Lights... Cameras... But the only action is talking at the Big 12 Media Day.

"Just trying to get a feel of how everybody is thinking. Getting different views from different schools," said Jeremy Maclin, Missouri Wide Receiver.

The Tigers are picked to win the Big 12 North.

"I think predictions... The only thing that it means is people have some degree of respect for your program. I wish we were picked every year... Every single year," said Gary Pinkel, Missouri Football Coach.

One look at the Media Guise and you'll see the Tigers play 12 games, but most of the Tigers are thinking about number one, Illinois.

"Illinois is a big game. They got a lot of good people back," said Chase Coffman.

"Illinois... I'm telling you. They're a top 15 team. It's going to be an ESPN audience. It's going to be blowout material first game of the year... So we have to be really good, really fast," said Chase Daniel, Missouri Quarterback.

"Yes... We know what's on our schedule. Yes, we know we go to Lincoln and we go to Austin, but none of that means anything if we can't get past the first game of the year," said Maclin.

The Mizzou offense is so popular, everyone wants to join in on the fun.

"I've been joking around with Coach C and Coach Pinkel that they'll give me one shot. I don't know if they're joking or not... But we'll see. We'll see," said William Moore, Missouri Safety.

But at Media Day... Talk is cheap.

"I think he's probably kidding," said Maclin.

The Big 12 Media Days continue Tuesday and Wednesday in Kansas City.
