Basically what you guys are saying is that MU should've got the bid simply because they beat NU to open conference play, nevermind the fact that MU stumbled at the end of the regular season while NU finished strong.

So never mind the 35 point beatdown and the better record. WE FINISHED STRONG! Not strong enough to be RANKED, like Missouri was, but strong..... in some way.

:whackit:

Sorry, that extra win doesn't mean much when NU played Va Tech in non-con play, a team that went on to win a BCS game, while MU played...ummm...a 5-7 Illinois team.

The same Chokie team that lost to Kansas, right?

Yeah, they just impressed the hell out of me. LMAO

We do know that arguing isn't going to change what's in the past, right?

These gymnastics to justify Nebraska going to a bowl over a superior team are entertaining.

No, it's a form of exasperation that you would use one of the dumbest of all sports arguments:

We beat "X" who beat "Y", therefore we are better than "Z".

Appalachian State beat Michigan who beat Florida, who beat Kentucky, who beat LSU, therefore, Appalachian State should be the 2007 National Champs.

It is useful because it reminds Mizzou fans why this conference is a piece of shit.

Bug seems to think it can negate a 35 point slaughter at home.

Look, the bottom line here is that if you fuggers would've taken care of business against KU, this wouldn't even have been an issue. We shit the bed when we played you, you shit the bed when you played KU. There wasn't a significant difference in the two teams' seasons overall.

Nebraska lost to Iowa State last season while Mizzou beat the Cyclones. Ergo Missouri should have played Arizona in the Holiday Bowl.

I don't recall Kansas beating us by 35 points in Columbia, do you?

I really don't think this whole "bed shitting" angle works.

Except that Missouri destroyed Nebraska head-to-head, had a better overall record, and finished ahead in conference. Exact same seasons if you disregard those three minor details.

I wasn't making the argument that NU was better than MU.

Iowa State beat us at home last season. Were they a better team than NU?

No, but Missouri was a better team since we beat Iowa State :)
