The Missouri Tigers will play for the National Championship

Now that the other Tigers are out of the way thanks to Arkansas, the Missouri Tigers are on their way to New Orleans. Missouri's seventh best passing offense in the nation should be able to outscore, outmatch and outplay KU's 16th rated offense. Although Kansas does run the ball better than Missouri, I think this match is going to be an all out ariel attack. Chase Daniel's 69.3% completion percentage is relatively comperable to Todd Reesing's 63.3% and touchdowns are the same at 30 apiece. Daniel does have 5 more interceptions thrown though but Kansas hasen't really played anyone as good as Missouri. Look for Jeremy Maclin who has the third-best all-purpose average in the country in the past five years to step up again. This guy is the man and if Daniel steps up he could be the front runner for the Heismann trophey after Saturday night too. If people are saying Tim Tebow after Saturday, I will be very suprised. Besides, no sophmore has EVER won the trophey anyway. Look for this matchup to be a high scoring, exciting affair full or drama and suspense. These teams and schools hate eachother and I for one cannot wait to watch this. Prediction: Mizzou 48 Kansas 36.
