2. Pinkel vs. heat

KC Star: Missouri’s Gary Pinkel has responded to pressure before
Post-Dispatch (Burwell): Pinkel is feeling the heat of SEC

Burwell, you had me until this:

Call it the SEC Effect, a 'what-have-you-done-for-me-lately' phenomenon that is quite the rage in this football-obsessed land far below the Mason-Dixon line. … But this urgent lack of patience and short memory of what Pinkel has accomplished is the first sign that Mizzou fans are heading in that maniacal direction.

Because if there's one thing Missouri fans were known for before the move to the SEC, it was patience. Yep. Patience. Pretty sure it's not just the fans with the short memory...
