So your best team ever still wasn't as good as our team that particular year?
No our best team ever was in 1960 which was ranked #1 in the nation until the last regular season game of the season, then went on to win the Orange Bowl. National championships were awarded *prior* to the bowl games back then, but given that the team that was ahead of us, Minnesota, lost its bowl game, and the one team that beat us in our last regular season game had to forfeit due to cheating, most every analyst that's looked at it has said in the modern era where the NC is awarded AFTER the bowls, Mizzou would have been the national champion in 1960.
Thanks for asking though.

Regardless, I have yet to see a Mizzou fan answer the question as to which particular matchup advantage they have vs. UGA

Correct me if I'm wrong, but yall never even won the Big 12 did you? I just don't know how you expect to contend in the SEC for the next few years. Stick to basketball.
