Game Thread: #8 Missouri at Kentucky (ESPNU)

Missouri favored by 14.5

 

[Clayton]

DGB is stat padding so far

 

[UNA Lion]

Should be an easy win for Mizzou.

 

[Clayton]

I guess the only thing of note so far is that Mizzou hasnt forced a turnover yet

28-3 Mizzou at the half

halftime stats

total yards
252 -- Mizzou
102 -- UK

turnovers
1 -- Mizzou
0 -- UK

Mizzou QB Maty Mauk has 3 TD, 0 INT... two to the prodigy Dorial Green-Beckham

 

[Clayton]

Mizzous defense just totally stops playing whenever they get a big lead. It happens every game

 

[brin3535]

They sure do. They looked like the couldn't care less on the first drive of the 2nd half.

 

[Clayton]

And there is that turnover.

 

[brin3535]

Oh my god what a catch by DGB! TD MIZZOU!

 

[Clayton]

DGB plays like a hybrid of Plaxico Burress and AJ Green. His upside in the NFL is interesting because he is built to bail out mediocre/sub par QBs

 

[Clayton]

I really hope we dont get matched up with a power running team in a bowl game. A team like Stanford would destroy us. Our dline is fast but lacks strength

Agreed. I've been thinking about that all season. If we kake the SECCG Bama will roll us.

 

[brin3535]

Four TDs for DGB today. So glad he stayed home. Andrew bagget can go fuck himself.

SEC Championship Game vs Alabama?

LSU and South Carolina are the only teams left that could beat Bama in the SEC, imo. Auburn looks like they really, really struggle against the run.

28-3 Mizzou at the half

halftime

Mizzou QB Maty Mauk has 3 TD, 0 INT... two to the prodigy Dorial Green-Beckham

Mauk has 5 TD, 0 INT... 4 to the prodigy Dorial Green-Beckham (who has another 100 yard day already)

41-17 Mizzou in the early 4th

 

[Clayton]

While James Franklin adds another dimension, Im not sure he should be back running the show when he is healthy. Mauk has at least earned split duty, imo

Wasn't that you that said you could so wait for next year when Mauk would be the starter? This offense runs more efficiently with JF at the helm. Mauk is still too green in my opinion.

 

[brin3535]

Why the HELL is JF in this game?

Yeah, that was me who said that. Mauk has gotten better as things have progressed*, though. He looks confident out there and he has a better arm than Franklin. Franklin is great at the zone read and is a more physical presence but he has never been all that accurate.

*Kentucky might also just be really bad
