MIZZOU Mike Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Admission requirements might be relatively the samethank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I hear ya and you're right, you rarely engage them. Cheesy is a pretty fair guy, but is pretty thinned skin when it comes to missouri. I'm not sure why he expects posters on a SLU message board to be more delicate towards Missouri. Also, sometimes, it's like he comes here hoping to defend missouri to SLU posters in order to point out some perceived superiority of missouri over slu. This Mike guy is just a moron. I'm guessing a 2nd cousin to basketballcountry. Mike's probably considered the "bright" one in the family. How sad is that? Congratulations for pointing out that we're talking about TWO Mizzou posters. I make three. You guys act like Mizzou has descended en masse on the SLU board and wronged your university. One poster " cheeseycow" is somewhat respected or at least tolerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesycow Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The average ACT score of students coming into slu is a 27 Average gpa coming out of high school is a 3.67. Admission requirements might be relatively the same, but let's be honest. Mizzou is a party school. SLU is a school of academics. Might want to check out Mizzou's stats on those fronts before you start assuming they're much different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billiken_roy Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I agree that this is total crap, but our advance ticket sales for the NIT and conference game, had we played one, were very low. Many season ticketholders did not commit to purchasing tickets when given the option. Many of us would have looked forward to the game, and maybe the press would have helped sell some tickets, but we haven't sold out a home game in 2 years. I'm pretty sure this wasn't going to be anywhere near a sell-out, unless we had played an Illinois or like opponent. Win a game, and then the attendance may have improved. Oh well, all bs guessing on my part, because these scumbags hosed the team. i suspected as much when i got my seats upgraded to premium center court.

billiken_roy Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 these tiger fans here tonite are represenative of what we have have to listen to for years and imo very represenative of the typical tiger fan. they are the reason i have always hated missouri.

Pick and Roll Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 ok tell me. What makes it more difficult to get accepted to SLU over Mizzou (other than $$$$$)? Mizzou v. SLU academics Pretty objective. Mizzou's acceptance rate is 85.1% and SLU's acceptance rate is 72.4%. Mizzou's has 30K+ and SLU has 12K+. Pretty simple math, even for a suspected, Mizzou-educated fool like yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXBilliken07 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I'm glad I was on an airplane during the selection show because I would have thrown large objects at my TV. Unreal....what a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They score difference is negligible and obviously a public school is going to let in more students than a private school. Identical ACT averages and GPAs. The academic thing is a marginal argument, which roy always boils down to class sizes because he thinks I sat 500 feet away from my professor in all my classes (hint: i didn't). They're both great schools and we're lucky to have them both for students in the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SluSignGuy Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I like that when you google NIT Selection Show, this thread is now the third result... NIT Selection show was the 14th most searched term on Google tonight... And I think Billikens.com paid for that. ..Sorry, I find this sort of interesting...what else you going to do while refreshing the CBI web site.

cheesycow Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Reserve the Kiddie Hoops at Tillman for me. Steve, I'm not sure you could even dunk on those.

Pick and Roll Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 the acceptance rate (if accurate) are fairly close. I have no idea what you are talking about regarding "mizzou's has 30K+ and SLU has 12K+"? Number of enrolled students. I thought it was implied. What did you think it was - starting salaries after graduation? Acceptance rates are a little close but I wouldn't hang my hat on stating the two schools are equivalent. There is also a 1.5 ACT point differential which I would say is a little close but significantly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a 1.5 ACT point differential which I would say is a little close but significantly different. They're almost identical. SLU has smaller class sizes and costs more, Mizzou has bigger class sizes and costs less, but other than that they are statistically next to identical.

billiken_roy Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 that's the point mike and cheese. if i wanted to be a jerk i would go to those boards and talk. but i have never done that and few billiken fans every have. yet we get you guys here even on a night one would think you would be celebrating the tiger moment here being total a.s.ses. look in the mirror. see how you obviously appear. whether you think you are or not, you are the face of the tigerfandom on this board. you think you might be clever or enlightening, but you are not. no one here wants to read it. get a clue.
