The "biggest game on the schedule" is whatever game means the most during a given year.
KU Football isn't like the basketball games where they are nationwide events. No one is arguing that.
Fact is that the MU game held importance yes because it was a state rivalry but much more important was that the outcome directly affected the standings in the conference.
You can holler all you want about a "rivalry game" but they don't matter unless it counts.
You can laugh all you want but KU is interested in winning the Big 12 Conference in football and going to the CFB playoffs. You don't go and spend the money on a coach like Weis, build an entirely new track facility in anticipation of renovating your stadium if that wasn't the goal.
