STL FANATIC Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 This is the biggest game in St. Louis, and the quickest sellout, and I'm goin! This is gonna be great. It's always a great game, and usually (lately anyway) Illinois ends up on top. Go Illini!I-L-L !I-N-I !

yh Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 I'm jealous. This will mark my 23rd consecutive Busch Braggin' Rights game without a ticket. This is going to be a very intriguing contest - we'll see if the real Mizzou basketball team finally shows up for 40 minutes tonight.M--I--Z !!!Z--O--U !!!

This is going to be a very intriguing contest - we'll see if the real Mizzou basketball team finally shows up for 40 minutes tonight.This is my second Braggin' Rights game I've been to, but not in a row. Mizzou has bee sloppy all year. The only things that were able to stop the Illini this year were an evenly matched UNC team and an underrated Providence team on the road who plays an incredible zone defense. I don't think Mizzou plays a lot of zone, so I don't think they can shut down the Illini offense.M--I--Z !!!Z--O--U !!! What a ripoff... :: JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yh Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 I am embarassed for the Mizzou basketball program that this team is so arrogant and lackadasical as to basically slough off the entire first half and then think that all they need to do is play strong in the last 10 minutes of a game in order to take care of business, especially against a quality opponent like Illinois. Granted, the Illini are somewhat accountable for blowing a 21 point lead, but still, I haven't seen the Tigers play a complete game yet and this reflects a poor mindset, horrible work ethic and disrespect for the opponent. The talent and potential on the Tiger team has been superior to each of their opponents to date, however not once have they succeeded in fufilling that potential, even in their victories, none of which has been by more than 9 points. Again, this is no disrespect to Illinois and their coach - one of the all-time good guys in college hoops, just a frustrated complaint about a team that should be playing better than they have at any point in this season.

KCScout76 Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 KU got bitch slapped by NEVADA.KU is a good team but not a top 10 yet - and they could not hit a bull in the butt with a bass-fiddle that night.

STL FANATIC Posted December 28, 2003 Author Share Posted December 28, 2003 One thing to note about that game for the Illini was that they had their best player (this year), Deron Williams, out with a broken jaw.As for Mizzou, the troubles continue as they fell behind big and early again today to end up losing by 2, 61-59, to unranked Memphis.
