To say another team or fanbase wants it more than us is a failure, on ALL levels. That’s just simply not Missouri.

We’ve lost to the lowest of the low, we’ve beaten the best, and everything else in the middle.

I don’t know a single Mizzou fan that doesn’t smile with pride after any victory. And curse any loss.

I sincerely hope the reason Illinois beats us in basketball going back to Norm is simply not them wanting it more. That would suck.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

Illinois beat by 22 on their home court by Penn St. - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:16:00

Fwiw, PSU is now 18-9(nm) - STL1DFW STL - 2/11 21:16:16

Their overall & conference records are both mediocre if you - zounami MU - 2/11 21:21:31

Yes, hence the “fwiw.”(nm) - STL1DFW STL - 2/11 21:40:39

PSU has a BPI higher than MU. (nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:31:18

Is that the only metric where they are better than us? - tgr MU

Keep using it? I used it yesterday for the first time. - tjwheeler UI - 2/12 10:23:57

By 6 points for now. Meanwhile PSU’s SoS is 75th, while - STL1DFW STL - 2/11 21:45:37

Except...Toughest Remaining Schedules: PSU #2; MU #49 - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 22:34:24

Don’t forget the Conference Tournaments. PSU better - STL1DFW STL - 2/12 01:30:13

Just saying there isn't a seismic difference between MU/PSU. - tjwheeler UI - 2/12 07:02:11

38 to 41 in Kenpom though - KC rules MU - 2/11 22:00:51

Sos sure is(nm) - STL1DFW STL - 2/11 22:27:46

That was a tough loss but in fairness IU really played - Tiger Tim MU - 2/11 20:38:56

Hurts to admit, but they have our #. However 2 positives: - tiger4real MU - 2/11 20:43:27

The game means more to Illinois than it does to Mizzou... - zounami MU - 2/11 20:54:07

it's more important because they win all the time - Jeff85 MU - 2/12 08:21:45

You keep saying this, but that doesn't make it true - Cosmo MU

- 2/11 20:58:50

He's right this time. It's very evident that UI cares more - alwaysright MU - 2/11 21:37:59

People like to get drunk and have fun. - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:39:35

Then you haven't followed the series like I have... - zounami MU - 2/11 21:03:32

The only thing that sucks more than Illinois BB this year - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:32:20

lol ummmmmm - Cosmo MU

Well technically I think he's right, I haven't followed it - Cosmo MU

- 2/11 21:32:10

so would you say the kU game was our Super Bowl?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 21:05:53

No... explain your logic. (nm) - zounami MU - 2/11 21:06:48

the reasons you state the BR game is their Super Bowl - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 21:12:42

First of all, I never stated reasons as to why the rivalry - zounami MU - 2/11 21:19:16

I never stated you stated that - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 21:22:53

zounami has tremendous respect for Illinois as a program - MakeShift MU - 2/11 20:35:49

And we lost to them.... sad(nm) - blackngold MU - 2/11 20:20:36

and North Carolina lost to Wofford... It happens.... - zounami MU - 2/11 20:26:33

i Agree def their super bowl(nm) - blackngold MU - 2/11 20:36:34

their program no longer has NCAA tournament aspirations... - zounami MU - 2/11 20:52:31

RE: Will help HCCM recruit the fertile plains of Lincoln Land - Third_Eye STL - 2/11 20:36:11

Underwood was a bad hire. I think UI fans are starting to - zounami MU - 2/11 20:17:33

that doesn't surprise me you feel that way - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:19:40

He was left with a better roster than Cuonzo was. (nm) - zounami MU - 2/11 20:23:13

You again don't know what you're talking about. - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:28:55

nope(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:26:04

it's absolutely true, but we'll have to agree to disagree (nm) - zounami MU - 2/11 20:27:42

it's debatable, maybe TJ Wheeler can weigh in on it - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:30:01

then he's making excuses for Underwood. Cuonzo inherited - zounami MU - 2/11 20:49:39

I agree completely regarding the job Cuonzo has done - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:54:55

I'm sure he'll be objective, as always. (nm) - zounami MU - 2/11 20:56:27

Says the KU fan who hides as a MU fan(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:29:38

so him slamming their lack of talent is him being a homer?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 2/11 20:57:44

Absolutely. He's downplaying their talent as an excuse for - zounami MU - 2/11 21:00:18

No, I use actual facts and do not excuse poor coaching. - tjwheeler UI - 2/11 21:30:54

HE'S NO BEN GOLL DURN HOWLAND OR MATT DADGUM RHULE!!!11!!1 - Mothball MU - 2/11 20:19:18
