Mizzou went 4-1 against today's two competitors, so we'll consider this a more enjoyable hate...
Buzz Williams
Aside from Ron Prince, there might not be a more enjoyable person to hate on this list than Buzz Williams. It is difficult to make such a strong impression on a fanbase in just one game, but Williams managed to do that in Missouri's 2009 NCAA Tournament matchup with Marquette. He managed to infuriate Mizzou fans in all the ways that Kelvin Sampson once did, and he managed to throw an incredible fit at the end to boot.
Williams is here mostly for comic relief, obviously, but ... the morbid curiosity involved when Williams was briefly mentioned as a candidate for the Mizzou vacancy in April? Epic. Heads would have exploded, especially later on when we may have actually begun to (gasp) ... like him. Thank goodness we can hold onto this random, silly hatred.
Todd Reesing
Really, if not for the 2008 game at Arrowhead, Mizzou fans would have little reason to even remember Todd Reesing. They went 3-1 against him, they took him down in the biggest game in the history of the Border War, and they ended his career with a second sack in the same end zone two years later. But the 2008 game happened, so he makes this list. Oh yeah, and...
That too.

I really think the left picture
says it all. Let’s count the instances of douchiness:
- Jorts (cut-offs, too)
- Low-cut or unbuttoned American Flag Shirt (possibly tucked into underwear)
- Backwards Visor
- Bro-love (not as bad as the franzia pic, but still somewhat present)
- Attempted Puppy eating
that picture has to be a joke.
or I hope to god it is

definitely not
Remember seeing these pictures a while back. Ol’ Sod is just a giant tool. And know a thing or two about tools…

Discussion point:
Would the Dream Team still defeat Angola today? And by Dream Team, I mean the Dream Team, while by Angola, I mean today’s Angola National team

EPIC DOUCHE-OFF
But, in a route, it’s Sod all the way

This vote was actually kind of hard for me.
I still have 2009 Marquette game on DVR, so I see Buzz quite a bit. But in the end I had to vote for Sod. It’s pretty nice that on the final play of his career, he scored 2 points for Missouri.
Which made a total . . .
. . . of four career points for Mizzou. That may be a record for opposing players.
Ties Stephen McGee.

To me,
All Todd Reesing did was serve as a reminder as to how much more awesome our football program is than ku’s. That’s the best they could do.

I had to vote for Sod
1) he’s a buzzard
2) they beat us, and that game was snowy (although not near as cold as 07)
3) he has a BCS bowl victory that should have belonged to the Tigers
and finally, I just find Buzz comical more than anything
This second round matchup will be weird

Or, Who do you hate more: the Player or the Game?

Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Except in this case, hate the player.

I voted for Reesing in this one
but I really hated Kerry Meier much more.
