Why is no one giving Missouri any chance against Auburn?

I understand Auburn beat the almighty Fightin Updykes but Missouri is no pushover. If Mizzou wins, does a 1 loss Mizzou have the same case Auburn does of jumping tOSU suckeyes?
FWIW, I'm pulling for Auburn but just curious why no love for Mizz

There is some love for Mizzou. We are only favored a couple of points. This game could go either way.

Please go look at expert picks and come back and then re-think the question.

Well as 'expert' as espn and cbs can be.

How successful have the experts been this year for either team?

no idea, but i'm just confused by the misperception that no one is giving mizzu a chance.

Who is no one? I think that it is a very even matchup. Might come down to whose collar is the tighest as the clock winds down or last team with the ball. Should be a good one.

Expect a great game, because that's what's going to happen.

The majority of picks I saw yesterday - "expert picks" - were for Mizzou.

This game is practically a pick' em and the experts seem split. That makes perfect sense to me. There is no real favorite in this game.

The only reason AU is getting all the talk is because of the game last weekend and AU is closest to Ohio State. If TAMU was sitting at number one last week and Mizzou just knocked them off on a 109 yard touchdown to end the game... All the talk would be about Mizzou if they were sitting third.

The "noise" factor has nothing to do with the experts thinks of these teams or this game.

You beating Alabama is what gives you the edge in the polls over us and that is how it should be unless we beat you.

For 2 teams that are so different from each other, this game still seems to be such an even match up. Hopefully the game is as close as the teams are on paper and both come out injury free.

This motherfricker is. I think they win by a TD.

Not implying that Mizzou is a cupcake. These just look delicious.

I've been listening to sports radio in Atlanta all week and the picks seem fairly even. Missouri is getting some love. It won't be any kind of shock if they beat us.
