There is some good ball up north as well. The fans just dont care, the stadium was half full for their first ever victory vs PSU.

There was a very popular shirt at IU that said "We don't have football games, we have tailgates." The only thing that can begin to change that attitude is consistently being at least 8-4.

 

I went to all the football games (and stayed for the whole game!) when I was at IU, but I was definitely in the minority.

We rock the "Win or lose, we still booze" shirts.

Nope, that was just me being an idiot.

 

An extra O on a post is no big deal. if that was printed on many shirts that would be hilarious. And deadspin has put a lot of those types of shirts up, so it wouldnt surprise me if it happened

Boom, Mizzou!! Us South Carolina fans are bigtime fans of Mizzou's whoopin on UGA. Hope Franklin is ok.

 

 

Franklin will be out a few weeks, said Pinkel :(

 

Mauk is gonna be a talent, but not yet. Hilarious how again, the calls are "Mizzou hasn't beat anyone, Georgia was so injured!". I don't recall any sympathy last year when mizzou lost 9 offensive lineman and Franklin.

 

I'm gonna relish this victory, it's hard to beat any team on the road, I don't care if Georgia was injured. They were injured at skill positions, which they have a ton of. They weren't missing Murray. They weren't down lineman. Mizzou lost their best CB and QB in this game, and when only up 2, they...scored 2 touchdowns to ice the game.

 

It was a huge game for the program, but it sucks because had franklin stayed healthy, we are legit SEC contenders. Instead, I mean, we have to see how Mauk does. We have a great rushing attack but without that fantastic game management of him we are screwed.

 

THAT SAID, our defense continues to get better. Our defensive line has 2-3 NFL players on there now. Michael Sam, Kony Ealy and Markus Golden are a revelation. I don't think we can take SC and FLA with Mauk. But I'm thrilled for Coach Pinkel, who doubled down on his system and recruiting and brought his team back.

 

Franklin - get better, man. You had NFL possibility before this, please get back and show everyone up. IF we drop 2 to SC and FLA, but get back and beat out the back end of the schedule, possible BCS birth.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I think our chances of winning at Mizzou went up dramatically now, with Franklin out. Poor kid can't catch a break with the shoulder and labrum injuries. Honestly think, with a healthy Franklin, our chances of winning at Mizzou were no more than 30%. With Mauk, things change.

 

I do think that Mizzou will be bowling in Cap1 or Chik Fil A this year, though.

Problem is there is no backup.

 

The frosh, but it's just wishful thinking since they keep squeezing out wins.

 

This game's a blow out if they take care of the ball in the first half.

Didn't both teams have 3 turnovers in that half? I've only actually watched the second.

Yes. I don't care about PSU though. Ha.

 

3 lucky catches and we're going to OT
