MU was unranked at kickoff. MU finished 7-5 that year and played a WAC team. In true Mizzou fashion, you lost.
Quit embarrassing yourself.

If you want to swap out Cotton Bowls for Fiesta Bowls back in the day, the point still stands. Then again, as a fan of a team who hangs banners for Helms championships, you may not want to go down that road.
