Maybe it’s a rant rivalry, but in real life I don’t know any MU fan that considers LSU a rivalry. I’m not going to post the childish “I forgot LSU was in the SEC” shite. Here’s a fact, if after more than a decade you don’t know Mizzou is in the SEC, you are a dumbfrick! Full stop! No reason to prove it over and over again.
Maybe a few fans started to consider Arky a rival b/c they were thrust upon us, but we handle them easily each year, so what’s the fun in that?
All True Sons will never give up the hate and vitriol we have for KU. We were scheduled to restart the football part of the rivalry in 2025 and we are very looking forward to it. I hope it doesn’t disappear with conference realignment. That’s our only true rivalry no matter how cold it has become.

Yeah, both teams have sucked pretty bad since you joined with the exception of 3 years for you and one for us so the end of the year, forced rivalry game, is generally insignificant. At least our team got up for the lsu game, but this game means nothing and should be discontinued due to lack of interest.

I attended Mizzou in the 70's and will always consider Kansas our rival. It's a crying shame the folks there decided to end 100 years of tradition because their feelings were hurt.
With that said, I enjoy playing teams like TN, Florida, and LSU. I'll enjoy playing OK again this season.
A final thought...old codgers like most on this board (myself included) fail to realize there's a whole generation of young fans who have grown up only knowing MO & A&M in the SEC. They can whine & complain all day, but as the young fan replaces the old, the typical SEC fan will fully accept Missouri because it's all they've known. Sadly, for many change is hard and feared, rather than embraced.
