For the Love of God, FINALLY


Tony Temple is startled by fat official standing in his way. Fumbles, but still manages to score the touchdown against Gayhawks.

Mizzou finally wins the Border War against a terrible Kansas football team, 42-17.

I was going to write something here about the emotions that I felt watching my team beat down our hated rival for the first time in four years, but I was still angry over the Kock slapping we took against worst in Big XII Iowa State. It turns out my shunning of Mizzou was unfounded, as Big XII commish Kevin Weiberg and the league's supervisor of officials Walt Anderson have stated that the holding call that eliminated a potential game winning touchdown at the end of the Mizzou/Iowa Sate game was not a hold. The refs screwed up.

So... are you going to go ahead and notch that victory in our favor? Meh... not like it matters, it shouldn't have been that close against the stupid mascot having Cyclones anyway. A game against a team that terrible should not come down to the last play, AND we still had another play only eleven yards away from the goal line, and with this offense, being further away from the goal line to score should be a good thing.

Amazingly enough, though, with all of that Mizzou is 8-4 (should be 9-3, but I'm only bitching is all) and finished second place in an improved Big XII North. No word on which bowl game we'll be accepting the invite from, should be much better than the Independence Bowl.

With all of the shit that I give Pinkel, you have to give him this one thing... he's starting to make us look like a seriously better than mediocre program. Hell... SECOND BOWL GAME IN A ROW!!! zOMG!

Let's see if he can win one without Brad Smith having to take over.
