In 2007, Kansas got picked over Mizzou because your AD guaranteed ticket sales. Nothing more. NO argument can be made that Kansas was MORE deserving of a BCS bowl bid, period. That's the difference.
Mizzou got what they deserved this year, they did not in 2007. That's what sticks in the craw of Mizzou fans.

Kansas had one loss. They beat Virginia Tech with exciting play and impressive athletes.
Missouri just didn't provide the same entertainment value. The Orange Bowl got exactly what they wanted.
