MIZ-SLU

I am not a troll. Think what you will, but I will continue to profess my fandom for the Billikens.  My friends in Columbia make fun of me because I am always paying attention to the Billikens.  Being that I have just started posting I understand that many of you will question my loyalty to the Bills, but, hopefully over time you will realize that I am not trolling, but rather just trying to talk some Billiken basketball like everyone else.

If Billikan is optimistic, you know the billikens are having a good year. Oh wait?

I'm on cloud nine right now but I really want the biils to win these next two and enter our easy December schedule undefeated.

Me too. How awesome would it be to go into New Mexico undefeated? I think that game is much more winnable seeing them play yesterday.  Man can you imagine us going into Dayton unblemished. That would be too sweet.

But, for real, I would rather talk some Billiken basketball. I have a Mizzou board for Tiger Basketball. This is the most excited I have ever been about a Billiken team maybe ever! Who does everyone want to draw Sunday? I say Oklahoma so we can go for another scalp. Then we would just be missing the SEC for a full house.

_{UMC has been alright I guess. Not a fan. The pressure full court defense works non-conference against teams not used to seeing it, but conference games are the test. Are they still using the press in Columbia?}

Not really. Haith has brought a high pressure, half-court defense to Columbia with him. It has worked better so far.

Will the nice start equal a nice attendance for UMC at the Paige? Prob not, its deer season.

No arguments there. Fans only show up for conference play. No one wants to go watch the Tigers play opponents like SEMO, Binghampton and Mercer. They had a nice turnout at the Sprint Center this week though.
