Just got this note: Mizzou fans are encouraged to send the basketball team off to Glendale on Tuesday at 1:45 pm. Meet on the South side of Mizzou Arena.

And I need to come up with 45 more words, so I just thought I'd repeat The Boy's intro from Ellis' title:

About 16 months ago, anybody who followed Mizzou Wrestling figured that heavyweight Mark Ellis was about to lose his starting role to incoming freshman Dom Bradley.  Now, he's a national champion.  Ellis won a crazy final match in OT over Duke's Konrad Dudziak, and he is Mizzou's second national wrestling champ.  Congrats to Mr. Ellis and congrats to Brian Smith for continuing to build a big-time national program.  Mizzou is alive and well in the post-Askren era.

A limited number of tickets adjacent to the Mizzou Sections for the Big 12 Championship game on Dec.6 at Arrowhead Stadium have been made available for public sale by the University of Missouri Ticket Office. These tickets are primarily in the upper-level, sideline sections.

Tickets will be offered online through mutigers.com while supplies last. They can also be purchased by calling 1-800-CAT-PAWS.
