Mizzou Links, 1-3-11

We start with a link that does not really fall into any of the categories below; it is, plain and simple, a Mizzou link: The Trib's Year in Review recap.

Then, we move on to something that is becoming much more of a habit: a Mizzou player making a big play in the NFL.  This week, we only had Brad Smith ripping off a long option run, Ziggy Hood getting a sack for the third straight game, Chase Daniel completing his first regular-season pass, Chase Coffman making his first career start, Martin Rucker getting some special teams time and William Moore making a tackle for loss, and Sean Weatherspoon dumping Gatorade on his caoch.  Yawn.  Slow week.

The KC Star came through with two of their best articles in a long time this past weekend.  First, you've got Sam Mellinger's outstanding look at Marcus Denmon and the pain he's been experiencing lately.  Next, you've got a really interesting Brady McCullough article about how Mike Anderson, Frank Martin and Bill Self use stats to evaluate their players and their teams.  Well done, guys.
