No more bye weeks. It’s now or never for Mizzou’s fledgling College Football Playoff hopes. Realistically, I know what I just typed isn’t feasible. It might not be fair. Mizzou is down two captains and starting-caliber QBs. They’re down to their third stringer and, as much as we love Matt Zollers and can see a […]

It’s easy to forget, but Missouri’s start to the 2026 recruiting cycle hit a bit of turbulence back in May. First, John Burroughs center Sheek Pearson committed to Marquette and would later reclassify to join the Golden Eagles this season.

As the clocks fall back, Mizzou volleyball fell flat on its face in a 3-2 loss against Vanderbilt 24-26, 25-13, 25-23, 25-21, 14-16; a team that had previously only won a single SEC match.

Before last season, Mizzou needed to erase the dread from the 2023-24 season. The mission was mostly accomplished. The Tigers got back to the NCAA Tournament, but they lost a frustrating game to Drake. Entering this season, the Big Dance appears to be a reasonable expectation. Whether Mizzou gets there or not depends on a […]

I guess I’m turning this into an annual tradition. Bill C. used to do a ‘Count the Ifs’ post before each football season, and once Nate came on board he took it over and has kept the tradition going with aplomb. Last year, I wanted to try the same for basketball. Missouri was coming off […]

The Missouri Tigers welcomed in conference opponent Vanderbilt (women) and D2 McKendree (men/women) to the gorgeous Mizzou Aquatic Center — I love that place and have such fond memories of it from my coaching days — on November 1, and came away with a very convincing sweep in the double dual, with the men beating […]

At 41 years old, Max Scherzer doesn’t have much left to prove. Three Cy Young Awards. Two World Series rings. More than 3,400 strikeouts.

I hope everyone had a nice quiet week, and a good Halloween last night. Halloween is one of those holidays that seems to have fallen by the wayside a bit for me personally. We live in North St. Louis County now, and have for the last 10 years (if you were unaware), and post-COVID our […]

The only thing scarier than the Boogeyman this Halloween is how red hot the Mizzou volleyball team has become. The Tigers extended their winning streak to seven with a 3-1 win over No. 16 Tennessee 25-21, 23-25, 25-23, 25-17. The two teams were almost identical in every category, but Mizzou was much more efficient on […]

Let’s start with some honesty: The SEC is going to take a step back. That’s inevitable coming off a season where the SEC put 14 teams in the NCAA tournament, nabbed a pair of top seeds, sent two teams to the Final Four, and saw Florida claim a national title. But if you checked in […]

Or, why I spend so much time looking at the rest of the SEC. Also, Happy Halloween! I can be accused of being a bit of a homer, viewing things with Mizzou basketball with rose-colored glasses. A large part of that comes from me just wanting to enjoy my sports fandom, and doom and gloom […]
