Holy shite, this thread is still going strong! I love you magnificent sons-a-bitches round here. I actually don't give two farts if we're southern or don't "fit". We're here now boys. Deal with it! But yeah, our BBQ is top notch.

See...that's what I've been waiting to hear. Quit whining about "the SEC members don't accept us"...if you just quit trying so hard to make everyone think you belong, then you will.

If it is "the gateway to the West"...then wouldn't it also have to be "the gateway to the East" if you are coming the other direction?

Wasn't MO basically founded by a bunch of tranplanted KY folk. Scottish Preb-breed, no? About as Southern as NC, in that case. I say welcome.


I think they're more known for their early inhabitants that made life in Kansas hell on earth

Mizzou shouldn't be the tigers, should definitely be border ruffians. That'd REALLY stick it to Kansas

Someone put it best in another thread, but it went something like "because they have a history of fence-sitting. They wanted in the Big Ten but wound up in the SEC. They were a slave state who wouldn't commit to the confederacy, and a northern state the Union never trusted. They consider themselves southern, while the south largely considers them midwestern, and most of the state borders Oklahoma, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas."

You're not southern. Period. Y'all aren't even Eastern. A state that has a City known as the "Gateway to the West" baby be in the southeast. I'm sorry, you just don't belong. And no about of justifying your role during the Civil War can change that.

OK. But we're SEC, baby!

And Missouri was initially settled by the French, the oldest towns generally have French names - St. Louis, St. Charles, Cape Girardeau, Ste. Genevieve, etc. Then the early settlers were from Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama - primarily Scots-Irish. The "Little Dixie" area along the Missouri River was mostly settled by people from Kentucky Tennessee and Virginia.

Well, they call us "slavers" to this day. But that would be a big negative for recruiting. But the Raiders could work... with a mascot of a Confederate soldier on horseback with a pistol in each hand and more strapped to his legs and back...

Kidding. We're the Tigers, and that won't change.

Kansas is a bunch of New England transplant blowhards that had as much to do with inciting conflict as the bad asses from Mizzou. After only a month of this Civil War class in addition to what I know I went from disliking Kansas to despising those fairies and I respect Missouri and the shite it dealt with. So naturally I now apply that to football and have to deal with the fact those cowards won't play anymore. Where's my outlet?

I say Pinkel leads a party and sacks Lawrence again.
