Yes yes, I understand the demo is simply a taste of what the game is. However, I do not understand why people are underwhelmed with this game. It seems like a fun kart game set in the LBP universe from short time I played it.
Can anyone explain this to me? I'm probably going to buy it just so that my 5yr old and I can enjoy another wonderful Sackboy game, but I really am quite curious to why everyone is disappointed. Thanks.

I personally don't have any negative things to say about it, Overall it's a great game that the whole family can enjoy. I guess for some people it's just not their cup of tea....
On the Surface Problems:
-Stickers don't apply to Sackboy worth crap. (Hopefully they'll fix, it's been a known problem since the Betas) Character customization as a whole doesn't live up to LBP or ModNation's standards.
-Single player racing against the AI is too luck-based, because
-Lack of ModNation's Drift Meter. Though, other than the Single Player, this is more of a taste preference than a flaw; if you like Mario Kart, you'll feel right at home here.
Under the Hood Problems:
-Many inconveniences with logic and material properties if you're coming from LBP2
-The game enjoys freezing periodically while creating.
Overall, though, it's a fine game, the positives outweigh the negatives, and it'd be a great game for a kid. And if you like Kart Racers, there'll be an endless supply of tracks online eventually. :3

For the most part, that all sounds like stuff that can be patched (not trying to excuse the issues). It just bothers be that a number of sites are giving it a low score simply because its not Mario Kart. The low score doesn't bother me, but the fact they say stuff like its repetitive and not fun is bizarre IMO.
(Not trying to start a Nintendo/Sony war btw)

^That is bizarre. I find it non-repetitive and very fun, and that Sticker issue was a bigger disappointment for me than it would be for normal people. XD (I love costume making in LBP)
Even if they never patch these issues, I'd still highly recommend this game for any Kart Race fan. The game's fun to play, and it has the best Track maker ever - you can even make your own weapons to go with your tracks.
"The best things in life must be taken... by force!"
~Captain Khan
LBPK's main issue is the absence of an active playerbase.
(This might change due to all the ads that we see all of a sudden.)
+ lack of a zoom function for Kart/Sack customization
+ freezing
..and it's still the best Kart Racer this generation.
By far.
=bRo= PSN: IPh1zt
100.1% TEAMwork. tRu story.
Honestly I had more fun with the new sonic racing and it was 30 bucks cheaper. For me it's all about the sense of speed.
This Generation isn't bad. you're just getting old.
This game is more about creation. If you want to just race.....its ok but if you want to create......it is amazing.
FORUMS: A place a person can ask a serious question & receive rude replies that have nothing to do with the question!
There is nothing wrong with the karting, that is quite fun.
The problems lie with the online. Playing with friends is a very disjointed affair, with players having to rejoin each other after each race and matchmaking sessions failing etc.. It gets very frustrating very quickly.
This game has been out for a month and a half and is still pretty new, of course it still has its problems here and there. Im pretty sure (Or atleast I hope) they'll fix more of these some issues in the future, like the freezing in creation mode, etc. So far its only had one patch, right? (Or maybe even two)
Im now downloading the game and have yet to play it. Im just going off on what I've seen people say. I played the demo, and its awesome.
I'll see in a few and see what's so "bad" about this game, other than that, it looks all pretty fun!

NASA SDO – Graceful Turbulence
March 28, 2014
Powerful magnetic forces above an active region spun and pulled at a blob of plasma until it lost its connections and blew out into space on March 26, 2014.
The resultant swirling presents its own kind of graceful, almost ballet-like bends and sweeps. To offer some kind of size perspective that blob before it breaks away was easily larger than several Earths.
The event was observed in extreme ultraviolet light over about 5.5 hours between 7:00 and 12:20 UT.

Increasingly, it seems, Rihanna's World Tour is more of a non-stop, round-the-world party than a concert series. In fact, RadarOnline.com has learned, her Nov. 1 concert in Barbados was indefinitely postponed last week, much to the disappointment of fans, but she'll still be in town, partying it up at a local nightclub.
Live Nation Global Touring blamed the switch-up on "technical difficulties associated with the transport of equipment" and assured fans that they would announce the new date later this year.
But that didn't stop the party train: On Wednesday, Rihanna's brother Rorrey Fenty posted a flyer to Instagram advertising his sister's upcoming appearance at the Sugar Ultra Lounge in Barbados on November 1, the same night her concert was supposed to take place.
Disappointed fans who prefer to hear her sing (or at least pretend to) rather than watch her party aired their concerns on Twitter:

The Springboks won their first away match in The Castle Lager Rugby Championship since 2009 and still occupy first position on the log, but they realise a lot of hard work lies ahead before they depart for Australasia next Saturday.
"I will never complain about a victory, but the truth is we were not good today," said Meyer after the match.
"It took a lot of guts and character to win here and for that I'm proud of the players. However, we all realise we will have to improve a lot if we're going to be competitive in Brisbane and Auckland.
"We always knew this was going to be a very tough match and that the Pumas were going to be a different opponent here than they were back in Soccer City. We learnt some very valuable lessons from this match.
"We will keep our feet on the ground and our heads down and continue to work hard in the next few weeks."
De Villiers said: "It was very tough out there. A year ago we drew this game but today we won. Although the performance was not up to the standards we set ourselves, we're happy with the four points we got here."
Morné Steyn, thanks to a flawless kicking display, scored 17 of the Springboks' points through five penalty goals and a conversion, while Bjorn Basson scored the visitors' only try.

Stoneybridge is a small town on the west coast of Ireland where all the families know one another. When Chicky Starr decides to take an old, decaying mansion set high on the cliffs overlooking the windswept Atlantic Ocean and turn it into a restful place for a holiday by the sea, everyone thinks she is crazy. Helped by Rigger (a bad boy turned good who is handy around the house) and Orla, her niece (a whiz at business), Chicky is finally ready to welcome the first… (plus)
While Binchy's stories are sketchier than usual, perhaps understandably rushed, her fans will find solace as hearts mend and relationships sort themselves out one last time.

Garmin Nuvi USB Power Cable Demystified
3BR Powersports Garmin Nuvi USB Power Cable
There's lots of confusion about powering the Garmin Nuvi GPS using a standard USB Cable so we thought we'd shed some light on the subject.
When a Garmin Nuvi is plugged into a USB Port with a standard USB cable, it is expecting data, i.e. it is looking for map updates or other data. It will charge slowly but not go into navigate mode. Yes, you can play some on/off button tricks to get it into charge mode but it still won't navigate.
The Garmin supplied cable that plugs into a cigarette lighter has a 5VDC regulator built in and some circuitry that causes the Nuvi to go into charge mode while navigating. This circuitry is similar to the USB OTG technology used on the old Motorola RAZR phones that allowed them to charge from a USB Port without getting the message, "Unauthorized Charger".
The secret is in the 5th pin of a USB Micro B connector. A standard USB A cable has 4 pins and 4 wires. The 5th pin on the Micro B connector is not connected to a wire and thus does not go back to the plug end (USB A). It connects with internal circuitry that powers up a signal that tells the processor that it's not in data mode.
With some Garmin secret sauce, lots of patience and skill with a magnifying glass, razor knife and soldering iron, a USB A to USB Micro B cable can be modified to charge the Nuvi.
However, there is a much easier way. 3BR Powersports has Garmin Nuvi Charging cables with the magic already molded in. They are available in convenient powersports vehicle lengths of 9", 12" and 18".
In addition, they are available with and without our Patented TAPP CAPP and PANEL CAPP for use with our TAPP Lite and PANEL TAPP USB power ports:
PANEL TAPP Weatherproof USB panel mount power port with PANEL CAPPed USB Cable
TAPP Lite weatherproof USB Power Port with TAPP CAPPED Garmin Nuvi Charging Cable and Garmin Nuvi GPS
Visit our web site http://www.3brpowersports.com/products_usb_cables.htm for more info and pricing.
Update on Garmin GPS Power Cable
We have been experimenting with the Garmin Oregon GPS to see how it reacts to being powered with the 3BR Powersports Nuvi Power Cable described above.
We are pleased to report that it powers up and navigates just fine which allows it to be used on long rides without having to worry about running out of battery power.
When the Oregon is plugged into a USB power port using this cable the "External Power" icon shows up on the main screen jsut above the satellite status icon (see below)
Needless to say, the batteries will not charge since there is no charging circuit inside the Oregon. Also, plugging a USB cable into the Oregon eliminates the weatherproofing. We made some mods that provide weatherproofing when the USB cable is plugged in. They can be found here:
It is important to remember that the 3BR Powersports Nuvi Power Cable is for power only and cannot be used for data transfer. The data lines are not connected internally.
[QUOTE=Shov3BR;15595207] plugging a USB cable into the Oregon eliminates the weatherproofing.
We found that this is not the case. The Oregon is waterproof even when the USB cable is plugged in. Very cool.
Free bump for a great product and excellent customer service. :clap
Thanks for the bump! Much appreciated.
I bought one from Pashnit for 21.95 plus $3 shipping, all US dollars (the little ones). The website is www.pashnitMoto.com.
When I bought it I expected to be billed a bit more for Canadian shipping, but they shipped it for the U.S. shipping amount. Took about ten days to turn up in my mailbox.:clap
That web site seriously needs a search window. Had to do an external Google search but eventually found 3br cables there and managed to order one.
Thanks again for the tip.
Your first complaint!
Here you are guys, your first gripe about your product.:eek1 Actually, it's not a gripe about the product, which is good, just it's functionality under what must be a fairly common condition. I have a Garmin Nuvi 550 mounted to my Strom in a RAM Nuvi bracket. It sits on the brake reservoir (so what). Attaching the power cable is no problem, it goes in easy and is very firmly in position. The problem is removing the power cable. The RAM mount, if you haven't seen one, has a raised flange on two sides of the USB port, top and inner side. This makes it impossible to get a grip on the mini USB fitting and it takes a lot of tugging, cussing, pulling, cussing, and yanking (and cussing) to get it to come loose. It took about two and a half months of use before the mini USB part started to get loose in the plastic fitting and lose the connection. (I figure it was all the cussing that did it in.:evil) RAM mount owners could use either a straight fitting or some kind of "grippy thingy" moulded or attached to the 90 degree mini USB fitting. I plan on buying another of your cables and coming up with my own mini-handle for the Nuvi cable.

To Scootz - we couldn't agree more. The Nuvi 550 Ram cradle is our second least favorite of the RAM cradles. That lip around the cable socket makes it next to impossible to get the cable out.
Have you tried to remove the 550 with the cable still installed? The top side of the lip is pretty close to the cable but it might clear.
This what we do with our least favorite cradle - the RAM Nuvi 1250. This sucker doesn't even have an opening at the bottom or side that allows the cable to be removed with the GPS. We modified the cradle by cutting a slot in the bottom and then glueing some ABS strips from the base channel to the back plate. Butt ugly but at least we can get the GPS out without removing the cable.
BTW- good idea with the pull tab. Maybe we could make a diecut piece that would go over the metal part of the plug and trail out over the rubber part. Hmmm... food for thought.
Hi there,
Just sent you a PM because I'm interested in purchasing a couple of your USB power cables...
Did you get them?
For now all I want is a USB cable to plug into a Garmin Nuvi 2350 that connects directly to the battery. Does this cable exist? The closest I've found so far is the Garmin USB power Cable 010-11131-10 but it says it's only compatible with the GTU-10. Does it not function with the Nuvi's?
Does anybody make such a cable? I would like to perminately install the cable and don't want to use a BMW power plug to 12v cig lighter adapter and then plug in the Garmin Auto/Cig. power cable, that's just nuts.
I will eventually buy a motorcycle specific GPS but not now, the Nuvi will have to do.
I've now submitted this question to Garmin Support also, hopefully they'll have an answer.
Click the image to go to the GPSCity site.
The only downside to that direct wired cable is the USB plug that goes into the Nuvi. They are notoriusly wimpy and if it fails you have to replace the whole cable with it's built in regulator.
Let me toot our horn here a bit - If you go with our TAPP Lite All-weather power port and GPS cable you get about the same set up but with a replaceable cable. And... you have a handy USB power port for charging your cell phone or other USB device.
The downside is that it's a bit more costly, but compared to most other motorcycle accessories, it's still mice-nuts and you have more functionalilty.
Both are available from GPS City.
http://www.gpscity.com/3br-powerspor...-9-inches.html (9" cable)
12" & 18" cables are available as well.

Malaysia GE13: MCA, Gerakan asked to rethink refusal to join Cabinet
Published on May 11, 2013 10:09 PM
KUALA LUMPUR - A senior official at Umno, Malaysia's largest political party, has urged two of its partners in the ruling coalition to reconsider their decision to avoid the Cabinet - a decision that followed their washout performances at the recent general election.
At a time when the ruling Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition needed stabilising and support, it was a not a good move for the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) and Gerakan to refuse Cabinet positions, said Umno information chief Ahmad Maslan.
Both MCA and Gerakan represented the Chinese community. Mr Maslan was speaking to reporters after launching a health product on Saturday, according to national news agency Bernama.
MCA won seven out of 37 parliamentary seats contested while Gerakan won one parliamentary seat.

If a massive earthquake ever hits the city of San Francisco, the resulting disaster could be even worse than the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina on the city of New Orleans.
The picturesque California city could be faced with the task of evacuating as many as 2 million people by sea if an earthquake buckled roads and brought down buildings and bridges.
"If I don't have a Bay Bridge and a Golden Gate Bridge, we're in essence an island," said the city's mayor, Gavin Newsom.
A serious earthquake could break gas lines, leading to massive fires. There might be no way to fight the fires if water lines were also broken.
Even worse, most of the city's police and firefighters live outside the city and would not be able to get in over broken bridges. Emergency communications would have to come from a system of quake-proof World War II sirens situated around the city.
Newsom says Katrina radically changed his approach to disaster preparedness. "I'm not thinking just outside the box. We're blowing up the box," he said.
Newsom's car can function as a mobile command center, complete with all emergency communication equipment. City Hall sits on rollers designed to withstand an earthquake. And in the event of a quake, Newsom says, civil servants would be pressed into a dual role.
"We have 30,000 city employees, all of them can be conscripted in the context of an emergency," he said. "We've reminded all our employees they have an obligation -- a real obligation -- to participate in disaster scenario plans and to participate in evacuation plans."
In October 1989, San Francisco received a hint of what could come when a magnitude 7.1 tremor hit 60 miles south of the city, leaving 4,000 injured and 63 dead. Part of a freeway collapsed, and property damage totaled $6 billion.
Mary Lou Zoback, a seismologist with the U.S. Geological Survey, says some of the problems that existed in 1989 still exist today.
"Most of the building stock in San Francisco, particularly the residential housing, was built prior to ... 1960," she said. "Something like 75 percent of it."
Those buildings are less resilient than newer structures and likely to be severely damaged or destroyed in the event of a major earthquake.
If the buildings are destroyed, their gas and water lines could also be ruptured, making the likelihood of a fire "very substantial," Zoback said.
Experts say many critical structures in the city may also not have been adequately upgraded to withstand earthquakes, including:
• the city's biggest hospital, San Francisco General, where many of the injured would be taken;
• the Bay Bridge connecting Oakland and San Francisco;
• and nearly a third of the city's schools.
Newsom concedes: "Everything needs to be reviewed." He noted that when the city suffered an electrical explosion in August, one of the city's mobile command centers was working with maps from 1985.
"Frankly, a lot of us have gotten our eye off the ball and focused almost exclusively on man-made disasters, and the lexicon of homeland security," Newsom said
"We've got a lot of work to do in this country on that but we've also got to get back to the basics ... that means looking at Mother Nature -- be it tornadoes and hurricanes, [and] obviously to the issues of earthquakes," Newsom said.

PACIFIC STROKES Pacific Strokes is a new non-competitive rowing program that was created for Pacific students who want to row and train for fitness and fun, but who simply don't have the time to train competitively or have difficulty beginning their training day at 5 am. Pacific Strokes currently meets 3 days a week; Tuesday and Wednesday evenings 6-8 pm, and Saturday mornings. Attendance is not mandatory, and participants may come as often or as little as their schedules allow. Strokes participants play teambuilding games, learn about collaboration and leadership themes, and experience the oldest collegiate sport in the United States in a safe, inclusive, and rewarding environment. This program is also a great way to meet new friends as our expert Student Rowing instructors teach you to "row as one". For those who may want to represent the University on our competitive Crew, but need special help developing core strength, base fitness, and learning proper diet info for both winning and success in the classroom, Strokes is perfect for you. PACIFIC CREW Pacific Crew is our University's competitive Rowing program, and no previous experience is necessary. Pacific Crew travels to Southern California in the fall to compete at the Newport Autumn Rowing Festival, and in the spring races in Sacramento at WIRA Championships. Tiger Rowers train on some of the best water in the West Coast, the Deep Water Channel, just 5 minutes from campus. Past Tiger Rowers have medaled at the regional and national level. Worried about managing student athlete priorities well? Pacific Crew athletes had a 3.34 GPA last season, one of the highest student group GPA's on campus. Try-outs are conducted in September and in January, with limited spots available. A free 2 week period is included for coaches and athletes to discuss whether Pacific Crew is a good fit, so come see if you can count yourself among the elite!

Rohrau (German: Marktgemeinde Rohrau) is a village in Austria. The name Rohrau comes from two single German words, Rohr which means 'reed' and Au which means 'riparian forest' - the name of the village tells its location - south of the village there is a riparian forest and a swamp covered with reed. Rohrau is located in the "industrial quarter" (Industrieviertel) of the state of Lower Austria. Its area is 20.50 km2, of which 8.38% is forested.[2] There is a kindergarten and a primary school (Volksschule).[3]
Rohrau is subdivided into the following Katastralgemeinden:
- Rohrau
- Gerhaus
- Hollern
- Pachfurth
The area in pre-Roman times belonged to the Celtic kingdom of Noricum. In Roman Times the region around Rohrau was part of the Roman province of Pannonia; Rohrau is near Carnuntum, a former Roman settlement and fort now called Petronell/Carnuntum. Rohrau grew along an old road next to river Leitha connecting Carnuntum to the next bridge crossing the river at Bruck an der Leitha, which is today the district capital.
In the Middle Ages a castle was built, surrounded by a moat; later it was converted to a chateau; its facade as seen today is in the "Josephinian Style", a late and very rare Baroque style that only was used during the reign of Emperor Joseph II in the late 18th century. The chateau has been owned by the Counts of Harrach since 1524 and contains the largest private collection of Dutch oil paintings in Austria.
In the 16th century Rohrau was given the right to hold a market; the village has since then been called a Marktgemeinde; 'market community'.
In the early 18th century the town was plagued by attacks from the Kuruczes, described by Geiringer as "the peasant army of the anti-Habsburg Hungarian party". In 1704 they plundered the town, burning homes, and returned to do the same in 1706; a further attack took place in 1707. A resident who lost his house to the flames in both 1704 and 1706 was Lorenz Koller (born 1675), who was the Marktrichter (roughly, mayor) of the town and the maternal grandfather of Joseph Haydn (see below).[4]
Rohrau as former border town[edit]
Rohrau, situated on the River Leitha, is a former border village. Currently, it stands in the Austrian state of Lower Austria, just across the river from the neighbouring state of Burgenland. The latter was part of Hungary until 1921. Rohrau once had a border checkpoint at the bridge crossing the river to what was then Hungary (this checkpoint is now a farmhouse). This border was not international, since Austria and Hungary where both part of the same Empire of Austria-Hungary and in fact the local noble family Harrach owned the land on both sides.
Rohrau and Haydn[edit]
The composer Joseph Haydn was born in Rohrau in 1732. His father Mathias was a master wheelwright who served as Marktrichter of the village; something akin to mayor. His mother had previously worked as a cook in the Harrach palace. Haydn lived in Rohrau only until about 1738, when he was sent away to attend boarding school in nearby Hainburg.
The composer's birth home (it is also the birth home of his brother Michael Haydn) is today a museum; it only partially reflects its original form since it has been repeatedly restored following fires and floods. It has also been expanded to serve its purpose as a museum.
A monument to Haydn was erected by Count Karl Leonhard Harrach in 1793, during the composer's own lifetime; it is thus the oldest of all Haydn monuments.[5] It was originally placed in the park of Harrach Palace, on an artificial island (the "Haydn-Insel") in the Leitha River, created for the purpose.[6] The monument was later transferred to the center of the village, where it stands today. When Haydn returned from London in 1795, he visited the monument; this was the occasion for an emotional return to his old home town.[7]
Historical population of Rohrau[edit]
- 1971: 1,341
- 1981: 1,258
- 1991: 1,224
- 2001: 1,455
- 2011: 1,544[2]
- 2014: 1,569
As of 2011, there were 47 companies related to agricultural and forestry in the municipality, and 89 non-agricultural jobs. 791 persons were employed at their place of residence. 43 people were unemployed.[2]
Local agricultural products: sugar beets, wheat, maize/corn, potatoes, sheep, wine.[citation needed]
Local politics[edit]
The village mayor (Bürgermeister), is Herbert Speckl, a conservative, Vice Mayor is Albert Mayer. The "village secretary" (Gemeindesekratär) is Josef Rössler. The mandates at village council are (in seats 19) 14 ÖVP (conservative), 5 SPÖ (socialists/labour), (Election 2015). Traditionally the conservative party (Österreichische Volkspartei) has a stronghold in Lower Austria, due to their support among farmers, crafters and bureau employees.
Rohrau is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vienna. The Catholic priest at the church of St. Vitus is Dr. Norbert Mendecki.

No fun Friday for U.S. team
Updated: September 17, 2004, 8:33 PM ETBy Jason Sobel | ESPN.com
Early in the afternoon on the 5th green at Oakland Hills, there was a rare sighting that spectators hadn't seen all day.
It was an arm, covered in red, white and blue stripes. And it seemed to be -- Wait! Could it be? Yes! -- pumping, back and forth, in a celebratory manner!
The appendage belonged to Chris DiMarco. The gesture? That was all American.
"We had 40,000 people that are out there rooting for us, we might as well try to get them as excited as we can," DiMarco ...

|College Football: Missouri at Kansas Preview & Picks
|Written by Anthony Rome

Top Five Showdown
Kansas won a share of the Big Eight title in 1968, and Missouri did the same the following season. Since then, neither school has won even a piece of a conference crown.
Now, each of the Big 12 archrivals is not only positioned for a shot at the conference title, but also perhaps a chance for the first national championship in school history.
Oddsmakers from Bodog have made Kansas –1.5 point spread favorites (View College Football odds) for Saturday's game (Game Matchup). Current public betting information shows that 51% of bets for this game have been placed on Kansas –1.5 (View College Football bet percentages).
In the 116th and most significant meeting of this rivalry, the second-ranked Jayhawks and the third-ranked Tigers square off for the Big 12 North title on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium as each team tries to keep its BCS title game hopes alive.
Neither school was ranked in the preseason poll, but Kansas and Missouri have put together two of the best campaigns in a college football season dominated by major upsets.
"It's a big game because we made it a big game," Missouri quarterback and Heisman Trophy contender Chase Daniel said. "Kansas made it a big game."
Daniel has led the Tigers (10-1, 6-1) to their highest ranking since they were No. 1 on Nov. 14, 1960, the last season they had 10 victories. He has set school records with 309 completions, 3,590 passing yards and 30 touchdown passes, leading a Missouri offense that ranks sixth nationally with 42.5 points per game and fourth with 506.3 yards per contest.
Kansas (11-0, 7-0), meanwhile, is second with 45.8 points per game and seventh with 500.2 yards per game.
"This is fun," Missouri coach Gary Pinkel said of the upcoming matchup. "Are you kidding me? It doesn't get any better than this."
The Jayhawks already have set a school record for wins, with as many as three possible games remaining, thanks in part to a star quarterback of their own.
Todd Reesing is tied with Daniel for third in the country with 30 TD passes - 12 more than the previous single-season school record.
"We're 11-0," Reesing said. "I feel great. It's awesome."
Reesing continued his stellar sophomore season - his first as a full-time starter - by completing 21 of 26 passes for 253 yards and four touchdowns without an interception in Kansas' 45-7 win over Iowa State last Saturday. He's thrown a school-record 205 consecutive passes without getting picked off.
That victory along with losses by then-No. 2 Oregon and then-No. 3 Oklahoma helped the Jayhawks jump two places to No. 2 in the AP poll - a spot that has seen more than its share of upsets. Five different second-ranked teams have lost since Oct. 6.
But that doesn't concern the Jayhawks, who are more proud about having achieved the highest ranking in school history than they are worried about a No. 2 curse.
"At this point, we're going out there every week trying to take care of business," Reesing said. "We've handled ourselves week in and week out, prepared real hard, practiced real hard. For us, we're taking it one step at a time and trying to get a win every week. This is what we've worked all year to try to do."
The Tigers' latest victory wasn't as convincing as the Jayhawks', but Daniel threw for 284 yards and four touchdowns as Missouri held on for a 49-32 win at Kansas State.
"I have the best job in America because I get to distribute the ball to these playmakers, and they're making the plays," Daniel said.
One of those playmakers is redshirt freshman Jeremy Maclin, who caught nine passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns and scored another TD on a 99-yard kickoff return in last week's win.
"It feels good - that's what all that preparation goes toward," said Maclin, who broke the NCAA freshman record for all-purpose yards and now has 2,201.
"When you do all that stuff, you can go out there and win a game, set you up for big-time games like next week against Kansas."
The Tigers dominated the Jayhawks last season as Daniel threw for 356 yards - a career-high at the time - and four scores without an interception in a 42-17 win in Columbia. Reesing was 4-for-8 for 63 yards and an interception in limited action as a freshman.
The Kansas-Missouri rivalry is the second most-played game in the FBS, trailing Minnesota-Wisconsin, which has been played 117 times including this season. The Jayhawks and Tigers have each won 53 games in the series, and they've tied nine times.
Though the rivalry is one of the oldest and most even in college football, none of the previous matchups compares to this year's.
"Everybody's going to remember the 2007 Missouri-Kansas game, I guarantee you that," Pinkel said. "Forever."

text: Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPSs) are a policy tool enacted by many states to stimulate growth of the renewable energy industry. They require utilities to generate or purchase a certain amount of their electricity from renewable energy by a specific date. If a utility does not meet this goal, they are often subject to a penalty known as an Alternative Compliance Payment (ACP). Renewable Energy Credits (RECs), called Alternative Energy Credits (AECs) in PA are tradable credits which represent the electricity generated from a renewable resource that utilities can purchase to meet their RPS goal. Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs) are a form of RECS that represent electricity generated from a solar system. RECs are subject to market dynamics with the set ACP effectively functioning as a price floor. RPSs are different in every state.
