Two steps forward...One step back

Missouri's football team just doesn't have that killer instinct. The Tigers were up by two touchdowns in the fourth quarter against Kansas State yesterday and they blew the game. The final was 36-28, but it was really much closer than that. And congratulations to Brad Smith, even though he made one of the dumbest plays you have ever seen late in the fourth quarter when the Tigers still had a chance to win. Brad becomes the first player in NCAA history to run for four thousand yards and pass for eight thousand yards in a career.

Mizzou ends the season at 6-5 and the final game loss hurts. But at least it will be heading to a bowl. Granted it will be a very small bowl, but still it's post season play and the seniors will get one more chance to prove themselves.
