Re: Mizzou Basketball 2011-2012
I had to watch the game on DVR. But in doing so, I watched it with my brother, which made it that much cooler... except he only DVR'ed the first two hours. It stopped with the Tigers up 72-71 and 50 seconds left. So I left his home, went back to my own, and watched my DVR'ed version since I'd recorded up to 3 hours. I saw the end of the game sometime around 2 am.
On one hand, I feel like I missed out watching it in real time. On the other hand, the goofy circuitous circumstances that I watched the game make it more memorable. That's one of the best Mizzou hoops wins of my lifetime. I don't even know what would top it, off the top of my head.

Good game. Sucks to lose but you can't really complain, as a KU fan, when you lose to a very good Mizzou team on the road by a single possession.
On a lighter note, I suppose going 25/13 against tough interior D on national TV all but locked up National Player of the Year for Robinson.

It was an awesome game, but I don't think anything is ever going to top the 1997 game with the shot by Corey Tate in double overtime.JL21 wrote:I had to watch the game on DVR.

Purely from a game standpoint, the Tate game's got it. But this one had all of the backstory- two top ten teams, the last time they'll be facing each other (indefinitely) in Columbia. For me, anyway, that stuff pushes it above Tate.

Re: Mizzou Basketball 2011-2012
That's fair. The two top ten teams thing doesn't do as much for me as a mediocre team knocking off an undefeated #1, but you've definitely got a point on the last time deal.JL21 wrote:Purely from a game standpoint, the Tate game's got it.

Did I see Tate Decker out there? That kid was an enigma.

So last summer I find out that my sister has decided that she likes modern, radio friendly Nashville country music. So naturally I asked why she had given up on life and she said that she had grown weary of Dave Mathews and needed something new.Jocephus wrote:i enjoyed the game purely for the facebook posts from my ku friends. i swear they are the equivalent of dave matthews band fans.

way too early but ... prefer a one seed elsewhere or a two in St Lou? Would they do that?
