Not now. Hasn't been that way for a while. This isn't Big Monday. This is Show-the-Country-Your-Program-is-Back Monday. At least to Mizzou fans.
But more simply, what this is, is the way things should be. It's Ryan Robertson being bombarded with boos. It's the Antlers in dresses. It's Norm and Roy and Dooling's (non) charging foul and Tate's jumper and the best rivalry in this part of the country. And it's back, folks. Enjoy it. This is how it was in the good old days. Let's hope it stays this way for a while.

This is hilarious. What's sad is not that "this generation doesn't know what this feels like," but that this is MU's National Championship game. KU plays for the real ones.
And to say that MU and KU were anywhere near equal in basketball at any point in history like this article makes it sound is absolutely hysterical.
