How was Mizzou ranked #3????

southpaw74 · 02-21-12, 09:10 PM

You need to watch them more than 1 game. Kstate is kryptonite to them. They are good and have potential to go deep.

shaq diesel 75 · 02-21-12, 09:10 PM

Kansas gonna light em up Saturday, Mizzou has no size and has been getting favorable officiating all season. Gonna come crashing down hard come tourney time.

you are probably right. I just know K-state is not very good and all i saw was brick city tonight from the 3 point land.

The Bet Master · 02-21-12, 09:15 PM

KState is just a bad matchup for them. They should go deep in the tourney, but won't win it all.

SASH · 02-21-12, 09:16 PM

kstate is a very tough, very good basketball TEAM, i love how everyone always bags on them and how the books give them no respect. Ive made LARGE money betting on this team this year

Big Bear · 02-21-12, 09:17 PM

who will win it all?

HoulihansTX · 02-21-12, 09:18 PM

Its a bad matchup. They will get blown out in Lawrence too. Lack of size, and depth does this team in.

Is that a Baylor bear in your avatar? Then you know damn well why they are ranked third awesome team that can hang with awesome talent

o snap. I don't know what kind of Bear is in my avatar but i aint no baylor fan. my name is big bear and i needed an avatar.

FYI the reason my name is big bear is b/c my dog's name is bear and i was just trying to come up with a name.

jjesco425 · 02-21-12, 09:32 PM

hmmm 3 losses 2 to k-state 1 to oklahoma st both conference play were it is easier to lose but win against kan must mean kansas sucks too... how bout baylor they suck and texas beat them twice all slugs on there win list....im not impressed REALY... so u probably bet em and they lost(foolish bet btw) deff means they are crap and lets write em off

Big Bear · 02-21-12, 09:36 PM

guys settle down. lots of hostility in here. My point is Mizzou is overrated.

#3 ranked teams in the country dont lose at home by 10 to unranked teams.

yisman · 02-21-12, 09:37 PM

On the basis of their season up until this point.

Sure they do. It's happened before and it'll happen again.

Nuggets77 · 02-21-12, 09:40 PM

Number one team in the land isn't lookin' too sharp tonight either...

convick · 02-21-12, 09:40 PM

Rankings are worthless. Not sure why anyone who gambles would take them seriously.

a lot of teams far better than other teams that are ranked cant play every team and k state can prob beat every team that is ranked....some mid majors are ranked dont get me wrong they are quality teams but comp isnt same caliber... dont get caught up in records

letsgo · 02-21-12, 10:04 PM

Can't wait for the "How Can Kentucky lose to Miss. State" thread that is sure to pop up.

MJT1212 · 02-21-12, 10:06 PM

same way Kentucky was number 1, they both sukk fukkin dick and i bet on them and they dont even win SU............

jjesco425 · 02-21-12, 10:08 PM

kentucky was ripe to lose tonight still may win but doubtfull cover

Louisvillekid1 · 02-21-12, 10:09 PM

legit #3

Barnes & Whine · 02-21-12, 11:46 PM

Mizzou are legit enough right now through the regular season. However, they will get knocked out early in the Dance as usual, and I will bet against them until they get knocked out. They'll be lucky to get to the sweet 16 with their rebounding and relying on 3 point shooting too much.

Refs got them 25 wins folks. So many idiots on these boards.

EaglesPhan36 · 02-22-12, 12:59 AM

Sounds like you don't watch much of the Big 12 if you think Mizzou isn't good and K-State is bad. K-State has beat Baylor and Mizzou back to back on the road and almost swept both of them - did sweep Mizzou. Mizzou is a jump shooting club, if you have good perimeter defense you can beat them. Problem is not many teams in the country have been able to match-up. But if they're cold like any jump shooting team, they are beatable any day of the week.

Mizzou is your prototypical boom or bust team in the tournament IMO. If they hit their shots - they could be in the Final Four. If they get D'ed up, they could lose on the opening weekend.

finally someone knows what they're talking about. also to the op if you still think 1 game can tell you how good a team is then you are the reason casinos are open my friend

PickWinnerAllDay · 02-22-12, 01:05 AM

Anyone can win or make a deep run.

You really think the difference between elite and garbage in college basketball is that much?

For instance, Illinois was beating Missouri with a couple minutes left before they blew it. Now Illinois is losing by 20+ to Nebraska while Missouri lines up for a 1 or 2 seed.

Did I read this wrong or am I just confused?
I thought Texas LOST twice to Baylor not the other way around?

Big Bear · 02-22-12, 01:41 AM

winning against baylor doesnt mean much, baylor was also extremely overrated

drfunkmaster · 02-22-12, 03:08 AM

any given day a shitty team can beat a good team.. and vice versa.. Its sports!!!

SASH · 02-22-12, 03:40 AM

^^if you think kstate is a "shitty" team you dont get college hoops

KKoz9 · 02-22-12, 06:17 PM

Missouri is ranked right where they should be, they are a very good team that for some reason plays poorly against K-State (who shot 53%/66% I might add).

They have a dozen or more quality wins and will likely make it to final 8.
