Hope we are providing a distraction, paying for higher education degrees, hello Colonel, twas indeed bullish on Tigers predicting 9 wins for the season, University of Missouri opening up dorms on Friday at 11am allowing more convenience for students to return for Arkansas game, fans cannot whine if Friday is not a sell out, never will get respect from SEC or national perspective like a Tennessee or Georgia (at least for a few decades), competing and beating the 'big boys' (Oklahoma or Auburn), third straight week in which Mizzou has played hottest team in the SEC, concern for kicker Andrew Baggett missing a few last weekend, might see Tigers try on fourth down or two-point conversion, have to imagine that Las Vegas has lost money on Missouri this season, when team will release uniforms, thinking all black uniforms, "I'm out...", picking on other ugly uniforms and helmets like Maryland, subtle changes in traditional schools like Notre Dame.
