If it gives him a boost, Pence will probably drop a damn "Lets get that Kentucky-Indiana thing going again" line.

Awesome, a game literally no ones cares about outside of Mizzou or Kansas. Can't wait.

That does suck. It was one of the reasons I was excited when they entered the SEC that we would get more in-conference quality basketball. Even thought it might spur up a fun rivalry between them and Arkansas after the Anderson deal. Shame.

It would be a good thing for our newcomers to play their rivals. Florida plays FSU, Georgia plays Tech, Kentucky plays Louisville, South Carolina plays Clemson etc. These games are all good for the conference and for those teams and they add something special to the conference - games that matter and games that are hard fought even in years when nothing is on the line. The SEC revels in its traditions and both TAMU and Mizzou are missing something that they could bring to the table by renewing these rivalries.

Exactly. I'd love to throw KU on the schedule annually too, if we could.

Sounds like Missouri is having second thoughts about ruining its relationship with longstanding rivals, such as Kansas, and embracing a very, very different culture instead (slack-jawed yokel SEC).

Kind of like aggy did to TEXAS. Two aggy legislators filed bills to force the series to continue. It didn't work. Have fun dealing with uncivilized SEC fans, aggy.

this is the truth.

quote:

Beginning in the 2002–2003 season, the series was memorialized in a sponsored contest, under which points were awarded for athletic contests between the two schools. Only sports where both schools compete are eligible for the contests, and because Kansas fields fewer teams than Missouri, several of Missouri's sports (such as gymnastics, men's swimming and wrestling) do not count in the Border Showdown statistics. Bonus points are awarded for matchups that take place in post-season competition (Big 12 or NCAA tournaments). Between 0.5 and 3.0 points are awarded per matchup, with approximately 24–27 matchups taking place per academic year. The Border Showdown moniker is applied most publicly to the annual football and basketball games. Missouri ended the Showdown series with an 8–2 lead.

The results of the Border Showdown are as follows:[25]
2002–03 MU 32, KU 8.5
2003–04 KU 21.5, MU 18.5
2004–05 MU 22.5, KU 17.5
2005–06 KU 23, MU 17
2006–07 MU 25, KU 14
2007–08 MU 24, KU 15
2008–09 MU 23, KU 17
2009–10 MU 23, KU 16.5
2010–11 MU 23, KU 16
2011–12 MU 31.5, KU 8

So you're admitting for the third time in two days that Texas was the one who pussed out on that series.

So scared of Aggy...
