I will be from the stands (homecoming and all). Sorry for the confidence, but I’m a couple of drinks into a tailgate, and I see a Mizzou win.

42-30

Hey, I picked Tennessee to win today and I’m one of 3 that thinks Missouri will win.

A solid win. I would have preferred not to give up those last 14 points, but it was important to give the backups solid playing time. Hopefully they learned a few things.

“The U” up next! Scalp 'em 'Noles!

In other news, 3 of the Top 10 are already safe, but Texas Tech is losing in the 4th…

2 for 2 (like a bunch of others).

However, how it happened is quite exciting and unbelievable!
