A season that began with national championship dreams for Missouri and Heisman hopes for quarterback Chase Daniel ends in San Antonio against Northwestern, one of the Big Ten's surprise teams. Daniel and standout wideout Jeremy Maclin face a much-improved Northwestern defense led by end Corey Wootton. Missouri makes its first appearance in the Alamo Bowl, while Northwestern heads back for the first time since 2000. --
I'm happy with that. Top-25 finish, 9-3 Overall, 5-3 in the Big-Ten, 2 out of the three losses were to Ranked teams, one of which is #4 in the country.
And we get to play Missouri, somewhat of a darling, and the victory could define our current program in a real powerful way.
Looking forward to it
