Elite Eight appearance by the Gators > whatever Mizzou did.


Oh christ here we go how predictable. Here I will respond to your shite assertion without even involving your shite team:

In 2002, Mizzou had a team that dicked around all year, played horrid defense and did not rebound, finished 6th in the Big 12, and barely made the Big Dance as one of the last 4 teams selected as a 12 seed. That regular season shitty 12 seed Mizzou team got hot and advanced to the Elite Eight.

Not a single Mizzou fan or any fan I know would take that team, Elite Eight and all, over last season's 30-5 Mizzou team. None. The Big Dance breeds insane upsets year in and year out. Last year it was Duke and Mizzou's turn within hours of each other. But the overall accomplishments of the teams were better than many an Elite Eight random run team. Florida was mediocre as frick the whole regular season long, and yeah I'd take my 30-5 team over that.

Both were over rated and made some coin if you picked against them.

Post season is where it counts. Just ask the St. Louis Cardinals. I doubt you'd trade some NL Central titles for the WS titles that were won when the Cardinals were the Wild Card.

I think MU's best team ever lost on a fluke in Richmond in 90. That team was loaded and that sleazy pos Jason Reese beat both Missouri teams on same type of play back to back.

I like how people look at a 6 game run as the whole season.

I think 90 or 91 was year that the Big 8 thought they would get all 8 teams in.

I will take our team that went to the final 8 over your team last year every time. So we are both happy with our seasons. Kudos.
