We wrap up our week-by-week previews of Mizzou's 2008 opponents today with our final set of community projections. Here's all that went down during Kansas Week:

On to the questions!

What is the score of the Mizzou/Kansas game at Arrowhead?
What record does Kansas finish with, and what bowl (if necessary) will the Jayhawks be invited to?
Give us your best prediction for the lines of Chase Daniel and Todd Reesing for the game.
Which Jayhawk not named Todd Reesing scares you the most?
What's the attendance split at Arrowhead?

9/6: Louisiana Tech
9/12: at South Florida
9/20: Sam Houston State
10/4: at Iowa State

Here goes...

1. Mizzou 31-21

2. 9-3. Lose to OU, MU, and either Texas or Tech…believe I said Texas in the roundtable.

3. Daniel – 368 yards passing, 3 TDs, 1 INT
Reesing – 289 yards passing, 2 TDs, 2 INTs

4. Dezmon Briscoe, I guess.

5. 55-45 MU. And the KU AD will say it’s 60-40 KU.

Community Projections FTW

1. 28-24, Mizzou

2. Quoting the roundtable:

Definite losses against Oklahoma and (homer call) Missouri. I think they drop one of the home set against Texas and Texas Tech, and the trip to South Florida could be rather difficult. For now, I’ll give them benefit of the doubt and say 9-3.

3. Daniel: 34-of-43, 333 yards, 3 TD
Reesing: 30-of-47, 301 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

4. On a football field, Dexton Fields. In a dark alley, Jocques Crawford.

5. Somewhere between 60/40 and 65/35 in favor of Mizzou

Projections for a jhawk fan...

by the way I have enjoyed reading your board…

1. For the sake of supporting my team i’ll say 34-31 Kansas (although my brain tells me different)

2. I’m really hoping for a 9-3 record, Things have looked good at practices and I think we are more talented this year, but no doubt a much tougher schedule.

3. Danial 388 4 TD 2 INT (If he doesn’t turn it over we won’t win)
Reesing 287 3 TD 0 INT

4. This question doesn’t really apply to me but two guys who I think by the time we play you might be scary are Dezmon Briscoe and AJ Steward (made the move to tight end)

5. I’ll be there this year and was there last year and last year I would guess it was 60/40 Mizzou, this year I’m going to say unfortunately it might swing to 65/35.

Projections...

1. 45-24 Missouri
2. 8-4 record
3. Daniel: 33-50 for 350 yards. 4 TDs, 1 int.
Reesing: 25-35 for 275 yards. 2 TDs, 1 int.
4. Aquib Talib. Wait, he’s gone? Oh.
5. 70-30 Missouri. I think at this point in the season MU will be 10-1 and KU will be 8-3. Jayhawkers will have less of an incentive than MU peeps to pony up the big bucks on eBay for the remaining seats.

I'll jump in for the Beaker projection

1. 49-24 Mizzou
2. 8-4- They lose to OU, MU, Texas, and Tech
3. Chase 35-49 370 4TD 0 picks
Sodd Reesing 28-50 about 280 yards 2 TD and 2 picks
4. That Briscoe guy seems to be a popular choice
5.65-35 MU

Here we go.

1) 49-20 Mizzou. And no, I’m not kidding. I think KU takes a substantial step back this season.
2) Almost sure wins: FIU, LaTech, Sam Houston, Iowa State, Kansas State
Almost sure losses: OU, Texas, Missouri
Toss ups: @ South Florida, vs. Colorado (being kind to CU), vs. Texas Tech (being kind to KU), @ Nebraska,
So that’s 5-7 worst case, 9-3 best case, and a realistic 7-5. Like I said, a substantial step back.
3) Chance McDanielson: 33-45, 410yds, 5TDs, 2 INTs
Todd Reesing: 22-40,290 yds, 2 TDs, 4 INTs
4) Mark Mangino.
5) 55/45 Mizzou

Did somebody say cake?

1) 35-17 Zou.
2) I think they drop the big ones; OU, Texas, MU. I also think they drop one more they should win like a CU/NU, so 8-4.
3) Chase Daniel: 41-52, 350 yds, 3TDs, 0 INTs
Todd Reesing: 22-40,290 yds, 1 TDs, 1 INTs
4) Briscoe
5) 65/35 Mizzou

Pain Train

1. 4 touchdowns. last year was magical for both teams, but Missouri still has a lot of the talent it had last year. Kansas lost a lot of good players.

2. They are going to get absolutely crushed by South Florida. destroyed. That will set the tone for a 7-5 season.

3. Chazz: 37-43, 357 yds, 4 TDs, 0 INTs
Reese: 28-49, 312 yrds, 2 TDs, 3 INTs

4. Briscoe is good

5. 63/37 Mizzou

Let's say...

1. 31-30 KU (I love predicting scores nearly four months in advance, especially before we’ve seen either team play a game).

2. I’m already on record as going with 10-3 with the losses coming to OU twice (sound familiar?) and Nebraska. However, South Florida is going to really tough as well. Not to mention Tech, UT and MU, the latter of which being the most difficult.

3. Daniel: 34-51, 330 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INTs
Reesing: 28-40, 290 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs

4. Clearly the scariest guy on the team is Joe Mortensen. But from the persepctive of who might hurt Mu the most this year, I’ll take Crawford.

5. 55/45 MU
