Here is the short and sweet of it, this TEAM GAME, comes down to 2 main things. One of our big's stepping up, and at least one of our smalls hitting the long ball. So many people have given up on this Mizzou game before it even starts. You all have to remember the KU game in the Phog, KU pulled away yet several times KSU went on a run and got the game within reach, before getting tired.
Frank Haith and his offense have a problem handling pressure D, and huge problems in a full court pressure D if at least one of the bigs is back to defend. There is a reason the Cat's won by such a large margin, they won because, of the defense. Mizzou is going to try and move the ball a lot faster than in did in Manhattan because that is what a Haith offense does. A Martin defense can handle that, KState likes an up tempo game, they love to cause turnovers... In Missouri if you turn the ball over, you are in trouble, as teams will score on them!
That being said, I think the home field advantage will cause KSU to miss some gimme's and Mizzou most likely win's this game by 4 or more. This being my take on the game this evening
