knee injury. that was all

bad enough for him to come back out in his sweats


edit: apparently there's also some word that they lost their center in this game (pretty much the only guy not a replacement on the line) as well as one of their RBs...don't know which one yet though


edit: scratch that, they were apparently already playing the backup center due to injury, so with the injury tonight they now lost him as well

edit edit: His knee injury is apparently a strained MCL; he's at least out next week (not that it would have mattered)...there's some mixed word on whether he's out more than that; some say one week, some two weeks (meaning they're stuck without him for UK, uh oh), one "a few"

darn, I forgot my "No James Franklin! If you shake hands with James Franklin...then you'll never be born"

The Missouri/Kentucky game should be epic.

Now the official "is it basketball season yet?" game of the conference year

Unless Franklin of Mizzou can get back healthy and look like Cam Newton, UT will roll Mizzou. Their O-line is horrible. Their defensive line is pretty good, but they will beat Ky in the East and that is it. They'll finish 6th and Ky will finish 7th.

I wouldn't chalk Kentucky and Wake Forest as wins.

There are no gimmes for Vanderbilt. Except FCS teams. And even then...

Well both are on the road but Ky is atrocious and Wake is not that good. Ky lost their starting QB to a torn ligament in his ankle. I doubt he comes back this year. Wake has beaten UNC and Army, but lost to Maryland today. I think Candy will beat both along with UMASS.

If they can beat Auburn or Ole Miss then they'll go bowling. They have a better chance at beating Auburn at this point. Ole Miss can put up some points. Auburn couldn't score against Ark's horrible D.

Mizzou before the season talked about how they're gonna run through the SEC, They're now 0-3 after loosing to Vandy at home. Welcome to the SEC.

I'm guessing you mean the 1 player? The fans that have come here have been pretty much predicting middle of the road and fairly down to earth (well save to a guy who's a Kansas fan here)

On their main message board before the season started.

ok this is pretty funny meltdown (all one/same conversation) material:

And if you think Franklin is a pussy and Berk is the future, you watched a different game than I did.

Did you see him stand in the pocket and take shot after shot? Nobody was blocking on the left side it was the Route 66 expressway to the QB.

Route 66 was mostly a 2 lane road. I believe you mean I-70 or I-44
