What I'm saying is it's a little closer between these two teams than what you saw Saturday against Nebraska..OSU is a threat to anyone, not just Mizzou. I'll give you a little hint about OSU: They haven't opened up their playbook yet. Mainly because they haven't had to. I haven't decided which way I'm going to go with this game. The Over could be the better play..But Mizzou WILL have to bring their "A" game to outscore this team..The biggest difference between this OSU team and every other team that Mizzou has played so far this season is OSU has a very good running game to go with their passing. And this always gives a balanced team like OSU a fighting chance..The best offense that Mizzou faced this season was Illinois. And they scored 42 and just about took Mizzou down to the wire..OSU's offense is even better. And are very capable of controlling the clock and keeping Chase Daniel on the sidelines.
I agree OSU is a much better team than Nebraska. I wouldn't put too much stock in Missouri's game with Illinois. This defense is very frustrating to me. But, just like last year they start off slow in non conference games and then get much better once the conference starts. If Missouri doesn't turn the ball over and lose that battle they'll win by DD. Like I said above the LAST thing I'm worried about is Missouri overlooking ANYONE or bringing their A game. I'm telling you this team has a much different mindset than last years team. They are pissed off at the world. Having said all this I don't like laying 14 to OSU. If it was a line of 9 or less I would like it alot. By the way I went to school at OSU although it was a lifetime ago. LOL...What do you think of OU -6.5? My first instinct is to jump on it because I think it will go over 7.
football is a momentum sport where games can inexplicably get away from a team (see: oregon/michigan 2007 etc) but there was no excuse for nebraska to get rolled like that. thats on pelini. the huskers are not without talent. they sure as hell arent outclassed by freaking missouri. nebraska flat out got embarrassed and deservedly so.
Sad to say but you are an ignorant fool. Those players (thugs) were not the backbone of the Nebraska program. Was LP a standup guy? NO. However to make a statement like that saying that Nebraska didnt have good men playing for them is a joke. Dr. Osborne stressed being a good man over being a good football player and if you were to look at a roster from the mid to early 90's and looked at what those players were doing now you may be surprised at how many actually do 'good' things. To label an entire team because of 3 players is foolish.
