Yeah, I was wondering about that, too. Does anyone know if that's typical. I might have been inclined to make a smart remark about it after about 3 or 4 minutes. Heck, I thought Pinkel might be cold sober before that test ended!

All the same, given the injuries, the youth, and the Pinkel DWI, they should still beat KU and head to a winnable bowl game. 8-5 in a reloading year works for me, and they'll return a big dose of talent next year. Sure would be nice to know if Josey is going to be part of that. Whatever the SEC will be next year, I can't imagine it being more difficult than the Big XII schedule this season. They'd have to wind up with Arkansas, LSU, AND Alabama on the schedule for that to happen.
There was another game (kstate?) where a missed field goal played a roll too, and what game was it where they had that dumb roughing the kicker late that killed momentum and the other team marched down and scored that might have been k state as well.

James is growing. I'm still holding to my biased homeristic assessment and looking forward to some fun times with him under center for the next two years.

Yep, both of those were K-State. That one stings more for me, because with that win Mizzou is pretty much locked into 3rd in the conference. KSU continuing to irritate me by winning games that they get outgained by hundreds of yards in doesn't help either.

Slow start offensively. I was hoping they would completely smoke KU today just for a break from all the KC sports writers who openly hate Mizzou. Weather is pretty crappy so we're going to need to run the ball well.

Edit: nice offensive PI call on Moe

I wish he would've spread the bad decisions out over more games. Ugh.

The defense has been awesome today. Another touchdown would put this thing away.

There's your touchdown. Nice fake by Franklin, and then a perfect throw to Lucas.
