The 2012 Mizzou Football Thread

[Transmogrified Tiger]

The problem Mizzou will probably have to deal now with in the SEC is the overall depth of the teams in this new conference. From a starting lineup perspective they match up pretty much even with a lot of SEC teams but later in the games the other teams are able to keep their lineman fresh with substituting in fresh but still quality players is going to be the big problem.

I'm trying really hard not to be snarky, but there's very, very little correct with what you've said here. Mizzou is not inherently thinner than their new conference mates simply because they have been in the SEC.

I'm not too upset. I mean they were in it in spite of an OL cones and police caution tape

Berkstresser has looked wonky, but the rest of the team looks great so far.

I don't like the cascading effect of the gold on the helmets. It also looks like we have four different shades of gold total.

The defense is playing fantastic.

Pretty sure they're supposed to be tiger stripes, but I agree that they look dumb.

Holy crap, EJ Gaines came to play.

If Franklin plays (healthy), you have to think this would be a blowout by now.

Also, agreed about the helmet stripes. I've never been a fan of those dumb tapered stripes that start fat in the back and get skinny up front. I thought I'd warm up to the new uniforms once I saw them in action, but I like them less and less.

Supposedly you can't sign any recruits unless your uniforms are a complete [expletive] show.

TD Tigers. I feel dumb for switching my pick now, but oh well. Good sign to dominate a decent team without your QB.

[JL21]

Granted, a lot of this is Arizona St. shooting themselves in the foot, but this has been a very reassuring game after all the o-line concerns and Franklin not playing.

That Ross kid for ASU has some kind of mental block to catching the ball. He's dropped three or four just in this game.
