Seriously Mizzou?

[Tharvot]

It's a home and home and not neutral stadium, so it's a quality game.

SEC teams love the neutral site game...especially if the "neutral site" is within their own state or at least their conference's footprint.

Maybe you haven't noticed all the Conference Realignment that happened in the past few years. Its almost impossible to get anybody on the schedule. Power 5 schools are pretty much all full for the next couple of years. A couple of conferences are going to only 3 Non Con games and 9 conference games.

Mizzou has ZERO non con games for 2016 right now. Mizzou still needs a non con in 2015. Right now we are playing SEMO, Arkansas St and UCONN.

Killer sched.

I'll give ya credit for at least going out of state. Lawd knows Florida never does.

LSU doesn't fit that mold.

Missouri announces games against UConn in '15, '17

wtf is this playing at cupcake stadiums?

Beats playing at Toledo so babysteps. If they don't pick up their standards soon though then they are out we just can't have this type of embarrassment in the conference.

But they won the East last year?

UConn is definitely a better program than Syracuse.

Glad the women's basketball team isnt playing either one.

Don't hate on us for having high standards.

It's pretty moldy down there...you can smell it.

Hell yeah, and every school in the country would take them - if they were available to them. The benefits are huge.

Oh wait, let me guess - you think a neutral site somehow provides a competitive advantage?

Yes it does, just ask Barry Switzer. He always said Dallas was still in Texas...

Ok, so what is the advantage?

UConn is fine.
Missouri has never been known for cowardly OOC games.
They don't have a bad rep for playing ridiculous weaklings....

Missouri schedules teams that are comparable to them.
They get programs that are sort of all over the place just like Mizzou.
A (5-7) season is just as likely as (10-2) for Mizzou historically so they schedule similar teams.


It is not horrible. They don't play directional schools and FCS exclusively.
They usually schedule middle tier big conference schools and play fair home/home series.
They play schools like UConn, Arizona State, Indiana, Illinois, Ole Miss. etc.....


UConn is totally acceptable for Missouri because you can never tell if you are getting 2012 or 2013 Missouri.

You don't have to travel to the other team's place.

Was Auburn on probation when they lost to Syracuse and North Carolina in the same season?

 

[tech_iceman]

is UConn better than Indiana?
