I'll be honest...it is not as pretty as the work The Boy
or rpt does…but at least the tables came out halfway decently :-)

I don't think Mizzou can win this game
But I hope I’m wrong. If Leo and DeMarre can get going early, maybe we can win this thing.
Your 2008 Missouri Tigers! #12 9-2 (5-2). Next up kU at Arrowhead. BIG 12 NORTH CHAMPS!

Very, very glad that Quin is gone.
Brian Dailey would discover him passed out in an alley in downtown San Juan right about…
…
…
…now.

the game will start about 25 minutes late
previous game must have went long.
We’re playing it on BXR and KFRU, but not streaming. Any ling for the game on the web?

Caught this off of T-board...might work for audio/vidio
also…I dont know if KMOX.com does streaming audio while the game is on or not…I “believe” Mizzou is on there for hoops.

Game is about to end, Tech with a 17 point win
Mizzou should likely tip pretty close to 12:15 am guessing

Didn't get to see or listen to it...
…I was at the Rockets/Mavs game and the game was blocked on FSN KC down here in Houston, so my DVR didn’t record it. Sounded like they played pretty poorly, but were never in serious danger of losing the game. It’s going to be a roller-coaster year for the Cats. I’m hoping for right around .500 in conference play, maybe just a little better because I can’t take my fan-glasses off all the time.

Balance, balance, balance
We have six guys averaging double figure points right now, led by redshirt freshman Jamar Samuels. Now obviously, that’s against pretty bad competition, but we’re averaging 88.7 points per game.
Honestly, I think we’re going to miss Beasley’s rebounding at least as much as his scoring.

appears to be a man among men right now in the league, especially on the rebounding front :-)

I am not so worried about the scoring...that will come I think
I was hoping to see a little more on the boards from him, since I do believe some of rebounding is just good ol’ fashioned effort.

I wish they'd split up Tiller and Taylor
Both are defense first guys and there’s no perimeter offense when they’re on the floor. Taylor/Denmon and Paul/Tiller are much better tandems IMO

need to do a better job of stopping the ball
once they get past the initial defender we aren’t forcing them to make a pass or even a tough shot

Tiller and Lyons with 16
MLaw with 4…rest of the team…..1 (and I think that was Safford)
Offensive foul on Carroll, who may be having his worst half at Mizzou
timeout on the floor….22-20 Thankfully Xavier has turned it over at least 8 times.
