This looks to be one gutsy move by some enterprising Missouri State fans.

The FCS school travels to Oklahoma State on Saturday and sometime before Friday morning the fountain in front of the Edmon Low Library and another fountain near the Wes Watkins Center on OSU's campus were dyed maroon, Missouri State's primary color.

Messing with our fountain is a bold move, Missouri State. Let's see how that works out for you tomorrow. #okstate pic.twitter.com/FfAZVt0sU8 — Matt Fletcher (@matt_fletch) September 5, 2014

We reached out to Oklahoma State and the fountains were dyed with what the school believes to be latex paint. As of 11 a.m. Friday, the fountains were running clear. That's a quick cleanup job. (The school also said it had two reports of vandalism but no suspect descriptions in either.)

We understand trash talking and while we don't condone acts of vandalism, they can be common in rivalries. Missouri State and Oklahoma State is not a rivalry. (We won't entirely rule out a subvert Oklahoma Sooners trolljob, but it doesn't seem likely.)

The Bears have played six FBS-level teams in the past four seasons and haven't come close to pulling an upset. The closest game was a 28-14 loss to Iowa in 2013.

Never say never, of course, but the odds are stacked severely against Missouri State. There aren't even any gambling lines on the game. If the Bears win, we could see someone crazily dying the fountain in celebration. But before the game? That's just asking for trouble.
