Why play non-conference games at all, then? Kansas has 3 or 4 games to schedule each year. This year, Kansas scheduled Georgia Tech, Northern Illinois, and McNeese State.
I defy you to make a single argument as to why any one of those teams makes more sense for KU to play than Mizzou. It's certainly not like Missouri needs that game in order to generate interest in the football team. Outside of the Mizzou game at Arrowhead, there is not one compelling game on their schedule with the possible exception of KSU.
Your home schedule next year looks something like:
McNeese State
Northern Illinois
Oklahoma State
Texas
Iowa State
Louisville
Now THAT is a compelling reason to buy season tickets. Not even Bob Davis can get excited about that.
