Thats cool......what the **** has MU done in the last 100 yrs or so up to last season?

Listen I'm happy that MU is doing well and has a NC calibur team, And I do think the only team that can beat them is OU.....maybe TX, but to say they have program tradition such as "well known by most Americans" football schools like OU TX Bama, FLA, OSU, NEB, Mich, FSU, Miami etc is just silly.

I understand MU fans are excited because really they've never tasted success in any relative sport. Not trying to talk shit but it's the truth. But some people on here are just ****ing stupid about it.

What is the truth? Exactly what point are you attempting to make? About what are you suggesting that people are stupid?

Because the one thing that got all of the MU fans panties in a bunch is the fact the MU wants what NEB OU and TX have.....thats football tradition.....MU doesn't have that and every MU fan starts crying and stating otherwise with their reeruned arguments.

As far as recruits not knowing the traditions at places like Nebraska and Notre Dame? I don't know why they wouldn't.

About recruiting rankings: I think Rivals.com and Scout.com are frauds. I don't believe them. Many of Callahan's 4-star and 5-star recruits aren't very good. You saw several of them Saturday on defense, especially the seniors. Tom Osborne brings in the country's best defensive coach, and they still stink.

MU just wants to win, the same as any other team. Saying they want this BS "100 years of tradition" crap that doesn't mean anything at all is pretty stupid. It's basically the same thing that I said last year when MU fans were bagging on KU for being a "tradition since September". That garbage means nothing. People are going to need to start pulling their heads out of their asses and realize that college football has changed dramatically in the past 10 years. It doesn't matter who you used to be, it only matters what you are doing now.

I don't want "tradition." I want to win every game going forward. OU doesn't sit around and talk about the past; they want to win now. "Tradition" is only as good as the support/players it helps you to accumulate. NU has fans and facilities due to their tradition. MU has facilities and talent and is rebuilding the fanbase, tradition or no.

I would guess that T-Bone's $ will provide enough "tradition" that OSU will have facilities, talent, and fans in short order. Perhaps they can even get a coach.

OU is happy to talk about their past. However, I wouldn't trade the Huskers' tradition for the Sooners'. They can keep their probation violations.

I'm not emphasizing tradition because NU is down. The point is Mizzou isn't as great as their fans think. Mizzou fans made Saturday's game more dramatic than it was going to be. Right now, Nebraska is where Mizzou usually has been.

Uhhh OU does win now last time I checked.

MU has some boosters with pretty deep pockets also. Which is a good thing for ANY program that wants to win
