MU's Championship> KU's Championship

[Braincase]

MU's signature win over the then #2 team in the country to become No.1 for a week is bigger than KU's National Championship. Yeah... :LOL:

Kansas had trouble stopping Jeremy Maclin and Missouri in the Border War game on Nov. 24. It was played before the second-largest crowd in Arrowhead Stadium history.

Nov. 24, 2007 What happened?
The oldest rivalry west of the Mississippi River never had a buildup like this. The undefeated Jayhawks were ranked second. Third-ranked Missouri stood 10-1. The largest viewing audience in the history of ESPN’s “College GameDay” pregame program saw Jayhawks colors on one side of the stage and Mizzou colors on the other.
On a chilly evening before the second-largest crowd in stadium history (80,537), the Tigers prevailed 36-28 to win their first North Division championship. Mizzou quarterback Chase Daniel was never better, completing 40 of 49 passes for 361 yards and three touchdowns.
What it means
Even in the afterglow of a remarkable evening, the schools may not press forward with the series in Kansas City beyond the 2008 game. Traffic, parking and security problems soured many, especially Kansas fans who wondered if their team surrendered a perfect season by surrendering the home field.
On the plus side, both teams dropped $1.3 million into their athletic coffers, and the return should be similar for this year’s game.
2 NCAA championship for Jayhawks April 7, 2008 What happened?
The impossible, that’s what. How it happened was as exhilarating as that it happened. Trailing Memphis 60-51 with 2 minutes, 12 seconds remaining, the Jayhawks staged a rally for the ages — punctuated by Mario Chalmers’ three-pointer with two seconds remaining in regulation — and defeated the Tigers in overtime.
As Bill Self continues to say, “Just about everything that could go right for us in the last two minutes did.”
What it means
Everything to the Jayhawks. The school that hired James Naismith in 1898 knows a little about the sport and stands with the nation’s greatest programs. In this exclusive club, only six have won at least three championships: UCLA, Kentucky, Indiana, North Carolina, Duke and Kansas.
With the leverage of a ring, Self got a new contract and the promise of improved facilities, including a basketball practice arena.
3 Kansas wins Orange Bowl Jan. 3, 2008 What happened?
Virginia Tech wins with defense, special teams and toughness. Kansas topped the Hokies in all three categories in a 24-21 triumph to win its first major bowl game. All-America cornerback Aqib Talib got things started with an interception return for a touchdown, and it just kept getting better from there for coach Mark Mangino’s squad.
What it means
The 2007 regular season wasn’t a fluke. Sure, the Jayhawks played cupcakes in September and avoided the more difficult South teams. But Kansas blew out nearly every team it faced, then defeated the ACC champion in a historical bowl setting.
4 Mizzou wins Cotton Bowl Jan. 1, 2008 What happened?
Blowout city. The Razorbacks haughtily played their SEC card, and Mizzou trumped it with a 38-7 triumph that stands with the program’s greatest bowl moments. The best running back on the field wasn’t Heisman runner-up Darren McFadden but Missouri’s Tony Temple, who set Cotton Bowl records with 281 rushing yards and four touchdowns.
What it means
The exclamation point of a record-setting season gives Missouri a head of steam heading into the fall. The Tigers not only are preseason favorites to repeat as North champions but to win their first Big 12 championship.
5 Michael Beasley dominates in purple 2007-08 What happened?
Kansas State basketball came alive when Beasley followed his coaching connection, Dalonte Hill, to Kansas State and helped send the Wildcats to their first NCAA Tournament in a dozen years. Beasley turned in one of the greatest freshman seasons of all-time, averaging a Big 12-record 26.2 points and grabbing 12.4 rebounds. He became the Wildcats’ first Big 12 player of the year and the program’s first consensus All-American since Bob Boozer.

[blueballs]

not this shit again

[keg in kc]

On an entirely different subject, on the way home from work tonight, a dude on the radio was talking about Mizzou leaving the Big 12 for the Big 10 (which would then have 12, how confusing) and Arkansas leaving the SEC to take their spot.

Let me know when MU wins an actual NC in basketball or football.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

We went to a better bowl, beat a better opponent and you were ranked higher than us because you beat us. REMATCH NEXT YEAR BITCHES!!! :)

It's funny though how we accomplished more in one year than you guys have after being a primarily "football school" for as long as we can remember lol.

Oh, and one more thing...

KU NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!! WHERE'S YOURS?! :)

[gblowfish]

Let me know when MU wins an actual NC in basketball or football.

Let me know when Darrell Arthur can solve this:
5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13

5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13Let me know when 3/4 of NCAA athletes can solve that. I'm sure Mizzou's basketball team will be too busy polishing up their brass knuckles and practicing the classic beer-bottle over the back of the head move in preperation for their next bar outings...err season.

[Pablo]

lol what?

Dude, read the post again hahaFrazod discounts KU's Orange Bowl victory because he says our AD is a cocksucker and sucked off the Bowl committee. I just posted his comment before he could.

oh lol my bad.

Our victory looks better than their's, that's for sure.

****in' Arkansas? Let's beat up the small kid in class everyone!!!

[Pablo]

oh lol my bad.

Our victory looks better than their's, that's for sure.

****in' Arkansas? Let's beat up the small kid in class everyone!!!Arkansas was a pretty solid team throughout the season. But they never had a QB, and McFadden/Jones just dominated. Then their coach split and McFadden knew he was gonna be getting big time NFL money soon, so I'd say they faced a pretty uninspired team.

Not MU's fault, but they probably didn't beat down an Arkansas team in their finest hour.

[hawkchief]

It says a lot about how crappy your school's sports history is, when a regular season victory over your top rival is considered by your home-town rag to rate higher than another teams' winning of a National Championship.

Congrats on the Tigger version of a National Championship, Mizzou. The Jayhawk fans will remain quite ecstatic about winning a 5th National title, however. Try it sometime if you can, you'll see how significant the difference really is.

[redbrian]

Bottles are KU's weapon of choice........but only when its 5 on 1......

[Frazod]

:LOL:

F#cking Gayhawk fan accusing MU of beating up the small kid. That's rich.

I see you ladies actually scheduled a couple of non-conference road games this year. I guess Perkins finally ate enough dick to feel manly.

And it begins..... again... and again.... and again....

Not u AGAIN!

Oh, c'mon... if I hadn't responded like that it would have ruined Gonzo's day. LMAOThis is true. Gotta keep the hatred strong throughout the off-season. I'll prolly have to start doubling my Hater-ade intake in August, just to get ready for the season.

[007]

True. :doh!:LMAO

[KC_Connection]

KU wins Orange Bowl.
KU wins National Championship.

KU>Missouri.

[Smed1065]

NC is good no matter who but fudge this BS.

Either #1 or not.
Period.

Bunch winers from both sides looks like.

[Skip Towne]

Let me know when Darrell Arthur can solve this:
5(-3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13

I doubt he'll have much need for that.

[Lzen]

That is retarded. I could understand if he wished to place it as #2, but c'mon. A national title always trumps any rivalry thing. Hell, by that logic, KSU's basketball win over KU should have been on this list, too, and not MU's bowl win over an obviously over matched Arkansas team.

[Bowser]

MU coudn't compete with KU in basketball, but KU football won a BCS Bowl Game while losing to a non-BCS football team (not to mention their biggest rival). I'm thinking that is why it got ranked up there.

Moranic KU retarts. Got to draw a picture for everything. :shake:

MU had a fantastic win over the then #2 team in the country, and became for one glorious week the #1 team in the country. KU got lucky and knocked off two number one seeds and slid into a national championship that will soon be forgotten.

[Demonpenz]

football is far bigger than basketball. Football is seeing who is tougher. It's not a sport for the weak. So Mizzou won in the sport that matters the most.
THE END

I WANT MY MONEYBACK!

All I know is that I hope both teams are unbeaten going into the rematch at Arrowhead this year.

[SithCeNtZ]

I'm a big KU fan and I could see his reasoning behind it. Think of it this way..

What is more likely to happen over the course of the next 50 years:

1)KU winning another(or multiple) basketball title(s)
or
2)KU MU playing in a national title elimination game in either the last week of the season in football or the rough basketball equivelent in the final four.

Maybe it's just me, but I think 2 is much more rare and unlikely. Sure, the KU title was a big story, but we could win 2 more in the next 10 years. KU MU might never see themselves with that much at stake ever again. That is why I could go along with him saying it was the #1 event.

the only reason why people care about basketball is so they have something else to watch and gamble on before the real sport of football comes back. It's not a huge deal but Football is the true test of who is a man and who are pussies. And KU got their dicks kicked in in the only sport that matters. Put your skirt back on and try not to get piss on yourself squatting

I'd bet good money they won't both be unbeaten... by a long shot.

No.
I think they may lose to Texas (maybe).
But KU actually has a Division I schedule this year.

It's not a great schedule, but at least they are playing Oklahoma.

I thought Kerkhoff was better than this. Is he becoming the Kevin Keitzman of the print media? Purposely saying stupid things to stir the pot... not caring if it's correct or not. OR, maybe he really does believe this which would be even more disturbing.

[Braincase]

your right. Black and gold is the colors! And these colors don't run! unless it is to the endzone! Black and GOLD Baby. Tigers RARWRRRR

So what you're saying is that you wouldn't trade a loss in football for a National Championship in basketball? Think about it....

[Braincase]

It's not a great schedule, but at least they are playing Oklahoma.

ANd Texas, and Texas Tech. When was the last time Mizzou played Oklahoma and Texas in the same season?

I can't remember. Maybe 2 years ago?

Kerkhoff is a KU homer. I would imagine that he's trying to get the KU fans' collective panties in a bunch so that they whine and cry about how their B-ball title is bigger/better.

^^Post of the day!

For the past 20 years, KU has brought home the only 2 National Titles seen in this area. That's 2 more than the Chiefs, Royals, Tigers and grapes COMBINED. Until these other teams and programs can right their ships, the Star's sports page should be named the "Jayhawk Daily", as Kansas hoops is the only program that routinely achieves any national recognition (at least the type youwould want your team to receive).

Yes, I realize that Mizzou ranks at the top of having felons on their teams, and KSU did recently win the National Soil Judging Contest, but it's really pretty amazing when you consider how pathetic both KSU and MU have been on a national scale - for decades. Try winning (heck sniffing) a Conference title or getting to a Sweet Sixteen, heck get to the NCAA tournament once and a while, then talk all the smack you want. Until then, be happy that KU has shown it can win National Championships, and is good enough to bring the area some recognition on a pretty regular basis.

Wow.... you win 2 championships in a secondary sport and suddenly you're The Greatest Team Evar.

Nice selective time period and area, too - carefully tailored to omit the most successful team in the entire midwest and its TEN world championships.

But by all means, do whatever it takes to make you feel good about yourself and your barren nothing of a state, douche. God knows you've got little else. LMAO

KU has 5 National Titles in major sports. Name another team in the KC area, pro or college, that has more than 1? Good luck!

P.S. Soil Judging Contests are not eligible.

Nope. Nobody is whining about anything. No need. Any columnists can write whatever they want. Doesn't make it any less ridiculous. ;)

You can throw out all the arguments you want but National Championship trumps all. At least in the 2 sports that I care about, basketball and football.

[DJJasonp]

It kills me how people on this board try to call out NCAA basketball as a "secondary" sport.

Do you realize the tournament tv ratings surpass bowl games.....or the amount of money spent on bets on tourney games compared to college football games?

Take a look again.

Fox is currently in a 4-year tv contract for BCS games - $320 million

Take a look at CBS's college basketball contract:

March Madness first-round NCAA Tournament bids the committee served up include an interesting matchup between two of the nation’s best freshmen phenoms, O.J. Mayo of the All Pac-10 selection from USC and Michael Beasley of Kansas State.

With a fickle stock market adding more pressure for companies to meet and exceed expectations, does CBS and big media influence the matchups?

CBS Pays Big Money for NCAA Basketball Tournament

CBS Sports agreed yesterday to pay $6 billion to keep the NCAA men's basketball tournament for 11 more years, one week after failing to retain its Nascar rights.

The stunning contract for the three-week tournament, which has had declining ratings, means CBS will pay the N.C.A.A. an average of $545 million a year, or more than 2 1/2 times its current annual fee of $216 million.

''There is no more important event at CBS, not just at CBS Sports, than the men's basketball championship,'' said Sean McManus, president of CBS Sports.

CBS outbid joint efforts mounted by ABC and ESPN and by Fox and Fox Sports Net. The joint Fox bid was estimated at $5.1 billion and the ABC/ESPN offer a bit higher.

In the annals of sports rights payments to leagues or associations, the $545 million annual fee ranks behind only the $2.2 billion paid to the National Football League and the $650 million paid to the National Basketball Association.

Repeat after me, $545 million for the NCAA Tournament contract vs $650 million for the NBA's contract.

The payment by CBS is $45 million more than it spends on average for American Football Conference rights and equal to NBC's payment for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.

Just because the word "ass" gets posted doesn't mean Jayhawk fans need to throw theirs in the air like a runway for a 767.

Mizzou isn't any good at basketball, so it's obviously not a sport.

Um... I've gone back through Mizzou's football schedule back to 2000, can't find a year where they played Texas and Oklahoma in the same year yet. Maybe you can give me a link?

KU has scoreboard in hoops, there's no denying that. If Mizzou were as good, we fans would be parading around in much similar fashion as well.

But as for football, you know it's got to be just like that splinter you can't quite dig out that they lost the north to Mizzou, and I love it. Yes, you have a BCS win, and great job beating VaTech (even though they had ZERO QB play that day, but that's another subject). But like I said - that one loss, that ONE SINGLE LOSS, has just got to drive KU fans batshit. Heh.

Like I said, I was going off memory.
A couple of years ago I went to a game down there, and they lost to Oklahoma, and I was "misremembering" that I thought that was the same year that Texas pummeled them, as well. I guess I was off.

Bottom line, though, is that both teams will not come into this year's game undefeated, which was my original point.

Of course, the other viewpoint is that we're still laughing about the fact that just as Mizzou became relevant in football again, they were upstaged nationally by the unlikely emergence of the KU football program. Anyway, KU-MU was a great game and I'm proud of the way KU hung in for 4 quarters.

Honestly, that loss did hurt. But the fact that KU got into the Orange Bowl and beat the #3 team in the country to win it took a lot of the sting out of that Border War game. ;) As a KU fan, I was very pleased with the football season overall. I never expected a 12-1 record and a BCS bowl win. But hey, you MU keep your fantasies going. Don't let us get in your way. :)

[Pablo]

And destroyed them. You won by how much?Yes, you destroyed an AK team that lost thier leadership, had no QB play, and had fairly uninspired play from McFadden, who knew he was heading to the NFL to make bank.

The best victory EVAR!!

[Valiant]

It kills me how people on this board try to call out NCAA basketball as a "secondary" sport.

Do you realize the tournament tv ratings surpass bowl games.....or the amount of money spent on bets on tourney games compared to college football games?

Take a look again.

Fox is currently in a 4-year tv contract for BCS games - $320 million

Take a look at CBS's college basketball contract:

March Madness first-round NCAA Tournament bids the committee served up include an interesting matchup between two of the nation’s best freshmen phenoms, O.J. Mayo of the All Pac-10 selection from USC and Michael Beasley of Kansas State.

With a fickle stock market adding more pressure for companies to meet and exceed expectations, does CBS and big media influence the matchups?

CBS Pays Big Money for NCAA Basketball Tournament

CBS Sports agreed yesterday to pay $6 billion to keep the NCAA men's basketball tournament for 11 more years, one week after failing to retain its Nascar rights.

The stunning contract for the three-week tournament, which has had declining ratings, means CBS will pay the N.C.A.A. an average of $545 million a year, or more than 2 1/2 times its current annual fee of $216 million.

''There is no more important event at CBS, not just at CBS Sports, than the men's basketball championship,'' said Sean McManus, president of CBS Sports.

CBS outbid joint efforts mounted by ABC and ESPN and by Fox and Fox Sports Net. The joint Fox bid was estimated at $5.1 billion and the ABC/ESPN offer a bit higher.

In the annals of sports rights payments to leagues or associations, the $545 million annual fee ranks behind only the $2.2 billion paid to the National Football League and the $650 million paid to the National Basketball Association.

Repeat after me, $545 million for the NCAA Tournament contract vs $650 million for the NBA's contract.

The payment by CBS is $45 million more than it spends on average for American Football Conference rights and equal to NBC's payment for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. But it is less than the $750 million average NBC is paying for the 2000, 2004 and 2008 Summer Olympics and the 2006 Winter Games.

Most view it as secondary to the NFL and college football.. Which basically it is..

[HemiEd]

I'm sure Frazod would enjoy that. Haha.

Actually, he probably would see some upside to it. Since we live in Big 10 (11) hell up here.

[Valiant]

This is hilarious.

KU hoops has always been a nationally recognized program.

But the same year MU finally does something worth noting on a national level, and Chase Daniels emerged as the hobbit extraordinaire, here comes KU to steal the stage.

Wouldn't say you stole the stage.. You went KSU route of scheduling no competition outside of the division and road it to a high ranking.. 9 times out of 10 MU beats KU at football that year..

Look at it this way... Your chances of beating MU at football last year are as good as your AD scheduling a tough non conference game that year..

Now basketball, proceed to make fun of MU.. They are a joke in basketball..

[Valiant]

Haha, sure. Sometimes I let my hate for those c*cksucking Tigger fairies get in the way of my rationalizing. You'll have a good team next year, but I hope Chase Daniels gets his throwing arm sucked into a wood chipper.

Mizzou had 2 losses, and should have been granted immunity from having to play anyone else, and thusly given the National Championship trophy on the merit of their KU victory alone.
