Alright y’all! We got a game this Saturday. The reigning National Champion Jayhawks are as self-righteous as ever and coming to Columbia, where the Tigers look like they could have their best coached team since the Obama administration. Self is still figuring out his rotations (to a painful degree), and in Columbia anything can happen.
This thread can also be used to talk football and how this rivalry is oh so dead, which is why a bowl game that is not happening has arguments spilling over into Mizzou threads, KU threads, college football threads, and twitter and facebook wars all over my feed.
Join me and let’s all talk about how this game doesn’t matter anymore and all angrily ask why I’m missing asterisks in the thread title. [Reply]
Not taking a picture of myself taking a whiz on Allen Fieldhouse may end up going down as my life's biggest regret.
Was driving from Denver to CoMo for the holidays one year and decided to take a detour off I-70 through Lawrence. Parked by Allen Fieldhouse fully intending on taking a picture of myself peeing on it and sending it to a good buddy of mine from Chicago who was a KU grad.
I was into photography at the time and had a good camera and tripod in my car, plus the students were gone for the holidays and campus was a ghost town. Even if a campus cop would've caught me, jail would've only been one overnight max and the fine would've been less than a grand probably. I would've had that photograph for a lifetime. But I chickened out like a pussy and it gnaws on my soul to this day. [Reply]

I used to at least understand when Missouri fans would say this while making decent bowl games every year... oh yeah, we suck at basketball, but we don't care, we have football!
Except you don't even have that now outside of Alex Smith morale victory "we played Georgia close for a little while!" bullshit and avoiding Kansas in bowl games.
So, as a fan, what's the point of saying one is relevant and one isn't? You're so concerned about the financials of the school you cheer for and TV contracts, that it must be brought up in a thread about a single basketball game? :-) [Reply]

You have to understand that guy willingly lives in Columbia. That’s like choosing to live in Ferguson or St Joe. [Reply]
