Happy Thursday, Tiger fans!

On Saturday our beloved Tigers host an old foe from conferences gone by — the Wildcats of Kansas State University. Kickoff is scheduled for the awful time of 11:00 a.m. The parking lots open at 7:00, so come on out anytime you like, I’ll be there.

Because of the awful 11:00 a.m. kickoff time, and everyone’s habit of arriving at about 10:15 for those games, planned tailgate food will be minimal. We’ll have some coffee, makings for screwdrivers and bloodies, the normal variety of other drinks, and some donuts or something similar. Bring anything you’d like to add to that mix.

Mizzou and K-State have been playing since the old Missouri Valley Conference Days, thru the Big 6, Big 7, Big 8, and the disastrous Big 12 conference. In all that time, they’ve still not managed to find anything but a head for their stupid mascot. We conveniently played a team that was dressed like them last week, in a visualization game matchup, so look for a similar outcome this week — 27-20 Tigers, I say, as the Tigers improve to 3-0 on the season, just as everyone that sits near me at the games has clearly and loudly believed all along.

I went with a friend to the game at K-State last year. I immediately stepped in a puddle getting out of his truck, it rained most of the game, there were two lightning delays, the game was awful, and we had a low tire issue on the way home. It sucked. Speaking of things that suck, screw ku.
