Mizzou @ Nebraska
 

Didn't see this posted but its slated for 8:00 on ESPN!!!

MU-Nebraska gets 8 p.m. start

The Tigers and Cornhuskers are going back under the lights.

Nebraska will play host to Missouri at 8 p.m. on Oct. 4 and ESPN will broadcast the game, according to the Big 12 Conference’s updated TV schedule.

Also on TV that day, Iowa State hosts Kansas at 11:30 a.m. (VERSUS); Baylor hosts Oklahoma at 11:30 a.m. (FSN); Kansas State hosts Texas Tech at 2:30 p.m. (ABC); and Colorado hosts Texas at 6:00 p.m. (FSN).

Nebraska will win.

Mizzou will win. :)

If Nebraska wins it's because Mizzou shit the bed.

What the hell is VERSUS?

It used to be Outdoor Life Network (OLN).

One more thing for Gary Bettman to be ashamed of...

Who the hell is Gary Bettman?

Hockey.

What the hell is hockey?

Har har.

It won't be as big a win as Mizzou fans think. Mizzou scored 41 points against Nebraska last year, and they might score 41 points again this year. The Huskers' defense has several holes. I don't envision Bo handing out blackshirts this year.

I still question if the Huskers' offense can run effectively against good teams. I hope this year's score is closer than 41-6. I don't know how much closer it will be.

I just hope Nebraska can beat Virginia Tech on Saturday. Their conference schedule looks brutal. The following two games are against Mizzou and Texas Tech.

V-Tech is horrible. Seriously, Nebraska should win that one in a blowout.

Nebraska is a better team than last year and Lincoln is always been a tough place to play.

If MU doesn't bring their A game......or if they play defense like they did last weekend.....they could lose. This by no means is a pushover game.

I wouldn't overestimate Nebraska's 3-0 start. The offense has shown inconsistency like last year. Chase Daniel should have another fun day.

Go MU! Nebraska should be a good game, but if Mizzou can get past Texas and OK at the big 12 championship theyll be in the NC!

best offense in football IMO

Heh. Directv ch. 608. They are calling it MAN (maximum adventure network) I wish they would make up their mind.

Ew, shit in your bed AND a loss to Nebraska.

That is a bad day at the office.

Agree. I do think Mizzou will win, but I'd be shocked if we won by anything close to 35 points like last year. Lincoln is a very tough place to play, which is why we haven't won there since 1978. Also, Nebraska will be ready for us and will not want to get embarrassed again.

My guess is a 38-28 Mizzou win.

608 on DirectTV I believe.

Well damn,my sis-in-law has a 50th birthday party that night that I'm playing DJ,add to that the party is in Kansas and I'll be the ONLY Mizzou fan there.

Note to self...keep your drunk ass mouth shut.

My ray of hope relates to how Pelini defensed Mizzou in 2003. But this year's Mizzou team is much more equipped offensively and defensively.

Erm, Mizzou hung 41 on us that year too.

I guess I was thinking about 2002 and 2004. Neither one was Pelini. So now I don't know what my ray of hope is.

All I got this year is my Huskers...it's all I got...don't take that away from me too...please...

Well, Coz did hold them to 3 pts in 2004. :shrug:

Pelini coached the defense that allowed MU to turn the tide. I was at that game and appreciated the gesture.

Missouri hasn't had a team like this years team and Nebraska has not been this bad very often. So yes we haven't won there since 1978 but over that timespan Missouri was a pretty bad team for the most part and Nebraska was a powerhouse. Big difference this year.

And if they play defense like they did last weekend? Last weekend was their best defensive showing so far this year. 3 fumbles by the offense and a kick return for a touchdown was what allowed Buffalo to stay in the game for a while. Of course you would actually have to have followed the game to know that instead of just looking at the score.

but, but - I can say the same thing about my Tigers.... Don't take THAT away from ME!!!111!!

I love night games...atmosphere just takes another hike up....should be a great game.

If mizzou wins this game they'll run the table.

We have to play Texas on the road. Texas is FAR TOUGHER than Nebraska.

If Missouri loses to Nebraska, we'll just know we're frauds right off the bat.

It'll be a big monkey off our back to be sure, but it definitely is not the most challenging game. That would be Texas.

Hell I still have the chunk of FG from that game.

It is usually on the coffee table at our house.

That was a magical night in Columbia. Best game I ever been at.

I would have to agree...because of the game and also reasons beyond the game.

But yea.

My early line for the game:

Missouri 45, Nebraska 24

Nebraska still lacks the pass rush up front and the speed in the back seven to really give a great spread o trouble. You have to be able to pressure the passer with four and drop seven to have consistent success against a spread team, and I don't think Nebraska has all of that.

Defensively, Missouri needs to do two things: 1) Get William Moore healthy (two weeks off should help that); 2) Dial back the blitzes in its Tampa 2.

I know DC Matt Eberflus has been working on a new scheme (designed around a hybrid safety/backer playing the nickel slot) based on the Tampa D, and I am hearing some underground rumblings he was experimenting with it a lot and the blitzing aspect of it in the nonconference schedule. I would be surprised if Missouri continues to blitz as much as it has so far this season.

One final thing: Because of the efficiency and quick-strike ability of Missouri's offense, the defense is facing more possessions and more total plays than almost every other team; total yards is a bad barometer in that situation. Missouri's yards-per-play through the non-con this year actually are much better than they were a season ago - and the scoring defense is improved.

Chase Daniel is on Jim Rome's show right now.

Please tell me that he's taller than Jim Rome. LMAO

I was at the game but anyways..... :rolleyes:

Couldn't tell, he wasn't on via satellite from Columbia. He definitely doesn't act as annoying as Rome.

Well, who does?

keitzman on 810, by far.....at least Rome has a grasp on reality...

I turned it on and they were just about done, but Rome seemed to be stumbling his way through it. Daniel gave some stats that made me think he was better prepared than Rome.

Rome: ...when you play in, uh on, uh... Lincoln. ...the sea of red, 65, 75, 85 thousand people in Lincoln.

:spock:

Never heard Keitzman. From what I've read here, I'm thinking that's a good thing.

count yourself lucky........the guy is the biggest ass on radio......

kietzman is schmoozy, plays alot of golf, reminds me of a guy that thought he was cool but isn't, then ok you have all that schmooze ohhhhh look at my yaght kind of voice and arragance, then he stirs up shit every radio station. I understand that is what gets the
ratings, but damn it can piss you off somedays. Then he has control of the button and so he can cut you off, but mostly he atleast knows what he has said over the years. He does atleast drum up some outrage for carl and for the some of the royals stuff.

I hear ya. I for one am glad that many Chiefs fans at least have the Tigers...but I ain't one of them. Woe is me. What ever shall I do??!!?? :deevee:

The Callahan years did not really happen......Much like Petrino with the Falcons.....It never happened......OK?

*shudder*...ok...ok...yeah...never happened...never happened...sunshine and rainbows...PBJ

...wow, Shiney...I feel much better! Thanks!! :thumb:

Hell, might as well say the last 10 years never happened. DEFENDING NATIONAL CHAMPIONS BABY!

This weekend's gonna suck.

No Mizzou game... and Chiefs vs. Broncos. :sulk:

Bring on Mizzou/Nebraska.

I'm starting Royal and Pittman in my fantasy league (if no one picks up Pittman before me in the waivers in the morning). My dad said to try not to cheer too loudly if they do good while we're at the game Sunday.

Don't be "that guy". :shake:

Hey man. I'm the only female in the league. I'm currently first in my division and third overall.

I'm starting Cutler, Marshall, and Scheffler. I'm just afraid our run defense is so bad that they will run all over us and they won't have to pass alot.

...traitors... :shake:




...heheheh...

Nebraska 34
Missouri 31


:D

FYP



:D

Heh.

I figured you'd have something to say. :p

I don't have a man to do my talking for me. :p

Peyton Manning has a freakin' bye so I had to pick up JT O'Sullivan from free agency. Luckily they're playing New Orleans.

I have Selvin Young and Ryan Grant starting, but I'm thinking about picking up Denver's goal line RB, Michael Pittman, too, so I can get a vast majority of the rushing yards given up by the Chiefs on Sunday.

RBBC ruins Fantasy Football. :cuss:



:evil:
