I’ve read all the hype and I’ve seen all the videos. I’ve read all the predictions (all but one going to Mizzou).
I’ve made my last minute Mizzou purchases (since I live out of state). But now, it’s simply time…TO GET IT ON!

I've been waiting for this game for about eight months...
And these final few hours leading up to it are killing me. Let’s get it on.
Will...I...be...able...to...play...softball...tomorrow?
Oh, no, Mr. Scioscia. At this time tomorrow, you'll barely be able to breathe.

I can't wait.
My husband drove from KC to St. Louis for the game – or at least tried to. His transmission went out in Kingdom City and he is on his way back to KC in a tow truck. What a bummer. Hopefully he will be here for the Second Half.

Holy
Oklahoma up 21-0 in the 1st against mighty Chattanooga. Good Lord. And that Chris Brown kid is scoring touchdowns and dancing, again. I’ll say it again. I want to see Texas Tech or Texas in the Big 12 Championship, if we get there. Oklahoma is terrifying.

First half observations
*Solid O-line blocking on the running plays
*Washington looked shaky early, but settled down and looked like the back we all thought he could be: Awesome
*Defensive backfield has been shaky on tackling and coverage
*Jeremy Maclin has been held in check on the offense (double teams and shadowing) but you can’t hold him down on Kick returns
*Either our D is AMAZING at stopping the run or Illini offense couldn’t run through an open barn door
*Saunders – uncharacteristically dropping footballs
*Coffman – characteristically catching footballs
*Defense has stopped the option VERY well, you can tell because Juice has been forced to pitch the ball every time
*My biggest nervousness was about something that didn’t even happen in the first half: MUs punting.

Illinois is actually throwing the ball downfield.
Everything Mizzou has done lately has been dink and dunk. When you’re working out of the spread, that can be disastrous. That is how you kill drives early.
Couple that with the fact that the defense has blown coverage several times tonight (one was overthrown by Williams early, it would have been a TD), and you have a really scary situation right now.
I wonder what kind of adjustments the offense will make when they get it again. The dink and dunk strategy to kill clock obviously isn’t working.

When you are running the ball in the spread offense, you’re giving the running back the ball five back of the LOS.
