Crowd chanting "overrated"

[JTrain]

I was at the game. The chant came almost exclusively from the student section and lasted all of about 10 seconds. Probably one of the worst five threads of the season.

You guys are being pretty defensive in this thread. Tigernuts sucks because he is a Mizzou fan, but he probably cannot help that due to inbreeding, meth addicition or intense hillbillifacation, so I would choose to be nice to him. He seems like a pretty decent guy and a fair-minded poster from what I have read.

he is just another troll. next week it will be a new team, new message board.

I understand the hate between MU and KU, but please refrain from personal attacks. I don't agree with Tigernuts, and I don't know whether he is trolling, is divided and hurt as a fan, or what. I do know it takes some balls to stick around and take your lumps like this. Let's keep it directed to the posts and not at the poster and keep the discussion rolling forward.

I have a question. Don't you think sometimes some kind of stinging chants are fun?

 

I love hockey and in the rink some of the chants make me laugh. They are clever....and sting a little. "Over-rated" isn't really that bad. Kind of a dig but don't you do that with your buddies anyways?

 

I don't have a problem with a little sting. You handed us our asses, fair and square. But "overrated" has, and always will be, a dumb and classless chant. You're actually running down your own team when you chant this.

 

You can't, on one hand, pound your chest about a win over a top 10 team and then turn around and chant "overrated".

I can promise you most Nebraska fans won't pound their chests about a win over a top 10 mizzou team... because (right or wrong) mizzou football is NOT taken seriously in this state

 

You (not you specifically) started a whole thread about it: http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/48057-monkey-is-finally-off-our-backs/

 

I realize this doesn't necessarily represent the entire fanbase, but I highly doubt you will just dismiss this win.

 

Build a bridge, get over it.

 

If i'm not mistaken, this is the umpteenth time you've pitched a proverbial b*tch about it, and used that same link as the basis for your arguement.

 

It's done, you've lost.

 

We're taking our Bell, and going home

We have the bell!

Missouri...this is why I hate that O you run. First and goal inside the 1 freaking yard line. No TD. And that will be your ball game folks.

Edited by Rawhide: thank you very much. j/k

 

Who first coined this phrase and continues to do so on a weekly basis? I will give you a hint, it is not Husker fans. TigerNuts, how do you think you would be treated on other Big12 message boards?

 

As far as how the game went...you got Pinkel'd!

[shpadoinklehusker]

You act cool in the gameday thread and pull this BS? You're better than this TigerNuts.

 

Had to get one little shot in

 

It's a stupid chant and it's stupid when ANYONE does it, not just NU.

 

I stand by my first post: http://www.huskerboa...post__p__686453

 

 

He's just trying to make himself out to be the victim, but his shallow attempt makes me laugh. Good try tigernuts

Cry More....

 

 

Apparently, it's ok to do this...

 

I think you should look in the mirror.

[jjamuss]

I was there, I didnt hear it. I did hear some feeble attempts at M I Z - Z O U. Maybe it was the student section, those pranksters.

[deedsker15]

I was in the thick of those chants, but I didn't participate.

 

It did make me smile on the inside and outside, though.

I remember when South Dakota State did the same thing...

 

SDSU=Mizzou

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's funny cuz it has a double meaning.

Indeed. We didn't have to throw an illegal block downfield to beat an SDSU though.

I have never gotten the overrated chant. Wouldn't you rather the team you are playing truly be that good and you are just better? Chanting overrated is saying - well since my team is beating you then you guys must suck because we could never hope to beat anyone that was actually good enough to be ranked where you are.

Here's another thread that has run its course. Thanks for participating, everyone.
