Mizzou Links, 12-23-13: No Braggin' Rights, and Steckel has moved on from Auburn

Illinois has Braggin' Rights for the first time since December 22, 2009. Also: Dave Steckel and the Mizzou defense have moved on from the Auburn game, and Kony Ealy's stock has taken off like a rocket. And I talk like somebody from Missouri and Oklahoma.
