18. Al Onofrio, Missouri- 31.6%

Mizzou was a funny team during his tenure - they never won more than eight games during his seven years at Mizzou. They were giant slayers, but would lay eggs against the worst Big Eight teams.

Mizzou defeated #4 Notre Dame in South Bend, #7 Colorado, #12 Iowa State, #2 Nebraska, #19 SMU, #7 Arizona State, #5 Nebraska, #2 Alabama at Legion Field, #14 Oklahoma State, #8 USC at the Coliseum, #2 Ohio State in Columbus, #14 North Carolina, #3 Nebraska in Lincoln, #14 Colorado, #20 Arizona State, and #15 Colorado.

This is so true. Uncle Al went a pathetic 1-6 vs. ku, including a 1-3 record vs. ku teams that finished below 0.500.

The most glaring example of the inconsistency with which his teams played was in 1976:

MU went on the road and beat a USC team that finished 11-1 by 21 points, beat a 9 win Ohio St team (also on the road), beat a 9 win Nebraska team (on the road) by 10 and also somehow managed to lose by 25 at home to a 5 win Illinois team and lose by 27 at home to a 6 win ku team.
