It's not really a groundbreaking theory to claim that college football fans are amongst the most passionate (read: insane) in all American sports.   Some of the time that passion can be a bit alarming and other times it can be borderline homicidal, but on the rare occasion it can be manifested in some good old fashioned fun. 


The Oklahoma State Cowboys fans realize that their team is a double-digit underdog coming into Columbia to face the potent Tigers on Saturday and rather than engage Tiger fans in a traditional flame war, a handful of them have elected to take a more humorous route, at least in one particular thread on their chatboard OrangePower.com. 


It appears as if Okie State fans have scoured the Mizzou roster and noticed several notable look-a-likes that will be on the sidelines Saturday at Faurot.  A few of our favorites:

Jimmy Burge as....


Thurman Merman from Bad Santa


Tommy Saunders as...


a houseplant


Blaine Gabbert as...


Parker Lewis (Can't Lose)



Jeff Wolfert as...


Chucky


And that's just the tip of the iceberg.  There are six pages of look-a-likes and counting. 

If nothing else it's a more civilized way to mock your school's next opponent.
