Originally posted by TheAlum You think Alabama would jump Missouri if Missouri wins the SEC? By beating the team that just beat Alabama? Why? Just because Alabama is Alabama? I’d like to say it’s impossible but I suppose it could happen if the Missouri-Auburn game is especially ugly--i.e. both teams look terrible--and then the usual voter bias kicks in. But the game would have to be historically bad. Otherwise, if OSU loses, the SEC champion goes to Pasadena. |
Originally posted by JoeinEscazú Alabama is currently ahead of Mizzou in the BCS rankings. That’s all that matters when it comes to who gets into the NCG. So, Mizzou needs to jump Alabama, which I think you will if you beat Auburn. That all changes next season with the +1 playoff system. |
Right. No need to get upset. |
I’m glad everyone’s talking about Auburn, OSU and the BCS instead of Missouri. Hopefully Auburn’s players are lingering in the glow of beating Alabama while thinking about Ohio State and Florida State. We know what Mizzou’s players are thinking about this week. |
The things that I’ll always identify with Missouri: |
West Virginia and Missouri had a home and home in the 90’s, I think. I remember it, just not the exact years. Also played them in a wild bowl game back in, I don’t really know, but I’ll go with 1998? Marc Bulger was QB for WVU. Sounds about right, give or take. We split the home and home and Mizzou won the bowl game by 7, I think. Something like 42-35. Maybe only three points. |
Ironically, WVU vs Mizzou basketball tonight. 7:00 PM EST ESPN2. |
Originally posted by TheAlum The things I’ll always identify with Iowa: Corn. Two cool chicks I used to know at different times in my life. But they also remind me of corn. Steve Alford, because he was at SMS for a while and I interviewed once and he was a dick. I was trying to ask him questions and instead he literally gave me an autographed picture of himself. But he’s really Indiana’s fault, not Iowa’s. Insight Bowl was a good game even though we lost. That game is the only explanation for Blaine Gabbert’s existence in the NFL -- he threw for 434 yards and was uncannily accurate that day -- which still confuses Missouri fans. Corn. |
Steve Alford IS a dick. You win, sir. |
Originally posted by hopscotch Mizzou is a very unconvincing 7-0. Bunch of weak sisters, and some of the games were close. Double dose of Mizzou for the whole country on Saturday. CBS will show UCLA kicking our ass in basketball before the SEC Championship. You will all be sick of us, if you aren’t already. |
