Here is my take on the upcoming Mizzou football season: I don't see any huge breakthrough.
Same ol', same ol'.

11/10/07 vs. Texas A&M Columbia, Mo. TBA
Mizzou 12 Texas A&M 30
11/17/07 at Kansas State * Manhattan, Kan. TBA
Mizzou 21 Kansas State 20
11/24/07 vs. Kansas * Kansas City, Mo.
Mizzou 41 Kansas 17
That comes to 7-5 I'm afraid. I'm predicting a mid-season swoon, which we are generally good for every year. One horrible loss (to Iowa State in Columbia), which we are also good for every year. And one thrashing of the Jayhawks (which should happen more often.)

Seems plausible from what little I know about Mizzou. I applaud your specific predictions. I have to ask about the 18-20 loss to Iowa St. It's pretty ballsy to predict 18 points scored. Is that two touchdowns and two safeties or six field goals or two touchdowns, one missed extra point, one field goal and one safety or, dare I say, nine safeties? You can blow every thing else and if that 20-18 score comes through you will have taken the 2007 Prognosticator's Cup.
The way I see it Mizzou falls down 20-10, scores a late TD, gets the 2 point conversion, recovers the on-sides kick, drives to the 5 yard line, and flubs the FG with 3 seconds on the clock.
I further predict my wife will shun the raving lunatic in her house until Sunday.
