Okay I will admit it might be a bit bold to assume women are reading the writings of dude’s like myself, but even they women if they are reading should be excited about the recent MIZZOU Tigers basketball win. The tigers finished off USC with a 11 point victory, 83-72. I will admit that I can not remember the last time the black & gold beat a ranked basketball team that was not in the Big 12 conference. Although USC barely cracks the top 20, squeaking in at 19, and suffered it first loss to an unranked Seton Hall this past Thursday, they are still a ranked basketball team. I know is it a bit premature to purchase tickets to the Final Four but we must celebrate this victory, for it has been too long of a drought.
***Okay I am back.. just got off the phone with ticket master -- had to book my final four ticket**
I know the past 3 years we have been tied to the excitement of Tiger football so watching the basketball team lose became part of the week’s routine as we waited for football weekend. I will be the first to tell you that I have no idea who is on the starting five, or who will be the go to man on the court, and I can only hope that my boy Mat Lawrence is still shooting bombs from downtown, but I am now motivated to find out. I am almost positive that this is the first year Mike Anderson is without the baggage of the FAILED (cocaine) years of Quinn Synder and the fourth game of the season is a win over a top 25 team. BAM—Hello Mike Anderson!!!

This is a good win indeed. It is also good to see the veterans like Carroll and Lyons playing well along with the rooks.
