Well, a rough ending to a semi-successful season. OU's beating was an unfortunate wrap up to the team's overall performance over the past several years. The seniors will without a doubt be greatly missed, and I know I can speak for all Tiger fans when I say we're anxious to see what the future holds for the team.

So long, farewell... until next year.

My Achy Breaky Heart
Wow. That's about all I can say. Yesterday's loss was definitely not what I nor any other Tiger expected. Is this a lesson to always be prepared for the unexpected? Maybe so. Especially with such a big rivalry. I guess this proves that when you play with heart you can overcome your weaknesses.

Starting the Countdown
T-12 hours before the big kick-off!! I'm so sad that I won't be able to attend the game this year, but my heart is with every single one of the Tigers and all the fans. I can't wait to see it. I know Mizzou will just blow kU out of the water. There's just no doubt about it. The rivalry is so incredible, and it will be great to win yet again at Arrowhead. So I leave you with this: M-I-Z, Beat k-U!

It's All About Them Dolla Dolla Bills
Gary Pinkel is certainly reaping the benefits from Missouri's first back-to-back division titles since the 20s. The Associated Press reported that Pinkel's new contract is going to give him a big raise: from $1.85 million to $2.5 million. The deal isn't complete, but regardless it looks like good ol' Gary will be living more than comfortably (not that he doesn't already). But despite the fact that he'll be around for while longer, some of his coaching staff won't be. New Mexico is looking to steal Dave Christensen (Pinkel's offensive coordinator) and apparently the defensive coordinator is being sought by other schools, too. I guess the seniors aren't the only ones graduating. Read the SI.com story here.

Big 12 North...
Champs again?? Or are you all too scared to jinx it? ;) It's going to be cold in Ames Saturday!! Highs in the mid-30s with flurries and wind! Nice... Anyone remember two years ago? The game that ended up not counting... what a joke.
