Mizzou vs Illinois Highlight Video

by ZouDave on Aug 31, 2008 7:48 PM CDT

The Arch Rivalry was back at the center of attention again on August 30, 2008. Missouri once again jumped out to a big lead and held off an Illinois comeback to start the season 1-0 in a 52-42 win. This marks the first time since 1978 that Missouri has started the season by defeating a ranked opponent.

Make sure you're watching it in High Definition.

What was that? 20 hours after the game ended?

Sheesh, ZD. A touchdown handshake to you, sir.

I'm here to serve

wouldn’t have been able to pull that off if I’d been at the game, though.

Just watching that second "interception" by 'Spoon

That was one of the most incredible plays I’ve seen anyone make in the last year. Seriously, it just seemed like he had enough of this Illinois BS and decided to take it into his own hands (literally). Unbelievable play and gets my early vote for best play of the year so far.

Will...I...be...able...to...play...softball...tomorrow?
Oh, no, Mr. Scioscia. At this time tomorrow, you'll barely be able to breathe.

except I guess it should not have counted :-)

I did not notice it at the time, but after reading his comments and watching it again…yeah…pretty positive he was down :-)

Gratitude

I taped this on my computer but it only got the first 3 hours since the game ran so long. Thankfully there are more resourceful people like yourself who put these together. Great job, great highlights and it gives us all a chance to see more positives. Like Chase having the potential to throw to more than one open receiver in the end zone – again you’ll see in these replays.
Thanks!
