But your record in 07 wasn't better. It was 11-2 vs 12-1 for Kansas. The common opponents results were identical at 5-0. The computers rated Kansas higher at the end. The only thing you have is the H-2-H. I'm disputing your quote that the difference in quality is "clear" when it's not.
Kansas was favored in the Mizzou game by (-1.5). The bettors, you know the folks putting up actual money, looked at the two teams seasons in their entirety and conculded Kansas was the better team. It didn't end up that way but it should show you that the idea Mizzou had the better year (or team) up to that point is baseless.
