The University of Missouri moved atop the Bowl Championship Series standings and West Virginia University now holds the No. 2 spot in the rankings that decide which schools play for college football's national title. Missouri (11-1) jumped three spots after beating previously undefeated, arch rival and second-ranked Kansas 36-28 two days ago. That win came one day after Louisiana State, which was No. 1 in the BCS last week, lost to Arkansas 50-48 in triple overtime. Missouri, which has never won a national title, would gain a spot in the BCS Championship Game if it beats No. 9 Oklahoma for the Big 12 Conference title on Dec. 1. Oklahoma (9-2) gave Missouri its only loss this season, winning 41-31 on Oct. 13. GO TIGERS!!!!! M-I-Z...Z-O-U!! Sorry, just needed to get that out. Sara

Good luck to the Tigers tomorrow night. I was in K.C. over Thanksgiving and it was great to see all the excitement for the MU/KU game.

It is cool to see some universities with diversity in name from the usual suspects atop the BCS rankings and polls. I hope Mizzou does beat Oklahoma get a shot at the National Championship. I only wish one of the other diverse university names was Michigan State... ugh. The epitomy of underachieving. Cry

I was going to comment on liking your new avatar, Sara. Wink

As hard as it is for a Cyclone fan to root for the Tigers, I am cheering for the Tigers to beat the Sooners and go on to beat the Mountaineers in the National Championship game. I for one am sick of the Buckeye fans who think it is a right of entitlement to go to the National Championship every year and that somehow anyone else going is some sort of usurper. Good Luck to Missouri. Cool
