If anyone asks, I had a nice walk and my weiner is nice n trim.

Suck a dick, EMAW ****s.

That man's balls are in his stomach right now.

I hate the Little Apples. Great win.

You're just being obtuse at this point.

The screen clearly indicated there was a flag when there wasn't. This isn't you saying "typical Mizzou Fan", it's ESPN ****ing up.

And if you say Mizzou Fans are the worst, you haven't been to many other away games.

I told you he'd be fine through at least 2024.

You ignored my question. Weren't you Kim Anderson's biggest fan?

61 yards? Hot **** I was ready to troll the shit out of y’all, too.

23-35, 356, 2, 0

Perhaps the coaches who see the players every single day know more than rerun Mizzou Fan.

Perhaps anyone with a pair of eyes can see the screen said there was a flag.

No, and I have no idea why you would care about that right now. It's football season and Mizzou WON! **** Yeah! Celebrate, you miserable asshole! It's a great day!

Brady Cook looked like an actually good QB. If he can keep doing that then keep on keeping on dude.

And this is about how I'd respond if I'd been calling for a blowout and 'easy money in Vegas' all week.

Yeah - YOU'RE the guy to be taking a victory lap right now.

ROFL sounded like one of those over the air local only brodcasters

If we were basing it off barely scraping 6-6, I think it was iffy. It's still a long year but as of today, he's safe.

It's also ****ing hilarious how many people here are rejoicing after calling for Drink's head all off-season. LMAO

There are a few of you here who didn't.

I don’t care for Drink but if you read back to last week I said that I wanted Mizzou to beat K State when others wanted to lose and tank.

Delay of game to start a drive with less than five minutes left and another with six seconds left to push your kicker five yards beyond his all-time long is incredibly stupid. There isn't an argument against it. The frustrating part is the team is obviously talented, but makes so many mental errors because they're undisciplined. That's where the disappointment/anger comes from.

That's why the most successful coaches are pointing out mistakes that will get them beaten, even in wins.

Mizzou has a legit chance at starting 5-0.

Win 3 SEC games at home (Tennessee, SC, and Florida), that brings Mizzou to 8 wins.

I see positive posts and also some that are still cautiously optimistic after winning a lucky cluster**** ending. Not sure why you're whining about it. Have you never read a Chiefs game thread? If KC won like this people would be acting much more childish than this

Wtf is the matter with many of you?? I lurked in this thread off and on today because I wasn't about to get in the middle of the insanity. This team put up 30 points and beat the 15th ranked team in the nation, and some of you bitched the entire game like it was a blowout. I don't get it. You've already made up your mind about Coach Drink and Brady Cook so you are just determined to be miserable until they're gone. Nevermind that Cook put up 356 yards passing and 2 rushing TD,s with a 10.2 ypa along with a rushing TD. SMH. A mod should kick you out of the thread so that the rest of us can enjoy talking about the game.

We won the ****ing game, of course we’re rejoicing lol…

All I wanted today was a win and didn’t care how…we got it…time to build on this.

I didn't think it was luck, though. Mizzou was the better team today.

I will say, for a supposed offensive guru, it's pretty wild how little talent Mizzou has on O.

It's mostly an OL issue and injuries didn't help that.

We will always be waiting for the rubberband effect. It always comes.

Poor Cook really wasn't getting much consistent help today outside of Burden.

So... how did Vegas get this right?

K State also made a ton of unforced errors. Pretty even game

Stinnett pulled a Toney and they had several stupid presnap penalties as well

Who said the KSU coach was moving on and the locker room was pissed? There might be something to that.

I'm sorry, but Schrader and Peat are not SEC caliber RBs.

WRs outside of Burden might be OK, but OL is tire fire.

Defense is stacked.

I've given Brady Cook all kinds of credit today, but God forbid everyone isn't sucking his dick because he finally had a good game after looking like ass for the ~15 games before that. He played his ass off today though. Drinkwitz looked like he was actively trying to make them lose.

It was me. Id seen a rumor on Twitter a few days ago.

I think with them and Cook being a decent runner, the rushing game would be enough to be competitive if the blocking wasn't randomly a total across the stateline abortion.

When the line gets bad they are ****ed unless Barry Sanders is carrying the ball.

And thats the one caveat I have always given Cook.

Cook hasn’t been ass the majority of the time he’s played.

He’s just average.

LMAO

Vegas, typically, doesn't get it THAT wrong. They didn't get it "right" here, but they didn't miss by much.

Competitive is a strong word.

Acceptable might be better phrasing.

I think Mizzou could be a 9 win team with Cook if OL and supporting cast was better.

You didn't watch the ending? WHY?

The line was pretty spot on. People are forgetting how full reerun KState went on a few drives

Great win Mizzou fans. You have a sec fg record too.

Gladly still ****ing that chicken. Did we all watch the same game? Drinkwitz is a ****ing idiot and there are plenty of other guys who can be a players coach and take advantage of incredibly favorable NIL terms for 5* in state kids.

Cook is really a gadgety QB that's more efficient if he can also move the chains with his legs. Not going to be enough to get to Atlanta, but wins can be had yes.

Seen a lot of stretches where the blocking is totally blown up on those attempts.

It's remarkable how wrong Pitt Gorilla is. LMAO

I caught the last 5 minutes. Walk ended early because 10 day old kid got hungry.

Was a good watch.

Holy shit. That would've been just as big a gaffe as the delay of game was.

Perfect. I'm glad to be wrong. I'll celebrate beating the #15 team either way! LET'S GOOOOO!

Nice

So you've come around on Cook?

Drink is 40. He still has a lot of learning to do and improvement, but he's shown signs of growth and change.

He's not perfect, but I think he's shown he isn't totally stubborn.

Just to be clear, you wanted Mizzou to LOSE, correct?

To prove a point about how shitty Drinkwitz is, yeah. If the high end talent brought in by the NIL terms being ridiculously favorable for in state kids still pull out the victory while Drinkwitz still proves the point, even better.

I think I have been mostly fair about the situation. He's still a lesser QB in the SEC, but you can still win if he can use his legs to help move the chains and get the ball to Burden.

What is there to learn? The first delay of game was inexcusable. To do it AGAIN when it pushes your kicker 5 yards back while we're currently set up at his career long for a game winning field goal is incomprehensible incompetence.

What QBs in the SEC would you take over Cook right now?

I’ll conceit the following as of now:
Rattler
Rogers (though he’s been ass so far this season)
Dart
Leary
Daniels
Jefferson

Are you hoping Mizzou loses ALL of their games?

This is why I wanted Drink to take deep shots for Burden last season, even with Cooks limitations he can still get lucky on some down field throws.

I know we have done this once already. Ask me again in a few more weeks and I'll be glad to do this again as a mid-season review!

Yeah, this is as succinct and accurate a breakdown as you can have.

The WRs are good enough. This is close to the DGB-Lucas-Hunter-Sasser crew, at least in terms of raw talent.

The RBs and OL is rough. TE is largely not. Factor in the offense so it's hard to say there. QB is not the weakest link in this offense.

I'll take a bunch of games like this, I guess. He can stumble around the sideline drunkenly while coasting on the high end talent the boosters are buying.

How much of that is on Drink vs the players vs position coaches?

Shit happens.

I mean, when it's that level of incompetence it's ALL of them. And Drinkwitz is the head coach so..... kind of starts and stops at him, yeah?

I missed the start of the game. Did the crowd boo Brady at the start? Drinkwitz is really pissed off.

Drink pretty spicy at the podium. ��

Told you ****ers...

You'd think he was talking about Mahomes the way he stans for his QB.

I am shocked.

Meh. Cook actually earned some stanning today.

"WHY DOESNT DRINK EVER GO FOR IT!?!?"

This is why context matters fellas. Don't get those 3 points when you'd been completely stonewalled on the first three plays and that 61 yard boot doesn't win it for you.

But NOBODY will say anything about this decision and how it was proven correct. Meanwhile they'd have barbecued him for 'being a pussy' had they lost.

It was the right choice.

It's odd but man give him some time before booing him LMAO

I am happy they won....but I also saw many mental errors and bad plays to make me worry that against a really good team (read LSU, Georgia) MU is going to get their big time butt whipping.

If you look at this game MU should have led 24-14 at the half....the goal line series where K-State got 2 major penalties that pushed them back and negated TD's only to let the score a TD.....the way the offense started the 2nd half.....and the silly Delay of Game penalty at the end that could have jeopardized the FG.

I'm happy they won....but I'm not going to be a Pollyanna about it.

This is the correct take.

That would’ve been the most Mizzou thing ever for K-State

That same exact decision-making is how they lost to Auburn last year, though.

Sorry, unless there's no alternative to win, I don't trust kickers.

Which game are we talking about?

I wasn't on here much early in the game. Did he get criticized for fourth down decisions? He was unnecessarily conservative last week against a team with a massive talent discrepancy and it almost cost them the game.

He was afraid to push the envelope against Georgia and it cost them last year.

They went for it on 4th and 2 and scored a TD. Had they settled for a FG there, they lose. They settled for a long FG on 4th and 7ish in the first half and Mevis missed. If they convert there the outcome of the game is also different.

This strikes me as akin to arguing about going for two after the conversion was unsuccessful.

Somehow ended up right in front of all the recruits for this one. I definitely booed Brady Cook with everyone else. Don’t feel bad about it in the slightest. I also pointed out that Drink was coaching the last possession like a 3 year old playing Madden and I saw a lot of the recruits laugh and agree. We won that game, but better management would have put us in a better shot to not just pray for a miracle kick. Great game, though. Was a perfect day for football!

That kick was incredible though

Oh hell yea

Sometimes it's the wrong choice, yes.

But you can't be dogmatic about it. When everyone was blasting him for it, did they not see how little push we got on the first three plays? Going for it it just leaving three points on the field in a 7 point game with 10 minutes left.

In THAT spot, you take the field goal. But many were just being mindlessly dogmatic and saying he's a pussy for not going for it - I believe you did as well.

You have to watch what's actually happening and what was happening was the OL simply wasn't standing up in small areas. So you take the FG, get a stop and get back into big areas of the field where K-State has a harder time stacking the box and attacking as they were doing successfully in the small areas like the gold zone.

He made the right choice given what was happening on the field. But everyone else wanted to argue about the ideal outcomes in a game where 'ideal' wasn't on the table given the performance of the OL.

Wow probably lost us a few recruits ROFL

Enjoy your Saturday!

Yes he was.

And when he went for it on 4th and 2, he had a healthy QB that could (and did) take it himself. And they'd driven the ball forward a little on 2nd down. They werent on their heels like they were on that drive in the 4th facing 4th and 7.

There were silly mindless penalties that fall on preparation and he deserves heat for that. But everything else from a game management perspective was well handled. This "we should've been leading 24-14" shit is nonsense. Cook was hurt and I still see no reason to assume Horn was gonna come in cold and lead a TD drive. So they worked the clock and kept K-State from getting a drive to end the half. That's proper game management based on the situation rather than the mindless dogmatic nonsense being thrown around in this thread.

Eli coached a good game. Are his players as disciplined as they should be? No, I dont think so and again he has to wear that. But was he taken shots downfield? Yeah - a bunch of them. Did he adjust his offensive gameplan on the fly and get it lined out by the 4th quarter when his QB couldn't do what he had hoped for coming into the game because of injury? Yeah, he absolutely did. Did he handle the short yardage go/no go decisions well? Absolutely.

And yet you're still in here saying he coached a bad game. That's asinine.
