Missouri can't hit the broad side of a barn, particularly from downtown, after hitting nearly 60% of all shots on Saturday. Wow, I don't believe it... :jimlad:

Maybe the team that Missouri is playing is providing a stiffer defense?
Not that big of a surprise given the situation - just got ranked, not much experience in the national spotlight, playing against a tough defense. That said, they could yet settle down in the 2nd half.Quote:

I might agree with you, if we were talking about the game we played in Missouri. But, most of the shots they were dropping on Saturday were highly contested. They're taking many of the same shots tonight, and they're not dropping. I would guess it's mainly because most of the guys shooting them have terrible form, and that sometimes they just get lucky...Quote:

That settles it. We're their SuperBowl. :wink:
We simply have a knack of making teams look good against us. Is anyone surprised?
No. Its what happens to bad teams. They make mediocre teams look like worldbeaters.Quote:

Hmm. Well, with Mizzou out of the equation, we are allowing 32-101 (31.7%) from 3-point land in conference play. Only kansas is better in the league. Try again...Quote:

If they shoot like they did against us in the rest of their games they'd be equal to or better than Oklahoma IMO.
Oops, now don't let facts get in the way of everyone's constant whining about our team...watch yourself...Quote:
