That's because the media are a bunch of potzers. Missouri was ranked this year based on what they lost from last year's team. People figured, wrongly, that because Mizzou lost Daniel and Maclin and Coffman and their coordinators that there was no possible way they could be as good. And they probably won't be. But they could be the North winners with the team they have, especially if everyone walks in the door thinking the Tiggers are just going to roll over.
Missouri is a beatable team. Several teams proved that last year. Missouri is untouchable if we play like we did last year, though. We have to bring our best to the game, and if we do, we have a shot.
Very true. KU proved that. It's just I guess I get worried everytime we go to Columbia, although winning there and spoiling Gabbert's first start against us would be sweet Hell just beating Mizzou is satisfying enough really, it's time to get that bell back!
