Mizzou dominated Texas A&M 30-9 and the game wasn't that close. Mizzou's wide receivers are impressive. But it was surprising that the Missouri coaching staff left Blaine Gabbert in for most of the game, particularly given that their offensive plan was ineffectual in the 4th quarter. I'm just hoping that Mizzou's defense is as real as it looks. The next two weeks will be key: Oklahoma at home and then Nebraska in Lincoln.
Living in Texas, it's amazing how the sportswriters are such a bunch of homers until they get down on someone. Every single writer for the Austin Statesman picked A&M to win. What a bunch of losers.
Speaking of getting down on someone, not many people around here gave Texas much of a chance against Nebraska. I had a feeling that Texas's defense had something to prove and that Texas would beat Nebraska. Everyone I told thought I was crazy. Muschamp's defense shut down the run, Nebraska had to pass and it turns out that Nebraska's wide receivers would be better suited as defensive backs--they can't catch a football. Expect stickum sales to be up in Lincoln for the rest of the season.
Mack Brown showed once again that he's the nicest guy/lousiest coach in BCS football. That pooch kick halfway through the 4th quarter was a real gem of a call.
