You mean I shouldn't kill everyone wearing KU fanfare?


awwww, man.....

I remember having one from the Big 8, it had the tiger wearing a big 8 crown standing behind the jayhawk bent over and looking all F***ed in the arse and stuff.

Some KU awesomeness...

n00b's are funny too.

That's the little-known Walt Disney story.

Now this is some "cart before the horse". I do like KU's chances to do well next year, younger talent and all, but this goes way too far in the speculation. Can we finish this season before we start to plan the domination of NCAA football for years to come?

KU fans are really quite foolish. It is obviously MU that is going to be going to three BCS bowls and a NC in the near future. The homerism of these KU fans is astounding!

I think both teams are going to have to work real hard to attain the same level of success next year they are experiencing this year. Parity does seem to be creeping in to CF, while that makes it easier for teams to move up it also makes it harder to stay up, there's going to be other teams in the same situation trying their damnest too. Maybe it'll happen, the day when Big 12 talk begins and ends with KU, MU, OU, and Texas will be a great day but...

Comparing Missouri residents to Kansas residents is like comparing Wallmart clothing to the 1/2 price store...."IT'S THE SAME THING". While you may support different university athletic programs, both support groups are filled with essentually the same caliber of people. Neither has had a GREAT football team in years, and resorting to calling each other knuckle draggers and inbreeders is assinine. I have seen great things come out of both universities, and enjoy the success of both as it brings attention to the area. Last year I was VERY impressed with MU wrestling...now both programs are in the national spotlight for football....Kudos to both. Resorting to dredging up the darkest hour of both states is sad.

Now it has been said several times the "Jayhawk" is offensive, but it was also pointed out that that name had been used BEFORE the civil war, thereby negating the mascot anger. If we want to be that inane, lets say the MU mascot is bad because of the Siegfried and Roy attack. Tigers kill people, how, oh how can MU use such a violent mascot? :rolleyes: Get real.

With that said, how can a person with several degrees be so dumb as to type this?

Actually... the Missouri Tigers are named after the Bushwhackers in a manner of speaking... there was a famous civil war poem that related the Bushwhackers to something like "Tigers in the underbrush"... I believe thats where the school got their name from

At least that is what I learned in a history class while going there.

as for the t-shirt.. its tasteless and classless and I can't stop laughing about it :)

"SaaaaaWeeet! It could have one of dem rolling roofs!"

First, I think you would have to expect KU fans to be a lot more optimistic or "homers". The KU football fanbase has expended greatly in the last 3 years, so a majority of the football fans are relatively new. I'm not suggesting that Mizzou doesn't have any fans on the bandwagon, but I think a majority of the fans have been fans for a while and are so used to upset and disappointment that we can't be as optomistic.

As far as being "exposed", look at the KU season so far.
Central Michagan, SE Louisiana, Toledo and Florida International. As it stands, the KUpcake arguement is out, because an average score of 53.5 to 5.75 is devastating, no matter the quality of the team.
The next games:
Beat K State, 3-4 in the Big 12 and struggling, by 14 points.
Whipped Baylor 58-10, but Baylor is 0-7 in the big 12 and clearly not a good team.
Beat Colorado, 3-4 in the Big 12 and about the same quality as K-State by 19-14, and didn't score any half time points against them.
Beat Texas A&M, who is also on the same level as CU and K-State, 19-11.
Whipped a struggling Nebraska 76-39.
Beat OK State at Stillwater 43-28.

At this point, a win is a win, a huge blow out cupcake or not, winning your first 4 games by an average of 47 points a game is phenominal. KU deserves to be ranked where they are. However, the toughest team they have faced to this point is Colorado, who they barely beat and had no points against in the first half.
Foxsports has the KU opponents ranked as
40. Colorado
44. Texas A&M
45. OK State
69. K-State
77. Central Michigan
82. Baylor
94. Toledo
119. Florida International
Not in top 119: SE Louisiana

If KU beats MU, a win is a win and KU stays at the top. If KU loses to MU, they are now a 1 loss team with a fairly weak schedule that hasn't beat a team in the top 39. So IF they lose, how far do they drop? The other 1 loss teams would be Oklahoma, West Virginia, Ohio State and Arizona State. With strength of schedule would you rank KU above any of these teams? I think that IF KU loses, they definately drop out if the top 10, and possibly drop as many as 10 spots on the ranking. Is that considered "exposed"? To me, yes but I guess that depends on your definition. The exposure won't only be because of the drop in the rankings but with no more games to play if they did drop that much it will really affect the quality of bowl game they would get.
