,,.,

My kid was in school for both the 2013 and 2014 CC games and attended both. Too bad we lost ‘em, but I was grateful that he got to experience something I never came close to.

It wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if he took over in the red zone. And is still working special teams.


Yep. Frustrating that now with a nine game SEC schedule, eight wins will ALWAYS be our ceiling. This year it’s seven of course (crossing my fingers that we can eke out a win v. OU).

No one likes the 24 team CFP, but frick, it it’s the ONLY way Mizzou would ever sniff a playoff. Never happening at 12.

Dennis Gates too high. Mizzou still trash at basketball


Couldn’t agree with you more. Dude simply cannot coach, and I’m hearing stories about him being a pretty arrogant MF’r with NOTHING to back it up other than some good recruiting classes which simply displays his inability to coach that talent!

This clown has to go. No other way to move forward. He would lose with a roster of NBA all stars!
That is rich coming from a yankee school and state.

We gave the world Sophie Cunningham. That’s a big enough accomplishment as far as I’m concerned!

Good graphic! Thanks for posting!

Just an observation, even with some significant movement, none of the AP Top 12 fell below 12.

The Slive thing was a tangent.


Yeah, I failed to consider that it was actually Texas, not Slive responsible for launching the very lucrative SEC Network. :dope:

I've done all I can do here. Goodnight.

SEC on CBS was the biggest ratings programing going for this conference and CBS brass laughed Slive out of the room.


Slive crushed the CBS timeslot bullshite with his launch of the SEC Network.

I normally don't do research for posters advocating for a different viewpoint, but you seem somewhat challenged on a subject that has been so thoroughly analyzed so here goes...

The 5-year impact of Texas A&M, Missouri joining the SEC...al.com

Texas A&M and Missouri Worth at least $114 million a year to SEC Network... OutKick

Slive Shares Insights on SEC's addition of A&M, Missouri...FOX Sports

There are literally dozens of articles documenting what a coup this was at the time. Read a little.

Slive went to CBS when you and aggy joined and asked for a pro rata increase for the 3:30pm slot contract.


CBS and time slots??? That’s hilarious! You are clearly a small picture guy!

Slive negotiated the fricking SEC NETWORK with the A&M and Mizzou cable markets in his back pocket.

Time slots? C’mon you’re not this obtuse are you?

Why would you hate the school that is singularly responsible for you being in the SEC?


All shite talking aside, you shouldn’t be so stupid about the 2012 expansion and Slive’s deal making ability. Read a business article or two. Texas A&M played a big part. Texas never entered the conversation.
I dunno, I kinda like the Sydney commercials!

Axing for a friend, has Mizzou ever beaten Texas


No time to look that up now, but do you know offhand when the last time Mizzou won a conference championship? You seem to be on top of these things.

Who’s acting high and mighty? I just opined about the difference in mindset.

Sorry if being honest is somehow offensive to you.


No worries, I'm not easily offended.

Difference in mindset? No one is over the moon at MU. Most of us are pissed that we dropped a winnable game to State and embarrassed by our showing at Ole Miss.

Well he wasnt wrong.


Well quite literally he was. He made the asinine statement in early 2013. Mizzou went 11-3 that season and Texas was 8-5. Didn't even age a year.

If you ask Texas fans around here if we are having a bad year you will find a consensus of belief that we are having a bad year.

6-2 with a win over #1 OSU. A few weeks at #1 and currently #10 yet we are dissatisfied.

Missouri has the same record, ranked in the top 20, and y'all are over the moon with the success.

It is what it is.


I wouldn't act so high and mighty were I a Texas fan. Since Dodds made that statement, Texas has gone 110-66 and Missouri has gone 105-68. Giving Texas a paltry 1.81 win percentage over the Tigers and most of the Texas win activity came in the weaker Big XII.
