Now see, I thought you had said that as sarcasm, seeing as how you all won that Orange Bowl you managed to back your way into.

Not sure how you "back into something" when you're 11-1.

Besides, had KU lost that game you would have a point. But they didn't. And it went down as the greatest moment in KU Football history.

No, it wasn't sarcasm. But it's going to be difficult for MU after moving to playing Tex and OK every year, as it will for KU.

Really, luv? This coming from you?

2006 KcChiefs (9-7) - that was backing into the playoffs. And their performance against the Colts proved that.

2007 Kansas Jayhawks (11-1) - that was earned. Although I agree that MU by virtue of beating KU was slightly more deserving, that is not always the way that works.

But make no mistake, KU did everything they needed to do to become BCS eligible. At that point its up to the bowls to pick which teams they want within their guidelines. So let's stop with the revisionist history bullshit. Mmmmkay.

And lastly, KU proved they deserved to be there by winning it.

What coming from me? I've never claimed to be anything but an MU football fan, even if I learned late not to root for two schools in different sports. Yes, KU deserved the opportunity, but I think MU got jipped. I've talked to KU football fans around here who have agreed.
