Missouri is about to lose to Indiana

[utisdabomb12]

Wow, at home too. 

 

[utisdabomb12]

That's a pretty big upset. Indiana had lost 18 straight games to ranked teams. 

 

[Bear19]

Missouri = aggy

Perennial middle of the road big 12 team.

 

[Tejas fan]

I guess missou will drop a spot in polls and Indiana will be ranked about 12 or so

No kidding. They'll find a way to keep Mizzou in the top 25. But Indiana won't be ranked. The Big 10 sucks outside of MSU.

 

[HornEsch]

Yep they will get the typical SEC curve of 10 spots to keep them in the top 25.

Did anyone see where Jameis Winston showed up on the field in warm ups in full uniform, taking snaps and going through passing drills?

Jimbo had words with him, sent him back to the locker room. Winston comes back to the sideline in cargo pants, jersey. A video shows Jimbo and Winston going at it again after that.

Trouble on the reservation?

Winston knows he controls that relationship. After FSU's struggles tonight he knows Jimbo will have him back on the field next weekend. 

 

[Sirhornsalot]

If I were Jimbo, I'd sit him another game for that. What's he going to lose? Jamieson is gone after this season anyway.

How do you misunderstand a situation like that? You don't. It was insubordination.

BTW, unranked Washington State is playing like Elvis right now and hanging with Oregon into the 4th, down by 1 score. WSU is moving the ball at will so it will be a doozie of a finish, I'm sure.

Announcers are now busy building up Wash State and what a great team they are. 

DaBomb, where you located? Would love to buy you a beer sometime.

dude is the definition of pre-Madonna (old OB term).
Speaking of definitions, look up 'choke job' and Clemson should come up.

Gary Pinkel has been at Mizzou for 13 seasons. He is who he is.

He will have some great years when the consistent powers are down. In 2007, Nebraska and Colorado, powers of the Big 12 North, went 5-7 and 6-7 respectively. Pinkel took advantage. Last year, Gary Pinkel took advantage of a bad Florida team that went 4-8 and a Georgia team that imploded on itself. To be fair, the Tigers did have some good wins in those seasons (2007 over Kansas and 2013 against (at the time) #7 Georgia and Texas A&M) but when they face a superior opponent that season, they get blown out (Oklahoma in 2007 and Auburn in 2013).

When his teams aren't that good, they will have some WTF losses. Kansas in 2008, 4-8 Baylor in 2009 (The emergence of Nick Florence), Getting blown out by Navy in 2009, the list goes on. Those seasons, Mizzou usually go 6-6 or 8-4.

Mizzou fans are mostly behind Gary Pinkel because of what he has done for the program. But there are younger fans (like myself) who feel that Mizzou can do better than losses to Indiana while the older fans are just happy that the team doesn't suck all the time.

Now they are in the SEC where they all recruit well. Gary Pinkel does fine in recruiting, if he were playing in the Big 12. But everyone in the SEC recruits well. Now the next 3 games are at South Carolina, Georgia and at Florida. They might go 1-2 in that stretch but 0-3 is possible too.

I was adament that the SEC wasn't the place for Mizzou because I didn't feel it fit in culturally as well as it did in the Big 12 and potentially the Big 10. Mizzou wanted the Big 10 for the longest time but never got the call. I know after last season everyone said Mizzou made the right decision in going to the SEC and maybe so in terms of money but if they put together another losing season, that 2 losing seasons in their first 3 seasons in the SEC. You can't keep a stable fanbase on those types of results and the TV money won't last forever because cable bills will reach a tipping point that people just won't pay for it anymore. Less people watching cable, less advertisers want to pay, the less money the contracts will give out. I guess time will tell.

Good summary of the situation, Chris. Thanks for your thoughts.

I'll give you this. Mizzou reached the CCG much faster than anyone thought they could and did so before Aggy, who may never see that game and is seemingly content with middle of the division.

Mizzou stood their ground on some discipline issues that I thought were stand-up. And of course, Stoops came in because he lacks what Mizzou showed.

If Jimbo has any balls, he'd sit Jameis again.

But, he won't.  Pressure to win at FSU is too great.  I'm surprised the equipment staff even issued Winston a uniform.  There's a communication breakdown there that needs to be addressed.

Well being an Alum of Mizzou, I have a unique perspective that most on here might not have. I am not around Texas 24/7 so I have a good outsiders perspective but I also feel I have a decent outsiders perspective on Mizzou even if at times, my fandom of Mizzou blinds me to that reality.

It was likely unfair to suggest Mizzou would repeat last year's success. I compare Maty Mauk to Chase Daniel.

Chase Daniel had some bright flashes as a freshman in 2005, helping lead a comeback win against Iowa State when Brad Smith went down. In 2006, Daniel had some flashes of brilliance (the Kansas game) and some stinkers (Nebraska) but he was solid for the whole season averaging about 270 yards/gm. 2007 was his breakout year throwing for 308 yards/gm. Same for 2008.

Maty Mauk had some brilliant moments as a freshman and he is averaging around 245 yards per game this season. Next year or the season after that should be the year Maty Mauk breaks out and when that happens with Mizzou, they go on a roll.

With Mizzou (like most spread offense team), the quarterback is so crucial and experience matters. Mizzou will never have the defense necessary under Pinkel to win it all but they will win a lot of games with their offense. Honestly, that's what Mizzou fans want. To win football games. Championships would just be icing on the cake for the majority of the fanbase.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

If I were Pinkel, I'd open an office in Southlake and just take every QB Southlake has each year. They will graduate running the spread to perfection in most cases.

Daniel made Mizzou football fun. Loved his moxie when they faced OU each year.

The kid is a flat out rAtard... Had the world in his hands and tossed it away. 

 

[Bevostuntdouble]

Wow, at home too. 

 I would have been able to fully love seeing this had I not bet Mizzou to win. Nonetheless, love seeing SEC lose.
