When KU is back on it's feet having a BCS win will do much more good as a recruiting tool than having not even played in a game.
You can try and diminish all you want but MU isn't exactly lighting the world on fire recruiting wise. Having a shiny BCS game trophy to point to (or a playoff appearance from here moving forward) will be much, much better than pointing to something like the Alamo Bowl or Independence.

One good year in probably 100 does not equate to being on their feet. They benefited from the perfect storm of decent team meets ultra weak schedule. Oh and a BCS trophy in 5-10 years will be as relevant as a Cotton Bowl or Gator Bowl trophy.
