Random thoughts:

1) Never thought the day would come where I feel so much built up frustration about Missouri football. Missouri! But, here it is. We really need to kick *ss this week.

2) Little things lead to big things. A strong first half against the Rebels. A strong showing against Maine. Let’s keep building on this.

3) We have a true freshman get snaps at OL against Maine and his first snap he draws a flag for being a little too fiery. And our entire fan base eats it up. A collective recognition of positivity. Love it. Let’s get more of that fire in these next three games.

4) Everything matters. So many freshmen playing late against Maine. Confidence builder for all. And a TD for Helms gets OC choked up. Good stuff all around. And it all matters.

5) Kevin Johns. I want to hear more about this guy. Both our QBs looked sharp yesterday. What’s he telling them?

6) Running game. If we can keep this up… Fill in the blank. Thoughts on the running game against Missouri?

7) I buried the lead. Sorry. I’ve been hearing the misuse of “verse” a lot lately. Kind of bugging me so I have to vent. A simple search reveals:

Verse
A noun that refers to a part of a poem, song, or chapter of the Bible or the Koran. It can also refer to writing arranged in lines that have rhythm and often rhyme. For example, "Due to her writer's block, the poet could only complete a few verses each day".

and

Versus
A preposition that means "against" or "in contrast to or as the alternative of". It is often used in legal and athletic contexts. For example, "The next soccer match is Mexico versus the United States".

Okay, it’s on to Missouri. Sooners versus Tigers. Our chance to return them to their normal and rightful state of mediocrity. You know, that from which we last saw them the last time we played. We need to do so with authority for old times sake. I really want to see us hit on all cylinders. Possible? What’s the betting line? Let’s gooooo!
