Football
Mizzou: 11-2
Kansas: 3-9

Basketball
Mizzou: 9-0
Kansas 6-3

Mizzou is running full steam ahead in all sports and having success in the best conference in the country, and CBS devoted seven straight hours of national programming on one of the biggest sports Saturdays of the year to wall to wall Mizzou coverage.

Kansas, on the other hand, has the same dumpster fire of a football program we've come to expect, their conference is held together with bailing wire and duct tape, and their beloved basketball team is simply mediocre and struggling to sell tickets in Kansas City. Even their local television ratings are suffering.


Have fun playing with your new friends from West Virginia and Fort Worth.

Already happened. I can see why you would not have noticed. Your school was an afterthought during the whole process. Outside of UT and OU the true power conferences picked off the teams they cared about. For whatever reason no one wanted an "immortal" school like Kansas. Who knows though maybe if realignment happens again the power conferences will wise up and snag an "immortal" school.

Gator Bowl fan charter from Nebraska cancelled because of lack of interest
Thu, Dec 12, 2013 @ 8:16 pm

Associated Press

LINCOLN, Neb. | Low demand has led to the cancellation of a charter flight that had been lined up to take Nebraska fans to Jacksonville for the Gator Bowl.

The Lincoln Journal Star reports that Pennsylvania-based Collegiate Athletics canceled the Southwest Airlines 137-seat charter that was to fly travelers who booked through Executive Travel of Lincoln, AAA Nebraska and Allied Tour & Travel of Norfolk.

Executive Travel’s Steve Glenn said it’s the first time in 27 years that he’s had a charter to a bowl game cancelled.

Nebraska is playing 23rd-ranked Georgia for the second straight year in a bowl game. Last year Georgia beat the Huskers 45-31 in the Capital One Bowl.

Until then, they can piggy-back the success of other teams in their conference until they are good enough to one day, some day...eh...maybe, make an appearance with the other elite teams.

Congrats Nick on your new contract.

This year they finished 49 in Sagarin. Behind Miss State-duke-Boise-Vandy-Houston-Utah st-northern Illinois-UNC. Read that list twice for effect.

KU is just not good at football. They are just awful. PB tries to poke Bo in this thread about NU football, but he fails miserably...considering every KU football fan on this forum would kill to be consistently going 8-4, 9-3 and going to a bowl game. So as much as PB wants to dig at NU football, deep down he would give his left nut for KU to be that good.

Pelini says nobody cares about basketball, but the Corn's own fan base strongly disputes that lie. Extending it up to Omaha we find Creighton finished an astounding 6th nationally. Nebraska residents are crazy about the sport!
