So, the Southern schools copied those damn yankees.

Not surprised.



There's a %50 chance Mizzou, came to adopt the Tiger as their mascot for the exact same reason as LSU, but I know %100 why LSU, did. It was from fighting those Damn Yankees, in the battle of the Shenandoah Valley.

The original Tigers defended CoMo from potential raids by Quantrill and his raiders.

Okay, back to the helmets. I give Mizzou an A for effort, but a C- on execution. I love going throwback but, unless they wore that cartoon on their helmets back in the day, it looks awkward with the rest of the uniform.

The block M they used earlier in the season was an outstanding look, imvho. They should stick with it.

I'm not a proponent of slavery and never have been. No man should be allowed to own another.

History is history, and slavery is not the topic of this thread. I'm extremely proud of where I'm from, as well as my ancestors. Warts and all!

Only thing about Mizzou that looks good today. They'll need a safe space after this game.
