Mizzou #10 in Coaches Poll

This is bad ass news... Why are we not bloging about this??? MU defeats KU in a game where both teams are ranked, and Josh cannot even get us a Random Royal of the week update..

Missouri is 22-4 and 9-2 in the Big 12 these numbers have not been since the stormin Norman Days. MU has 5 remaining regular season games before the Big 12 tournament and a legitimate chance to have a first round buy in the tourney. Of the 5 remaining games MU will be on the road 3 times which includes games against a weak Colorado that has on 1 win in the conference, the DIRTY jayhawks which have only 1 loss (BAM- MIZ-FKU) in conference, and Texas A&M which has been strong at home as of late. Missouri which has been dominant at home all year winning by a margin 26.7 points on their home court will play Kansas State who beat the tigers earlier in the season and a very strong Oklahoma team which is currently rank #2 in that nation, but most likely moving to #1 after Connecticut’s loss on Monday.

I think it is possible for Missouri to emerge 27-4 at the end of regular season play, but it is more likely they will lose 1 or 2 of these games. Either way Missouri seems a lock for the NCAA tournament.
