I'd hate too if my team never beat Mizzou.

Not gonna lie, most Arkansas fans went into last season's game expecting to man-handle Mizzou after the two beatdowns we just put on two better teams on paper.


Yea and that was just dumb. I still think we would have won had Allen been healthy, but there was no good reason to think Missouri would be an easy game. I was afraid we'd overlook them, but we didn't and we still lost.

In reality, there are two stories.

1) When A&M and Missouri joined, a ton of people - fans and media- said neither program would do anything in the SEC. Well, that turned out to be wrong. Missouri has made it to the conference title games and as a result had diluted the value and competitiveness of the conference title games the past two seasons.

2) A&M showed they can be a thorn in the side of a team any given week, but they also showed their true colors early on in their SEC days and that isn't going to change.

Thus, in the end, teams can join the conference and win.

Yet Mizzou has more east titles the last 3 years than Georgia and Florida.

I thought Mizzou would make noise from the get go. It took them a year, but they are doing exactly what I thought they would.

All these "down year east teams" have still recruited better than Mizzu over the last forever. Respect earned.

Thats the thing that makes me laugh the most. Success breeds success. Mizzou is getting money now that its SEC. The room for growth for Mizzou's football program is exponential compared to it peers in the SEC.

This is my point. Talent wise, Mizzou is inferior to most of the East, yet....

How did they dilute the SECCG? Nebraska split it's last 8 games with Missouri, so I guess Nebraska also would have diluted the SECCG, although I doubt Nebraska would have been in it.

And there's a difference between winning and winning the SEC. Not sure what you mean by "winning", except that you obviously don't mean winning the SEC. I guess you could say Nebraska can win in the Big Ten, but it still hasn't won the Big Ten. Bielema made sure of that.

Missouri isn't competitive against an SEC West champ. Thus, the draw to the game diminishes as time passes.

You think people are going to be at the edge of their seats for another Alabama vs Missouri conference title game? lol..lol..lol..lol.

This isn't about how Mizzou does in the SECCG. It is about the fact that they are getting there over the other 6 teams in their division.

It's about both. There is a reason no one has named mizzou's top wins of the past 2 years, and we know they didn't come close in either title shot.
