I am doubling this up due to the fact that I believe that the Missouri Tigers will end Pat Knight's tenure as Texas Tech Red Raiders coach and move on to face Texas A & M Aggies.  Mizzou is more than capable of beating Tech.  I know it in my Black and Old Gold heart! I also think that it will be WAY too late after the game ends on Wednesday for me to post anything of note before the game on Thursday.

As you all may know, Mizzou vs. TTU is not half bad.  Mizzou has NEVER lost to Tech on a Neutral Court.  In fact, within the borders of the great state of Missouri, TTU is 2-8 against the Tigers.  I believe that these trends will continue. (They have)

NOW that leaves the Tigers with the thorn-in-the-backside Texas A&M Aggies.  Mizzou has not beaten A&M ever under CMA.  BUT the Tigers have NEVER lost to A&M on a Neutral Court either.  One of these trends will continue in KC.  And I think I know which way the Tiger Faithful will lean...

Both series histories after the jump...
