You pretty much out yourself as indulging in hyperbole by not giving this title to Detroit. Come now. STL may have its bad parts, but its Beverly Hills compared to D-Town.
Plus, between Columbia MO and Columbia SC, only one of those Columbias produced Hootie & the Blowfish. You guys continue to owe the entire world an eternal apology for that shite.

That's all well and good, but I hate to point out that the only point differential you should be concerned with when it comes to SCAR is +3.
As in: 27-24=3
"Doesn't matter if you get beat by 1 or 20 if the series is still 1-1."
That quote was uttered by Magic Johnson after game 2 of the 1991 NBA finals and its one of my favorite quotes. He said it after losing to the Bulls by 20 points or so in Game 2, which tied the series at 1-1 because his Lakers had eked out Game 1 by 3.
It's a very valid point, just as yours is. Just win. Hell we once saw Mizzou basketball go 14-0 in the Big Eight by winning multiple games by 2 or 3 points or in overtime.
However, the fact is when you are starting to compare a full series between teams or a full season's worth of results, margins of victory do tend to matter. They are good indicators. For instance, right after Magic Johnson uttered that quote, his Laker team proceeded to lose 3 straight to Chicago and lose that NBA Finals series by a margin of 4-1. Turned out, if one team is barely eking out a win when it wins and the other is crushing somebody when it wins, that tends to mean the latter is the stronger team and more likely to have a better season overall.
And I'd say similarly, when you have a differential of 109 to 12 in points for and against versus five different common league opponents, it starts to become just too much to ignore. Every team drops a game here and there they shouldn't, and a differential like 109 to 12 suggests Mizzou's loss to SC was the massive upset, moreso than was say SC's loss to Tenn. Time will tell.

Dude had it coming. That was justice. And I still think that should be a movie, have Brad Pitt put on some weight and play the lead. Chris Cooper as the local sheriff. Would be awesome.
St. Louis city is not pretty, you're correct. But the city is not part of the surrounding counties, where there are very pretty areas.
And Missouri has some beautiful country. The southeast part of the state, where I'm from, is very rural, some delta farmland and the foothills of the Ozarks. Jesse James home? That part of the state isn't so pretty, tbh.

Mizzou is the worst fan base period .... and their pseudo success is a mirage. Which makes their consistently full retard failures on this board all the more magnified.
Jr. has dodged raindrops all year and now you're down on your knees (doing what you do) hoping we lose.
In two weeks, you have a complete skull frick coming at hands of Clemson.
And if by chance we do stumble, Alabama will frick fracture your other eye along the lines of Auburn in 2010.
Then you'll play in a horseshite bowl as an exposed 4 loss fraud with your Top 25 ranking hanging by a thread.
Did I leave anything out? Didn't think so...

There is one thing I love more than fools branding an entire fan base by the actions of a few on the internet, and that is when people think they know a city just because they had a layover in that city. You have no idea what you're talking about.

One thing I won't dispute is that Scar fans are superior in the angry department.
You can literally feel the anger being emitted by all these USC posters.
