When is the Tiger on Tiger violence gonna end?

The Missouri Tigers ended a 2-game skid, finally notching their first win of 2014 against the No. 16 LSU Tigers.

Despite the win, Coach Mustard was in his typical grouchy mood after the game, and used the post-game press conference to complain about his team's schedule.

"I mean, come on man," Mustard said, shaking a piece of paper at reporters. "I know this schedule was partly our own fault, but this is stupid.

"Week 1 -- Nebraska. Defending national champs and No. 2 in the country. Week 2 -- Virginia Tech, No. 6 in the country, and would be higher if they hadn't dropped their first game. Week 3 -- LSU, No. 16. Week 4 -- Alabama, No. 1 in the country.

"Our first non-ranked game isn't until week 5, and that's against the same freaking team that beat us in a bowl game last year," Mustard continued. "Then we get a nice little break against Vanderbilt, but OH WAIT, it's a road game.

"So, Week 7. Week 7's gotta be when the schedule gets easy, right? AT NO. 21 GEORGIA. Week 8: No. 24 Auburn. Week 9? A nice cozy home game against South freaking Carolina.

"I need a drink," Mustard said, walking out of the room.
