KU-Missouri pregame

Jesse Newell

I haven’t changed my mind in the last day. 69-67 Missouri.

And I thought the Taylor prank was pretty funny. Some things the Antlers have done in the past have been in poor taste. No harm, no foul on the most recent Taylor prank, though.

You and Bob Knight are picking MU. I hope you are both wrong.

Keegan picked KU by 6, so take solace in that.

Also take solace that neither one of us have correctly picked a KU loss this year.

The chant has started. “M-I-Z …”, you know the rest.

Some MU fans have dressed up in KU jerseys in the student section. Most of them have bandages on their heads and black eyes. The fight references live on. Haven’t seen any Kurtis Townsend signs, though.

Are we gonna’ get Selby?

Jesse Newell

I’d say KU has as good of a chance as anyone. But if I was a KU fan, I’d enjoy the heck out of this year’s team instead of being too concerned about what might happen next year.

Looks like this one is setting up to be completely full. Most of the upper sections are filled, and most of the empty seats are in the lower alumni level. Those usually get filled in closer to gametime.

KU08

Are there any funny Kurtis Townsend signs? I’ve been looking forward to see how the Mizzou fans play that one.

Jesse Newell

KU08 — I haven’t seen any Townsend signs. In fact, I haven’t seen many signs at all. Just the normal “Chicken-Hawk” and stuff like that.

I know I could find this if I did a little searching, but what time is tipoff? The WVU-Nova game is going to go long. The score’s 45-46 with over 6 minutes to go.

What’s the actual tip time?

I had not heard of Samantha Ryan before the latest stories. What about you?

Jesse Newell

Guys — At 12:56 p.m., there is 7:15 left on the scoreboard clock. They usually start the game a couple minutes after that. I’d say it will start at 1:08 or so.

Have an online link? Justin? Espn360 is a miss, for some reason…

Jesse Newell

sandy — The game is on CBS, so it won’t be on ESPN360. I’d try justin.tv/sremlahc10, password: phog. If not, usually check the live game blog, as people try to post links in the comment section there.

many ku fans in the building?

Jesse Newell

Some spatterings of blue, but not much. Mostly gold here today.

All right, guys. Closing up the chat. Thanks to those who participated. Check out the live blog for analysis, polls, pictures and more.
