I found the schedule, so I figured that now is as good of a time as any to start a new thread. Coach Drink has done well turning around the mess that Odom left behind. Solid recruiting has our best commit class in years coming in this year. The schedule isn't bad. A bowl game should be a given. I would like to see 9 -10 wins this year, with one of the wins coming against Arkansas. I really don't like losing to Odom.
Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz called it the best recruiting class ever for the Tigers.
Sure enough, Mizzou's current class is ranked No. 11 by ESPN, No. 14 by 247 Sports and No. 17 by Rivals, the highest in program history [Reply]

I've got 90 minutes before I meet with friends later and am watching UT-UGA. Got my work out in already. [Reply]

No one cares here in Alabama and Kentucky's been either too irrelevant in football or too dominant in basketball to have a rival.
You completely missed what I was trying to tell you...I said nothing about being a rival. What I said was that the local sports talking heads act like Mizzou is Cousin Eddie from the vacation movies. It happened in Lexington, it happened in Columbia SC and you can hear it here in Jacksonville.
And I bet it is that way in Athens, Knoxville and Tuscaloosa when Mizzou is brought up in football conversations.
If you Don't think there is an Old Guard SEC clique you are a bit jaded. [Reply]

If every team in conference is 8-4 they are harmed substantially.

Each team in the playoff is an extra $6 million for the SEC. [Reply]

Lol! Fair enough. Enjoy your time with your friends. Congrats on the win. You’ve got our number. I guess this it how Columbia East and Arkansas feels about Mizzou. [Reply]
The ref that spotted that 1st down that was clearly at least a yard short should be investigated. He walked at a 45 degree angle to spot it and emphatically waved for a 1st down. That was just blatant cheating. [Reply]

There is an Old Guard SEC, especially in football.
But I'm saying Mizzou is too irrelevant for a majority of the states to care one way or another, partially due to success and partially due to location. The same meat heads say the same dumb shit over and over. I get it. Kentucky gets bashed too (deservedly so) because of their historic success or lack thereof. Win big consistently and it goes away. [Reply]
Agreed completely. But Kentucky-Mizzou has nothing to do with that. There wasn’t some SEC conspiracy. It was simply really bad officiating and terrible QB play. [Reply]

Already had my text conversation with my friend who is a Mizzou alum and talked some trash with my Dad who is a Kansas undergrad alum and Mizzou MBA alum.
And probably so.
Enjoy your weekend and please win in Knoxville next week. [Reply]

To add to this, no one is saying that Brady Cook isn't a massive fucking problem, it's that aside from Brady Cook being a QB that probably shouldn't start for Missouri State, Missouri still had that game won before yet another egregious screwjob from the officials.
It's gotten to the point where you expect the officiating to be as level as pro wrestling. [Reply]

Are you going to mention how Mizzou had less penalties called against them than Kentucky or does that not fit your slant? [Reply]

It’s by design though, nobody’s luck is this bad. You have to try to make your luck this bad and there’s a lot of different forces contributing to making it happen. [Reply]
