Just for name alone.

Video with @Clint Cosgrove here

I'd like to see what he could do when given the chance that he's past his personal issues.

A couple of interesting stats I found:

- Average defensive efficiency ranking of teams Mizzou lost to this season… 18. Mizzou didn’t lose to a team with a defensive efficiency greater than 40. The first team Mizzou would potentially run into with a defensive efficiency below 40 wouldn’t be until the Sweet 16 if Creighton makes it that far. Utah State is 64th, Arizona 41st and Baylor 104th.

- Average 3P% defensive ranking of the teams Mizzou lost to… 31. The worst being A&M at 82nd in the country. The first team Mizzou would play with a 3P% defensive rating better than 82nd? Baylor if they make the Sweet 16. Utah State is 211th, Arizona is 99th and Creighton is 193rd.

If you are looking at the profile of teams that Mizzou lost to, it’s teams that all play borderline elite defense and in particular teams that play strong 3-point defense.

70 has been the magic number all year. There isn’t a ton supporting Utah State being able to keep us below that threshold. And you can make a compelling case Arizona wouldn’t be able to either, especially with their awful turnover rate. This could be a very special weekend if the three pointer is falling for Mizzou.

Right now ESPN gives them a 60.9% win probability.

hadn't seemed very likely as he had never visited

Is a giant douche. I've always hated him and his ridiculous takes, but this just iced the cake. He just stated that Kansas City was in the state of kansas. While part of his statement was technically true, the tournament is being played in Kansas City MO.

SMMFH!!!!!!!!!!

With all of the good vibes and news going around, I figured I put this reminder out there...

With them a 7 seed there was no way we were going to get to a 6. Still want to see what line Tennessee is on.

I love our draw by the way

Hopefully he brings that coveted trophy back to the SEC!

Kaelin committed 6 mins ago.

I asked Rocco Miller, who runs bracketeer.org and contributes to Field of 68, if Mizzou helped itself at all in the SEC tournament. Here's what he said:

"I think Missouri has played their way up to the 7-line of the bracket. I believe the committee was watching Tennessee a little extra carefully because of the Ziegler injury. Due to that they may have also been impressed by the team that beat them again, Missouri. In general, Michigan State lost to Ohio State and that opened up a spot for them to move up as well.

"So, yes they helped themselves in the SEC tourney to a degree. I think they were looked at very closely for the final spots on the seven seed line to start the week as well. If the Tennessee win is factored in, it's pretty clear to put Missouri as a 7."

He thinks there's like a 15% chance they end up as a 6. He had them on the 7/10 line yesterday against Penn State with Texas as the 2 seed. He'll put out one more bracket after the conference tournaments wrap up.

We've posted 24 stories since Saturday morning. Catch up on anything you missed here because I know a lot of people just come to the message board

It's March! It's bracket time! Mizzou is going to Sacramento! Let's talk about it!

I think Thursday teams travel Tuesday. But couldn't find a reference. But here are the facts I found:

NCAA directly reimburses travel expenses.
Per diem: $215/day

Travel party: 75
31 Open (Team, coaches, Admin, etc.)
29 band members
1 band director
12 cheerleaders
1 cheer coach
1 mascot

Hotel choice is by seed line.
Teams can relocate if upsets occur.

Drumming up a little hate for our first round opponents. I’ll start…

Q: What do you get when you quickly drive through the Aggies campus?
A: An undergrad degree.

Q: Why aren't Utah State cheerleaders allowed to do the splits?
A: They stick to the ground.

Q: What’s the most confusing day in Utah?
A: Father’s Day

Ba-Dum-Tss!!



I’ll show myself out….
