No, it started 7 weeks ago.

Oh, I get it. The win against Vandy didn't count because Vandy, and the win in Athens didn't count because they had injuries.

That logic is casty as frick.

I have been saying, "this will be Missouri's first REAL test" since the game against Indiana. I said it when we played Vandy and again when we played Georgia. I will say it again.

The difference is, before the Indiana game it was a test to see if we could even have a winning season. Now it's a test to see if we can compete for the East.

Remote, people shouldn't say your win doesn't count because obviously that silly.

It is OK to recognize special circumstances in games.

Take our Miami game for instance, we win that game if not for 6 turnovers. That' not making excuses that recognizing what happened. The other side that Miami should say is that they created 6 turnovers. That's also true.

For MO vs UG: UG has a much better shot at winning that game without ALL their injuries. MO should say we beat UG and be proud. Other fans will still have doubt because MO is new, hasn't beaten a big team at full strength. It's pretty simple.

Maybe MO beats UG at full strength because maybe those players all fumbled or had a bad day or MO played even better against them. We'll never know.

I think you guys don't like being told you haven't beat anyone even though you have a win over UG. Maybe it's all about how it's presented.

I still have my doubts about MO. Is that a terrible thing?
