Predictions- Mizzou v Illini

[Burrito Brother]

So all the shiite has pretty much been covered on the other thread.

I'll pick the Illini. Based on my heart, revenge from last year and any other intangibles that may be out there. I think Juice may surprise us.

For Mizzou, its best to lose early by a ranked team and I think they will go far, certainly farther than UI. They will make their statement in the Big 12.

Score? Who knows.

Mizzou will win by at least two touchdowns...

Missouri - 52
Illinois - 14

This first game will begin a trend of Missouri simply blowing out opponents this year.

Interesting that the person on this board who's reasonable talking about politics is the complete opposite when it comes to college sports.

I'm going to say Illinois wins by 5. Not sure what the score will be, though.

Juice is gonna set the Big 10(11) record for passing that'll turn the naysayers into believers...

I think it will be a close game for a while. MU's O-line will struggle at first. And it will take them some time to adjust to Illini's speed on the front four. But they'll adjust. MU's defense is going to put on a clinic. Just my opinion... I think this Tiger's defense will be special.

Best of luck to the Illini after this game... except in their recruiting, of course.

Mizzou will win. I hope I can find this game on somewhere when I am in NC.

I'm taking Missouri to beat the spread.

Shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty sure it's the national ESPN game.

[cardinalgirl]

oh good!

[sportschick]

I predict Mizzou will win and I will be somewhere, drinking copious amounts of beer, while watching said MU victory.

Holy shit. I didn't even read this thread before making my post. My score, as well. Great minds!
