You threw out a blanket statement that the schedule was going to be horrendous the next few years and asked why they wouldn't consider picking up a mid-major with a pulse... even though 3/4 of the schedule is unknown and the mid-major on the slate next year is a team that has won 28 games the past 3 years and played in its conference title game each year.

I don't expect big things from the 2015 schedule. I imagine it might look something like this year's (which is pretty respectable, really... I had no problem selling 4 non-premium seats this week for a grand total of $250 - $10 above face). If they can find a UCF like team, the OOC won't be horrendous.

And, ultimately, playing in the SEC, even with the unbalanced schedule, Missouri plays in a division with 3 teams that will be ranked preseason more often than not (Georgia, Florida, South Carolina). The league has a conference championship game. That schedule overall is very, very rarely going to be "horrendous."

Honestly, there's not much of a need to respond to such a ridiculous post. After Mizzou drilled Illinois year after year, the ones I know are happy they don't have that loss on their schedule. Arky is supposed to be our new rival, but we haven't played them yet. And nobody cares about the big 12.

The article posted is commenting on our OOC schedule, which is nowhere near complete. It reads like something PB would post.
