penisthightrap_ 19 Missouri appears to be a top 25 team, all of their metrics rank them that way. The consistent ranking across categories raises them (I bumped them down a few spots from the algorithm output), many teams have one category or anther bring them down. Rough schedule will tell very quickly if they will sink or swim.

lowes18 20 I personally came into this season expecting a drop off in QB play and defensive performance for Missouri, however I came away absolutely floored by the passing ability of Austin Simmons who simply made all of the perfect throws to prevent Kansas from ever seriously stopping Missouri. Their defensive line also successfully dominated an admittedly bad Kansas o-line despite the massive loss in talent from the draft and portal after 2025.

Zloggt 21 ...I'm obviously NOT going to be upset over a road rivalry win (teehee!)...but yeah, Eli probably needs some lessons on knowing WHEN to speak (and this is something Mizzou fans have generally talked about over the past few seasons before it REALLY showed up last week, haha...)

_THE__BOULDER_ 18 Despite what looked to be a pretty even first half ending tied at 14, Mizzou won the Border War fairly handily in the second half, claiming victory in the 38-21 game. These two fan bases seem to legitimately hate each other, and it looked like it might be a real slugfest in the first half, especially with some miscues like a missed field goal and a fumble for Mizzou, as well as a missed field goal and an interception for Kansas, but Kansas turned the ball over twice in the 3rd quarter, allowing Mizzou to take a dominant 2-score lead and take control of the game from there on out. Mizzou has a match up with Troy next week before going to play Mississippi St away for their first conference match up in 2 weeks.
