All BS aside- my honest (not snarky response to ridiculous comments (imo)from Mizzou folks) assessment of Mizzou football:
When Mizzou came in, most thought (and I would include most Mizzou fans) that they wouldn't fare well in the SEC. That was proven false.
Mizzou has very good coaching, obviously they have incredible scouting and really develop talent well. They play above their weight on a consistent basis. Something UGA does not do.
Was their timing good with UF and UT being down- absolutely. Was their schedule favorable avoiding Bama, AU and LSU- sure.
But the bottom line is you have to win the East to win the SEC. No matter how favorable the schedule may be you simply can't win a division in the SEC if you suck. Mizzou had 3 "must win" games vs. pretty good teams and won them all. UGA didn't.
Mizzou has proven to be a solid, stable, above average program. But UF and UT will rival UGA in the talent dept soon. And the big guns from the West will cycle through. I honestly don't think Mizzou will compete if they themselves don't improve vs. elite programs. I think the last two years support that argument.
I really wish they would get their heads out of their arse and help us in basketball....
