Late start this morning...oh well, huh?
First things first: get well soon, Mike Kelly. Mizzou's got one of the neatest, most unique play-by-play men in the country, and I hope he's feeling better soon.
Now...remember that Texas win? It was great, right? Now it's over--time to get ready for tomorrow's trip to Ames, where Mizzou has lost 13 of their last 15. The KC Star has a quick preview, and mutigers.com has all the information you could possibly need (and if they don't, Cyclones.com does). ISU's only 1-6 in conference and 1-2 at home, but they thumped Nebraska and fought well against KU and OU at home as well, so expect a battle. And this is the PERFECT trap game for Mizzou--they just won a huge game, and they have the biggest game of the season (KU at home) on Monday. Cross your fingers.
Defense. Toughness. A legitimately strong resume. These are not things we're used to talking about with Mizzou Basketball, but we're there...and it's pretty friggin' fun.
That's right--ISU's up first, but it's never too early to start reminiscing about previous great KU games...
To football! Will it be tight end Sheldon Richardson or defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson? Or maybe Hutchinson Blue Dragon Sheldon Richardson? Call it Round 2 of the Richardson saga, and The Trib's on top of it.
Don't want recruiting to end? Already want to dive into the 2010 class? That's okay--so does PowerMizzou. Check out the first CHAMBER!!!!! of the '10 class...
Finally, quickly to wrestling, where The Missourian has a lovely story on Raymond Jordan and the struggles it took to get where he is today...
Oh yeah, and don't forget...
