Just going off basic math and assuming all teams are evenly matched, the chances of Mizzou losing both games is 25%, and losing one of two is 50%.
Acting like predicting a Mizzou loss in one of the two remaining games or losing both isn't some crazy troll. On math alone, winning both is a 25% shot.
From a probability stand point, and not weighing in other variables, that would be correct, a 25% chance to win both, a 25% to lose both and a 50% chance to lose 1. However, CFB isn't a level playing field, so that math is nice on paper, but it doesn't reflect the reality of the situation and the other variables that impact all games.

I understand, when you add in the rant accepted beliefs that Mizzou is shite and the west is significantly better than anyone we've played it makes the chances of winning both even lower.
Like I said, predicting a Mizzou loss isn't some groundbreaking brilliant new troll. I'll even say it again, Mizzou fans overwhelmingly want to go to ATL and USC fans overwhelmingly want to go to the Sugar Bowl. I don't see where the big issues are popping up.
