TrueMizzou Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Well it looks like my Tigers pulled a victory out of a very ugly, stomach-churning game in San Antonio. Northwestern's obviously a better team than a lot of people gave them credit for being; they looked downright uppity out there. As far as Mizzou is concerned, well, we all know what that reality is... But nevertheless, a win is a win is a win, so I'll take it. Time for OSU, KU (I'll have to hold my nose when I root for those guys), and BIG RED to take care of business these next few games. I like how you match up against the Tigers. Clemson has suffered from mental weakness this season, and that's an area where you've shown a lot of growth. I know I've busted on Pelini in the past, but he deserves all the credit for making that happen. A couple drawn-out, grinding drives matched by some physical D (a la the Osborne era), may be all that's required to make them close up shop. Whatever happens, I'll be pulling for you guys to bring it home for the Big 12. Go Huskers!!! Quote Link to comment
SkullandBones Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I don't know that Northwestern was all that underrated, it just looked to me like MU was believing all the pre-game hype and expected NU to roll over for them, which the did not. Then again I could just be bitter because I took the tigers (NEVER again) and gave up the 14 points. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Congrats on the win, lets hope the rest of the Big 12 does as well. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
-EsRolvl- Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Not taking anything away from northwestern but mizzou was flat all game chase looked terrible he just wasn't on, good thing maclin and coffman were there to save the day... maclin will definitely be a first rounder... 2 bad mizzou didnt play like that against us o well Big 12 1-0 and after o-state beats oregon we'll be 2-0 Quote Link to comment
fro daddy Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 MU played like crap. Like others have said atleast Spoon and Maclin didnt forget they had a game last night. As frustraiting as that was, Mu won and that is the type of game they would lose 100 out of 100 tries not too many years ago. I never thought I would see the day when Mu could play like absolute dogs, not really even show up and still beat someone. And a ranked team at that. As ol' TT said on another post, another 10 win season. I am pleased, yet slightly dissapointed. Could have been a little better, not NC better, but 12 win better. And I am ready to see someone other than Daniel in the backfield. How can someones last 8 games be so drastically different from his first 32. The world may never know... Any way, heres to Weatherspoon confirming he is returning, Qb play that couldn't get any worse, big 12 victories in the bowl season, Ze Bop getting a new hobby and continued good sex in the big east.....

No way was Mizzou going to beat them by 12-14 pts. NW has a good team. Quote Link to comment

The departure of Mizzou's former QB WILL give me some more times for all my young hotties .... But ,oh, the memories: Quote Link to comment

Well, gotta put down our hopes of rival losses and pull for the conference I guess. Not Mizzou though. Quote Link to comment
