Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Missouri Tigers combines the great passion of the Tiger fan with the grand passion of the fan of Christ in one set of devotions. The result is a book that is fun while it provides a time of reflection about God and your faith. Missouri once used a tactic to win a football game that resulted in a change in the rules that is still in effect. MU's 1964 pitching staff was the greatest in the history of major college baseball. Dan Devine's first trip to Columbia was such a disaster he wondered if he would live to see his family again. Brad Smith's former youth coach threatened to come after a college coach with a shotgun if he ever mistreated Smith. An MU-Kansas basketball game erupted into a brawl so violent that blood splattered onto a reporter's jacket. These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Gary Pinkel, Norm Stewart, Chase Daniel, Henry Josey, James Franklin, and many others. Their stories along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events are told with a twist: They are all tied to God's story. Have fun! Have faith! Go Tigers! Go God!
