Iowa State beating Baylor that is :p

MU will, or at least should, wipe the floor with OSU. I don't know why so many people think this will be a trap game for MU.

MU wins easily. Book it.

Its a trap game if MU can't stop their running game. They may try and change the pace of the game to fit their style. They lead the league in TOP because they run the ball so well.

If MU stops the run, this game will be decided no less than 20 pts IMO. If not it could become close.

Remember that embarrassing thread you made last week about how Mizzou wanted to be Nebraska? Ha - ha - ha.

LOL at you trying to talk intelligently about college football.

My argument was that MU wants to be known as a marquee (sp?) football program, which they aren't exactly there yet.......there not yet a TX, OU, FLA, MIA, LSU, and even NEB. The only thing embarassing about that thread were your bullshit posts.

you really gonna bring this up again?

I hope that MU is NOT MIA or NEB.

Not the past few yrs no, but traditionally those are Nationally prominent fball programs.

Screw tradition, go for one title then fall off the face of the earth!

MU has proven that TOP means very little to them. Score on a 6 minute drive and Missouri will match that score right away. And Missouri has proven they are not just a passing team. With Washington and Jackson in the backfield we can grind it out in the run game if we want to.

But I still think we can stop the run since so far that is the strength of this defense.

watching cbs and the halftime guys just said "sorry poor MU not enough "style points" to be NO.1" WTF?? if MU beat OSU handily then how do they at least not warrant consideration? alabama isnt even PLAYING this week and could jump MU in the coaches poll???

If there's anything Mizzou does (or should) have, it's "style points". Have they seen this offense?

That said... I'd be fine with #2. Just gotta keep winning.

that's why i was like WTF??? but hey if Mu wins next week there's no denying them that spot

I don't see OSU staying in this game unless Mizzou helps them out via turnovers. OSU will put up points but they can't stop Mizzou. Mizzou will have to stop themselves. Hopefully, Mizzou won't look ahead to next week and we will get another marquee match up.

Tonights game should be a lot of fun.

I can't wait!

Is everyone wearing their GOLD today?

tonight is the game where MU's pass d will either show up, or they will show that MU has no shot at the NC. IMO

That or MU won't have a 3 n out and will ****in score 50 pts and it won't matter anyway.

Oh yeeeeeaaaaaaaah.

Finally someone who can trade punches.

Maybe our defense isn't so bad afterall after seeing Nebraska put up 31 points @ Texas Tech with OT still likely ahead. 10 points given up by our first string defense is looking pretty damn good right about now.

I don't think Mizzou's D is bad at all. They just pale in comparison to the O.

Oh I don't either, I just think seeing Nebraska keep up with Texas Tech will make our defense look better in the eyes of those around the nation.

Considering guys like William Moore, Sean Weatherspoon, and Ziggy Hood all look to have a future in the NFL and we have quite a few other talented college defenders I think we have too much talent to not have a solid defense. With how fast we score and with us often playing soft zone coverage we are going to give up some yards but we seem to do fine keeping teams out of the endzone for the most part.

I hope I can see this game in Denver.

Do your job, ESPN.

BTW: GO MIZ

oh i still think they would win, it would just show whether or not they will be able to hang with the Texas', USC's, or other team who could potentially hang on offense. it's usually true that a great offense WILL have THAT game. you know the one where EVERYTHING on offense goes wrong. ,maybe Mu is the exception to the rule(there have been), but ANY chiefs fan should be able to understand the reason i'm cautiously optimistic about the pass d(look at the DV era)

Mizzou - Texas set for 7:00 pm next weekend. (finally official)

KU - OU at 2:30

Both on ABC

Prime time, baby... yet again.

http://www2.kusports.com/news/2008/o..._230/?breaking

I need all you top 5 teams to lose...

ROFL, but youre boys looked ok today

KSU at 5 on FSN

That score was good considering they were pretty blah for the most part. Either way this is far from over and I expect every team to drop atleast one.

A USC fan needs Mizzou to lose. Wow.

Who'd a thunk it?

:)

classicROFL that would be a great sig

Well yea cause if we finished tied I know who's gonna get the knod...

That's why I don't want to spend a ton of time worrying about when the other shoe will drop.

I'd much rather enjoy the ride and deal with that if/when it happens.

FYP

Yeah, so do we. :grr:

good outlook

Slobberin' Lou still talking about Chase Daniels.

Sufferin' succotash!

Hey I hope you guys beat Texas...I'd rather all the other teams lose and Missouri be 1 and SC be 2.

Hey, that works for me.

I need Florida to win tonight though, LSU winning would **** up my plan..I almost got a break with Nebraska earlier.

What is the "master plan" mecca?

For the teams ahead of SC to lose? I need the SEC ones to preferably lose 2.

aaahhhhh hell i thought you would have a thought out plan....

do you think the SEC is THAT much better than the Big 12?

I don't need to do that at this time..aslong as SC wins out they have good odds of finishing 1 or 2.

In the minds of voters yes and that can influence enough of a spot differential in the polls to matter.

Yep. Your loss came early. Win out and USC should be fine.

There's just no room for error now.

how so? their schedule doesnt look too good(difficulty), and if you are counting on others to lose... well that doesnt seem like too sure a bet.

agreed but the Big 12 may have something to say about that. they will beat up each other, but the SEC has done that for years

As the teams ahead of them lose they'll move...SC will be ahead of Oklahoma now...the 2 polls are heavily factored into the BCS rankings.

It's tough to go undefeated. Hardly ever see two undefeated teams. And if you've gotta have one loss... lose early.

i get that, whats worse an early loss to an unranked(probably never ranked) or a late loss to a high ranked team??? didnt hurt NEB too much one year IIRC mightve been before the bcs though, i think it was the first year???

Depends on the dynamics, but if there are several 1 loss teams at the end of the year, and you are undefeated, you don't want to lose.

Lou Holtz picks OK. State

Lou Holtz thinks Missouri is going to lose......isn't that nice?

USC has "the name"... it won't matter. It not fair, but it's a fact.

(Slobberin' Lou picks OSU in an upset.)

ok, i couldnt figure out how many times 2 teams have gone UD in the bcs era, anyone?

Well atleast that name is relevant over the last decade and it isn't a "name" like say Notre Dame.

thats where the "knob" comment was from earlier

A few years ago 3 teams did.....SC, Oklahoma and Auburn.

I'm not sure... and don't wanna look it up... but I'm pretty sure it's very rare.

tru dat

True enough.

and auburn was out

I've just learned to hate that old mother****er. Die Lou, die. :#

10 minutes, fellas!

Lou's pretty dumb, he'll pick SC to lose every week and ND to win every week...that rivalry still burns bitter to him.

Auburn is losing to Arkansas.....after what I've seen the last few weeks maybe LSU is crappy cause they struggled with Auburn who looks like they are total ass.

BTW: Screw Oklahoma.

I'm getting a very bad feeling. ESPN2 is showing funny car racing. The DirecTV guide says they are going to have the game on, but I'm having my doubts.

That Ashley Force chick is kinda hot.....I'll show her a hot rod...

Same here...

They'll switch over....

I always get the feeling the other guy just wants to reach across the table and backhand him.
