Pay him whatever he wants.

How far does Miami fall in the polls on Monday? Keep in mind they just beat a team that lost to lowly Vanderbilt by only 2 points.

We shall see…..

4 drives inside the Purdue 40 and 0 points, including a missed FG, a blocked FG and an offensive PI that took a TD off the board

Close game so far. Stoops’ team is playing ugly football, with plenty of whining at the refs. So glad they aren’t on the schedule.

Down 14-0 to Western Kentucky in the 2nd. BC without their QB today

That’s it…. Nick effin Bolton!

Brady Cook in the final seven games of 2023

109/181 (60.2), 1438 yards (205.6 per game), 8 TD, 4 INT

Brady Cook in the first four games of 2024

92/134 (68.2), 946 yards (236.5 per game), 4 TD, 1 INT

26 carries, 97 yards (3.73 ypc, 24.25 ypg), 4 TD

Total offense: 1043 yards (260.75 per game), 8 total TD

Team record: 4-0

Just some food for thought for those who say Mizzou cannot win at the level necessary to reach the playoff with Brady playing the way he is playing. He's actually been slightly better this year overall other than yards per attempt (7.1 vs 7.9) than he was in the final seven games of last year, a span in which Mizzou's only loss was at No. 4 Georgia in a game it was driving to take the lead with five minutes to go.

A group of buddies and myself will be heading to the game in college station. In the process of making a decision on parking. So, what lots will my Tiger brethren be parking in? Thanks in advance!

Both need to drop from Top 15 after this weekend.

Still no clips of Mizzou?

Lee Corso…it’s sad. It’s elder abuse at this point…

Poor Herbstreit…obviously has so much affection for Corso.

Anyone here who hasn't yet checked these guys out would very likely enjoy it. Kevin Rutland plays the host and has Jeremy Maclin and Sean Weatherspoon along to break things down on offense and defense respectively. They clearly follow Mizzou closely and bring the unique perspective of playing at MU and the NFL. Additionally, JMac shares a bit from the coaching perspective. Check them out wherever you get your podcasts.

Fun little tidbit that I recieved recently. Lees Summit North HS recently promoted their OC to the head coaching position. The other two finalists were DeMontie Cross - former Mizzou DC under Odom and current TCU director of player personnel - and Jeremy Maclin from Kirkwood. Some familiar names at a familiar program.

Cam Ward with a fumble. Virginia Tech has already thrown for a TD on a short field.

Supposed to play TCU there Saturday and apparently they don’t even have a contract with the Chiefs signed yet.

ACC just protected its best chance at having multiple playoff teams by robbing Virginia Tech.

All-name team, was a Georgia commit coming out of high school, drawing a lot more interest this season in JUCO...more on Missouri's latest offer above

Caught up with Best after his return visit to Missouri this past weekend. He told me Missouri is a "top school of mine," so take that FWIW. Best has also taken gameday visits to Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas Tech so far this season. He said he's going to LSU at some point as well. Would say that's probably his top group right now and he does have an early FutureCast prediction to Oklahoma, so we'll see how things shake out.

Also exchanged messages with Robinson and Missouri made a very strong impression on him during his time on campus this past weekend based on his responses. Obviously, a top WR target in the 2026 for the Tigers. Robinson has also taken gameday visits to Texas A&M and Oregon so far this season.

I'll have stories on both later this week

CBS thinks so

Their top 5 WR's and their kicker are all out this week against Auburn??
