushed the field because their team it was unranked in the first CFP poll 32 days ago. It was ranked 24th in AP's preseason top 25.

It beat one ranked opponent along the way. Wait, South Carolina was once ranked 13th?

They rushed the field because initiation periods be damned. They rushed the field the field because Mizzou could actually be the end of this glorious SEC eight-year run.

Beat the No. 4 Bulldogs or the No. 1 Tide, and the SEC might be bumped out of the top four for the playoff.

That CFP selection committee wouldn't elevate the No. 17 Tigers to the top four, would they? Well, in that scenario the fourth-quarter Tigers from the mediocre East would be SEC champs.

How's that for a decent initiation period?

[Dr. Gigglepants]

I'm sorry, but who the hell molested Dodd while he was at Mizzou? My God, I am fairly realistic about this team, but I've enjoyed the damn ride at least.

Mizzou could actually be the end of this glorious SEC eight-year run

Oh no, sorry we ruined your precious little conference. What a god damn idiot.

Gary Danielson & Verne Lundquist are already spinning it that if Mizzou beats Bama that Mizzou has to be in the playoffs.

Never doubt the SEC spin machine. It's strong & powerful. Can't wait to hear ESPN chime in & the SECN will be pushing it hard too.

Just sit back & enjoy the ride.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Let’s not get it twisted. Missouri is a decent football team, but they aren’t nearly good enough to crow about the insignificance of their early season losses.

The schedule: Missouri played the easiest SEC schedule imaginable. Not only is Florida down so much they fired their coach, we got Georgia w/o their best player (not that it mattered), a South Carolina team that was pegged to win 11 games but won six, and we played the two worst teams in the West.

Missouri’s SEC opponents won the following number of conference games: 0,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,6. Not only did Missouri not beat an SEC team w/ a winning record in conference, outside of Georgia, they didn’t play an SEC team w/ a winning record in conference.

The losses: if you want to partially blame the Georgia game on an avalanche of turnover randomness that can ameliorate some of the sting, but they were still thoroughly dominated at home by a team w/o their best player who lost to Florida, South Carolina, and Georgia Tech. That wasn’t the 2001 Hurricanes.

Of course, no mention of the losses would be complete without the acknowledgement of the loss to a 4-8 Indiana team, a team that lost to a MAC team w/ its backup QB, and whose only other wins against FBS schools were North Texas and Purdue, teams that combined to win seven games. Mind you, that this was a home game, weather meant nothing, and there weren’t any wacky turnovers that could help explain the loss. They were legitimately dominated on both sides of the line by Indiana. I don’t know if you can find a worse loss by an SEC school since Muschamp lost to Georgia Southern.

The wins: The best win this year is a tossup between UCF and Texas A&M, which means that our signature win is either against a team that went 3-5 in the SEC West or a team that lost to 2-9 UConn and whose signature win is against BYU.

Yes, you can give Missouri credit for beating the teams in front of them, as a lot of other schools didn’t, but that resume looks far more like ’07 Kansas than ’07 LSU.

If you want to dish out credit, than give some to Drew Henson for realizing that the offense absolutely had to change after the first two conference games, when this team looked like a goddamned overflowing shit fire. Give some to Alex Grinch. Yes, him. The secondary looked markedly improved over last year, where Kenya Dennis and Braylon Webb have played those positions about as well as any Tiger has in the last ten years.

Now, why do I say Henson and not Pinkel? Pinkel gets credit by proxy for hiring Henson, but he is the first OC I’ve seen at Mizzou under Pinkel who actually makes halftime adjustments. If Gary couldn’t do it before, he certainly wasn’t going to learn it in year 12 with Yost. Congratulations on making the right hire and promotion.

Ultimately, this team has overachieved due to the defense exceeding expectations, Marcus Murphy, and a Downy soft schedule. I wish I could say that Missouri was some overlooked juggernaut/giant killer, but they aren’t. I hope they can beat Alabama next week, but they will likely lose by 20-30 points.

And if you want to give me shit for the OP, then pile on, because I’m certainly not going to fuck with a winning streak.

[WhawhaWhat]

So Alabama -14? -17?

['Hamas' Jenkins]

So Alabama -14? -17?

I'd bet it opens at -16.

[TribalElder]

Anyone know the status of hansborough?

Is he gonna be up to playing next weekend

[Mosbonian]

Hamas....I don't see MU as even an outside candidate for the playoff I guess I am not as pessimistic as you seem in your long rant.

For me this is a surprisingly pleasant finish to a season that started out shaky regardless of how weak our schedule was.

But for all the things you point out that are correct it would seem you would be even a little pleased they finished the way they have.

Maybe I am reading you wrong and your post is just a response to someone saying MU could be considered for the playoffs.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Hamas....I don't see MU as even an outside candidate for the playoff I guess I am not as pessimistic as you seem in your long rant.

For me this is a surprisingly pleasant finish to a season that started out shaky regardless of how weak our schedule was.

But for all the things you point out that are correct it would seem you would be even a little pleased they finished the way they have.

Maybe I am reading you wrong and your post is just a response to someone saying MU could be considered for the playoffs.

My post was a response to the litany of stupid posts in the immediate aftermath of the game, of which the following are but a small sample:


And I doubt printz will be starting the title game.

Well Hamas, looks like Pinkel won't be getting fired again this year...

They were also ready to lynch their kicker last week. He won the game for them.

Mizzou Fans often can't see past their noses.

Perpetually complaining about Pinkel/coaching (and wanting him fired). Whining about Mauk (when he's not absolutely perfect). Claiming the game is over before the 4th quarter. WTF is wrong with Mizzou Fan?

I mean. I hate to agree with Hogville, but we will go in dry in coming years. The beauty though is that even if we lose, Misery fan is miserable. Seriously. Can't imagine hating my team so much and being so negative m

So beyond your frustration with those posts, how do you view this season?

I'd like to see both yours and Duncan's take on this year...

This is the strangest year I've experienced as a Missouri football fan. Partly because my No. 1 girl (the Royals) made it to the World Series, and it didn't feel like college football season until November for me.

But mostly because the losses to Indiana and Georgia were so damning and confusing.

I think this is the best coaching job Pinkel and his staff have done. Rebounding from those losses like this is impressive and unexpected.

I've been disappointed in the offense - I expected Mauk to improve from last season - and blown away by how good the defense has become.

With Mauk, I heard early season rumors of too much partying and not enough focus on football (this included being told by a friend in CoMO he saw Mauk on the Friday before the Georgia game basically unable to walk, he was so drunk). Combine that type of "focus" with injuries, and you see the results against Indiana and Georgia.

There were so many little things that could have drastically changed the Indiana game... Markus Golden not pulling his hamstring (Loud and Harris improved a lot as the season wore on but were NOT ready for prime time at that point). Mauk not coming off a bender. Hunt and White not being hurt. Defending a screen pass on 3rd and forever. The team actually showing up and trying. Still the most confounding loss I've seen as a Tiger fan in recent memory.

I think winning the SEC East again is a massive accomplishment, considering where things were at midseason. Yes, the division is not the same as the SEC West, but it is quality compared to leagues like the Big 12 and B1G (and is still going to have two top 15 teams in the polls come later today). Any time you get to a championship game, it's a successful season.

It's been fun watching this defense, which I thnk is the best unit at Mizzou in my living memory. They aren't QUITE as good/deep at DE as last year (though, watching Ray and Golden dominate this year, you almost wonder if the wrong guy was starting at LE last year), but the rest of the D is better. Michael Scherer was a whipping boy of mine early in the year, as was Brothers, but they have improved by leaps and bounds since the season started. Donavin Newsome, too. The secondary has been BETTER than it was a year ago despite losing 3 starters. I am not shocked by that, as I expected replacing Matt White to be a major upgrade, but the play of Dennis, Gibson and Penton at CB has been better than I expected.

It's been a fun ride, overall, and I'm looking forward to taking it two more times.

Recruiting still disappoints - and probably always will under Pinkel - which leaves you wondering what the team looks like next year, when it again graduates all of its starting WRs, loses two studly DEs and a very good safety (Braylon Wilson).

The last time Nebraska fired a coach after the season, Missouri made some hay flipping guys in recruiting. It DOES look like the Tigers have a chance to flip Hale Hentges (who visited on Friday), and the Davis twins will now look around, depending on what happens in Nebraska.

Landing those three, in combination with inking Terry Beckner, would make this recruiting class look quite a bit different....

Seems like we are going to be really strong st running back again thigh right? If we can find a way to get blocks (a concern) and run the ball then we can get it into the hands of WRs next year...if Mauk isn't a complete fucking asshole and all and prepares the right way.

I expect Hansbrough and Witter to be a good tandem. Witter has looked quick and decisive as the year has gone on. Nice burst.

X-factors will be Morgan Steward and Trevon Walters. Steward had a lot of buzz until hurting his hip and gives Missouri a different look (5-11, 210, fastest guy on the team, reportedly). Walters is also a bigger back with the ability to catch the ball out of the backfield.

Chase Abbington is coming in from JUCO and will start at RB. Same seems true of HS recruit Marquise Doherty, for whom Mizzou leads.

This staff is really locked in on finding RBs. I don't worry about that position.

I worry more about filling the LT spot than anything else. Morse has been solid over there, and none of the other options inspire much confidence yet (Chappel at LT would be a disaster unless he improves a lot).

['Hamas' Jenkins]

So beyond your frustration with those posts, how do you view this season?

I'd like to see both yours and Duncan's take on this year...

The blind fan in me sees it as an unabashed success based solely upon the number of wins. Also, CFB is different than other sports, IMO, because tanking seasons is counterproductive based on what it does to recruiting.

However, Missouri won a ton of one score games this year against mediocre opposition, and that is not a sustainable pattern. Advanced metrics demonstrate, time and again, that teams that fare well in stats like percentage of fumbles recovered and one score games cannot duplicate that success, and it's because such entities are toss-ups. If you win four coin flips in a row you've had a great season, but that doesn't make this a great team.

I bet if you looked at the Pythagorean W/L of a team like Mizzou you'd probably see that they should be closer to 5-3 or 4-4 in league than 7-1, but most fans just look at the surface and assume all is well and/or sustainable.

I thought 8-4 would be a decent year, and they went 10-2, so on the surface they overachieved (almost solely due to the defense), but if you look at the team's schedule objectively you cannot make a compelling case that it's all that good. SCar is significantly worse than we thought, Florida underachieved, and Georgia was up and down. aTm was also a comparative disappointment to what was expected of them.

Am I concerned about 2015? Yeah. Am I more concerned about 2015 than I was three months ago? Certainly. Loud and Harris haven't flashed the way Ray and Golden did last year, so I doubt the D can bring the same kind of pressure, and I see us bereft of talent on the outside. Finally, I just cannot trust Mauk: he has poor judgment both personally and on the field.


However, this team still has an opportunity to win a conference title for the first time since the Nixon administration, so in spite of all that, or what happens on Saturday, the season was a success.

Sometimes, your most successful teams are not your best ones either. The 2004 and 2005 Cardinals were both the best teams in baseball and won a combined 0 World Series games while the 2006 team was maybe the 10th best team and won the whole thing.

[Jerm]

Would love for Lock to have an awesome spring and summer and unseat Mauk but knowing Pinkel, he'd still go with Mauk even if that were the case.

The conference championships are kind of a joke now. So even if Mizzou wins the SEC title they won't make the playoff and play in some shit bowl like the Capital One Credit bowl or the Citrus bowl.

[duncan_idaho]

The conference championships are kind of a joke now. So even if Mizzou wins the SEC title they won't make the playoff and play in some shit bowl like the Capital One Credit bowl or the Citrus bowl.

I believe the SEC champion still can't fall below one of the top-tier (Sugar, Orange, Fiesta, Rose, Cotton, Peach) bowls. This year, with the Sugar and Rose hosting semi-final games, that would be the Orange, Fiesta, Cotton or Peach.

Same with the champion of the Big 12, B1G, PAC-12 and ACC. Those conferences did not lose their automatic bid to traditional bowls if their champion doesn't make the playoff.

[KChiefs1]

Anyone else think the weekly updates from the committee are stupid?

They could justify Mizzou getting in the top 4 by saying they are the SEC champs but with the updates they can't justify jumping Mizzou over 9 teams.

I've always thought it hurts them with the weekly updates.

[KChiefs1]

8 team solves everything though.

5 conference champs(SEC, ACC, B1G, PAC 12, Big 12).
3 At Large bids.

[suzzer99]

Ok but with some kind of caveat that the conference winner has to be ranked in the top 15 or so. Maybe top 12? Top 10 seems a little steep. Once FSU starts sucking again the ACC will go back to being an abortion. And the B1G has that potential every year.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

The Selection Committee is just as bad and illogical as the AP poll. Honestly, they're probably worse.The SC exists to create talking points and pseudoarguments. The only difference between them and an ESPN Power Poll is that they allow for four teams to enter a playoff.

I was thinking about this game last night. You know, my entire life, the best Mizzou has been able to do in championship games or tournaments has been to be "a participant." I'd like to see them actually WIN something just once. Just freakin' once. You think they'd be due with all the misfortune that's misfallen them over the years. But that's what Mizzou's DNA is. Their threshold is "Participant."

Please change that today....Pleeeeze?

Based on this season's expectations, as well as how flat and just outclassed we were in the GA game, I think an argument could be made that this would be our best win. Certainly in the last 40 years.

I don't think this is our most talented team (save maybe the defense) but they've seemed to play above expectations and knocking off the #1 team in the country in a championship game like this would be "banner worthy".

[Reerun_KC]

MU 35
Bama 24.

[Prison Bitch]

and knocking off the #1 team in the country in a championship game like this would be "banner worthy".

Uh, that's an understatement. Knocking off the best program in CFB history, in their own backyard, when they're #1 and the NC favorite, and a 14.5 fave, to win the SEC Title?

If that's not a banner on Faurot then nothing is.

The 03 Big 12 champs lost to DietOU and ...Marshall. And lost to UT on a prayer.

So, crazy things do happen.

They elected to receive

Getting the ball at the half usually works out best

Mizzou defense could set the tone with a big series to start the game

[kepp]

Touchbacks would defn help today.

Running the Denver offense

[Red Dawg]

Coaching staff at Bama is clearly miles ahead of the slubs at Mizzou. Pink is just plain and simple out of his league in the game.

Cake walk

Boom

That was quick ROFL

Damn

Mauk better step it up

[TrebMaxx]

That was too easy. Could be a long afternoon.

[Perineum Ripper]

Alabama is going to run and short quick pass the team to death

[OmahaChief]

Prepare for a 56-7 game. Shit start.

[TribalElder]

Prepare for a 56-7 game. Shit start.

Really think we put up 56 and hold them scoreless the rest of the day?


That drive was too easy

[BigMeatballDave]

How many holding calls did Alabama get away with on that drive?

[TribalElder]

How many holding calls did Alabama get away with on that drive?

One on the first play

I saw the jersey stretch and snap back as the wr ran by the block

[ghak99]

Ouch!

It's looking like a coaching staff cake walk for Alabama right from the start.

[OmahaChief]

That drive was too easy

There was no resistance at all on that drive. Need more talent.

[Saul Good]

Well...this could be a long day.

[ghak99]

How many holding calls did Alabama get away with on that drive?

A couple, but I really don't think it mattered. LMAO

[HonestChieffan]

How many holding calls did Alabama get away with on that drive?


Is it time to start bitching about officials already?

[kepp]

How many holding calls did Alabama get away with on that drive?

Don't know. I was too busy watching our secondary whiff

Bama ran a completely different offense that drive

We looked stunned

Time for mauk to go 3 and out

[BigMeatballDave]

Watch the play before the TD.

[suzzer99]

Nap time

[Perineum Ripper]

Great opening offensive drive

[TribalElder]

Participant

[Saul Good]

We came to play.

[Bob Dole]

Horrible start. It's like watching Denver at KC all over again.

[TribalElder]

Watch the TD again.

I don't have rewind but I don't doubt it

They should never have got that far down the field

Our defense will be out of gas in the 2nd quarter

[suzzer99]

Mizzou struggling mightily to complete passes for no gain

[petegz28]

Pa thet ic!

[petegz28]

And yes, Bama got away with a few holds but we still look like shit

[TribalElder]

By the time our offense calms down and finds its rhythm we will be down 28-0

[TribalElder]

Very first play should have been called back lol

[TribalElder]

Bama running auburns offense and getting the same result

[TribalElder]

Here we go

[TribalElder]

Lucky mother fucker

Slippery bastad
