Mizzou Links, 1-8-10

Kudos to Texas for continuing to fight last night after the pre-halftime pick six could have (should have) ended all hope.  And hey, in the ongoing SEC-Big 12 battle, at least we can say "Yeah, but McCoy got hurt!" this time -- because I think it's easy to see how they could have kept right up and won the game with a healthy QB.  Anyway, that marks the end of a strange college football season (seems like ALL the main stories were injuries and coaching strangeness).  Moment of silence, please.

    Wildcats coach Frank Martin said he has developed an unorthodox method to deal with the suffocating traps and presses the Tigers employ. Whenever a player is in an uncomfortable position and about to give up a steal, Martin has advised them to toss the ball as far into the stands as possible. The strategy doesn't seem odd if you consider that last season, Missouri forced Kansas State to turn over the ball 21 times, including 13 steals. The turnovers proved to be the deciding factor in its 94-74-blowout victory at home.

    "That turnover gives us a chance to defend," Martin said during a teleconference Thursday morning. "The other turnovers, the one Missouri gets, which are steals, that creates major problems for us."
