No, they are not #2 in the East because there are no longer two divisions in the SEC.
Not going to disagree with the selection. While Bahl may be the best pitcher talent-wise and Canadee will have a great career, the one thing Fouts had was her consistancy. Alabama was good this year, but far from great and far from an offensive loaded team like Bahl had with the Sooners. There were a lot of outstanding pitchers this year, but I really believe Fouts was the one pitcher that lifted her team to greater heights by herself.
You are only allow a certain number fo organized practices and the Spring game is usually the final one. To delay it would be to shut down organized practices for a week then restart for one game.
She needs to pump the breaks a bit. She says exactly what Beno commented on each of the two times Missouri beat them. She accused Mizzou of being too physical and not playing above board. However, when the shoe is on the other foot she has issues.
While I do not know for certain, the belief with many is Levis will not be playing in that game, which diminishes the spotlight considerably.
Curious, Missouri is slated to play memphis next season. Will the SEC put Mizzou vs. Memphis this season?
The author says Mizzou had a shaky season. Truth is we finished about where most of the pundits said we would finish. Two games should have been wins, but we failed to finish. Season was not a failure.
Embarrassing?!?!? Are you saying Georgia never has players enter the portal?
We are a year or two away from being really competitive. Vols sure have made a nice turnaround.
Heupel did not want the Mizzou job and would not have taken it if offered. Remember that once he left Mizzou he was not offered a power 5 OC job.
The reality is we (Missouri) lost because we could not get our offense untracked. Levis proved to be a legit NFL-caliber QB, maybe not a Rodgers or Brady, but a reliable quarterback to give a shot to. I now understand the snap\punt penalty. Don't like it, but it is according to the rules. The fumble reversed was the correct call. The only two questions I have for the officials was why only one flag on the sideline scuffle? and second, was the fourth down spot that showed the official walking from the sideline at an angle instead of lining up where the play ended. If he would have ran directly straight it would have been short and I believe replays would not overturn it. The bottom line is the refs did not cost us the win. Our failures cost us. We will do better. We have to.
Not criticizing your post, just saying it is these types of games that these teams play. I am not saying they played bad, but they play defense in a way that makes the offense struggles. I'm a Mizzou fan, but when I see Kentucky I see a team that likes to get physical, use the run to control things and the pass at opportune times. They do not make mistakes and take advantage of their opponent's mistakes. I see a lot in common with both teams.
Good article and accurate. The issue is some Mizzou fans feel we should be on the same level as the nation's elite. Sadly, we are on a level more suited to the mid tier of Power 5 Conference teams. When looking at the preseason predicting from those that follow the teams and conference closely, nearly all had the Tigers at 5-7 and 4-8. Looks like they are correct. many of them also feel we are a year away from turning around that record. I agree with them.
He did beat out Bridgewater, but the final decision was to go with Bridgewater because he was the "safer" pick. Decisions like that in the NFL results in coaches getting fired.
I remember the last time Florida came to Columbia late in the season. The local department stores sold out of every winter coat they had. BTW, Mizzou won that game. Florida's players just didn't take to the cold field very well at all.
Mack Brown was the last good thing to come out of Texas. He was a class act. I will never forget he came all the way across the field to see henry Josie when he tore up his knee. Now Texas is nothing but primidone's.
As a Missouri fan we saw first hand the cancer that is Texas. The best part is the Longhorns have found the going much tougher the past few years and moving to the SEC will make it even harder for them to find relevance. I find most of their fans to be arrogant and extremely disrespectful. The only thing is wish for Oklahoma is they keep their dipwad band at home.
Daniel reminds me of a story Michael Jordan once said of a career backup - Joe Klein. He once said Klein only scored like 2.3 points a game, but his attitude, team first mentality and desire to compete made him a valuable member of the team. Daniel is so valuable as a mentor.
No one robbed their team of more money for doing absolutely nothing than one of your quarterbacks. Jamarcus Russell was the biggest flop in NFL history.
Not saying it is the wrong decision, but he will not get drafted. It is true that I never saw every game he played, but I do not recall much that stood out. He is a serviceable quarterback at best, not one to carry a team. Unfortunately the draft will be loaded with these types of quarterbacks and few teams will draft a backup. He was a great teammate and did good things and I wish him the best on his future endeavors.
Odom was a good defensive coach, but I wouldn't rate as great. It's hard to be a defensive coordinator in the Power 5 in today's game. I am curious why he would go to Illinois unless is was to make him co-headcoach.
OZARKIAN, so you're saying that the Arkansas job is better than the Missouri job? BTW, I think Mizzou has some outstanding coaches in place. Your post gives the impression that Arkansas is a "PRIMETIME" coaching job. I'd say it is no better than Missouri.
I always will respect LSU. Have not forgotten their full page ad welcoming us into the SEC. Classy move and appreciated. Hoping for all to stay safe during the hurricane in LA.
I like our defensive coordinator. When really looking at this game we could not matchup with their receiver and tight end, but we kept everyone else in check. We'll be fine.
