The Kaufman exhibition awhile back gave Kansas some Kansas City bragging rights, but it's time for the teams to put up or shut up when it really counts in the Big 12 standings. For more on Kansas, make sure to drop by the Live Thread at RCT, which always does fine work with Big 12 baseball.

A recent slump has seen the team go from a national power to .500 in Big 12 play. A series win, or, to be greedy, a sweep would be huge in trying to recapture the mojo as the stretch run begins.

This is by all accounts a HUGE series for Mizzou and A&M, with the winner earning a big time boost in momentum in Big 12 play. Does Mizzou get a critical series win on the road against the conference leaders, or does the "Olsen Magic" get the best of the Tigers?

Make Rock M Nation your base of operations this weekend and weigh in with your predictions, questions, worries, bold statements and observations by signing up for a free account. The Tigers hit the road this weekend against a struggling Sooner squad. Does Priday continue his tear at the plate? Do the pitchers show any emotional scarring from the launch pad that was Taylor Stadium last weekend?

[editor's note, by rptgwb] By the way, Crimson and Cream Machine took the opportunity to use this weekend's baseball series as a way to bring up The San Antonio Debacle. Recall, I admitted that they were the better football team that night and deserved to win the game and I refuse to bring up dead arguments that were clearly settled. But since we're bringing up past memories and non-sequitirs, who didn't love the first week of January? Oops, I must have mislinked. I meant to link here.

The Tigers can make a big statement this weekend with a strong showing against one of the Big 12's powerhouses. Can the Tigers find some timely hitting, solid fielding and enough relief pitching to knock off the 'Horns?

The midweek loss to Minnesota may have hampered the atmosphere of invincibility just a bit, but the weekend rotation should be set and ready to go against the Raiders. Do Crow, Gibson, and Berger continue their recent run of dominance?

Make Rock M Nation your base of operations this weekend and weigh in with your predictions, questions, worries, bold statements and observations by signing up for a free account. The Mizzou pitching staff has been untouchable during the team's recent 10-game winning streak, but the Tigers get a major test in their opening series of Big 12 play. If there's ever a time to start following Mizzou Baseball, the time is now. As our colleagues at Corn Nation stated about the BU/MU series, "If there's a better series in the nation this weekend, I don't know where that would be." UPDATE: Apparently Rivals agrees with Corn Nation...
