Indiana has a shot at Mizzou, said that all along. Yet after a full month into season will Mizzou know if it is any good?
Vandy can beat Mizzou again... It is all matter if opinion, which can be comtrary to insular Mizzou fans.

If Indiana has a shot at beating you, you know where you stand.

Let me get this straight. If we don't agree that Mizzou should be lining up a bunch of top 25 teams in the nonconference schedule, that makes us "hypersensitive"and "insular"?

Please.

It wasn't that drastic.
I could do the same thing - "Let me get this straight, you think the potentially 5-0 Mizzou is Super great! and about to get the best recruits because of it etc"

You could not, because no one said that Mizzou's scheduling was a ticket to greatness, but rather that scheduling in a way that you're suggesting they should to avoid your "vinegar" is unreasonable for a variety of reasons. Nuance is not a 4 letter word.

Reducing everything to a snarky soundbite does not work in general, but it's even worse when you're under-informed compared to those you're trying to snark.

All I can gather here is that Freed really hates Pinkel, and maybe knows some really cocky Mizzou fans. Which is odd because all the fans I know are almost excessively pessimistic.

It seems like every NCAA team is in a race to see who can produce the stupidest looking uniform.

That is paid for by the uni company. Big, big incentive!

Just to illustrate the point, look at this chicanery. SIX [expletive] HELMETS for Indiana, and one of them has the [expletive] state flag on it. Another has chrome stripes, which... when the [expletive] did chrome become a thing in college football? What fresh hell is this?

I thought Mizzou was wacky enough by adding a third helmet.

Also... Kansas apparently trailed Louisiana Tech going into the 4th quarter and needed a field goal as time expired to win. So, hahaha to that.
