Watching bama last night, IF mizzou doesn't have an answer for Cooper, we won't have to worry about it anyways.

We are so far down in the polls right now, it's an extremely long shot. But if Mizzou can beat Bama who is number one right now, it should put us into the top 4. I say should. I think who ever moves into the 4 spot this week though gets the shaft in the end if we get past Bama. The way we get past Bama is equally important.

All this talk about Indiana. I still think if you beat the number one rated team in the country, it over shadows that Indiana loss. Arkansas shut out two top ten teams at the last of the season. LSU and Ole Miss. We beat the Hogs by a touchdown, should have been more. Arkansas is a very good team. We have a couple road game wins also. Albeit, they were not Bama or Auburn, but any road game in the SEC is tough. Look at Bama and Arkansas. Bama barely won that game. One point on the road against the Hogs.

If Mizzou beats Bama. They deserve a shot. Whether they are playing in a weak SEC East or not. You beat the number one team, you deserve a shot. Anything less would be robbery.

I hear ya, Jafo, but don't get excited. I just don't see it happening. The committee will look at total body of work, and that loss is bad. Really bad.

Besides, we need to focus on finding ways to handle cooper and the rest of that team. Biggest challenge we've faced all year, and will take a monumental effort, an iron will, intense focus and a measure of luck to pull that upset.
