How 'bout them Tigers! My beloved Missouri Tigers came from behind twice yesterday to defeat their arch-rival Kansas 41-39 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
The Tigers defense got pushed around all afternoon long but stepped up big time at the end and sacked KU quarterback Sod Reesing for a safety to cut the chickenhawks lead from 39-38. Three plays later the Tigers were inside the KU five and a couple of plays later the game was over and the Tigers had won.
Kudos to Blaine Gabbert, Derrick Washington and Danario Alexander who moved through a lame Kansas defense pretty much at will. Gabbert passed for over 400 yards, Washington had several key runs for touchdown and Alexander had over 220 yards receiving on the day. And a tip of the hat to the Tiger coaching staff of Gary Pinkel.
The Tigers shot themselves in the foot all afternoon long with stupid penalties and even dumber personal fouls. But, in the end the cream rose to the top and Mizzou has bragging rights for at least the next year. And you know what makes the win even sweeter? Missouri handed Kansas it's seventh consecutive defeat after they had started the year 5-0. Yep, the chickenhawks were a fraud from the start and all that bull about their winning the Big 12 north was just that...a bunch of hot air. And to top it all off Mark Mangino and his band of losers are done for the season and aren't going anywhere near a bowl unless they buy a ticket!!!
MIZ - ZOU RAH!!!
