WTF? I know they haven't won a national title but they've at least been to a BCS Bowl, won the SEC West in Football 2-3 times, Final 4's, CWS, dominated in track. Arkansas is not as bad as people think considering the location of Fayetteville in the state. They've brought in some talent to NWA.
Well... we know that MU has had a much better go of it in basketball since '94.
BCS.. SchmeeCS. I think people that know the situation know MU got totally screwed out of a BCS game. Ranked #1 in nation and lost to OU in B12 champ game. Orange Bowl took a KU team that MU beat.
I'd also take a leap and say that the Cotton Bowl is pretty much a BCS bowl. It's on that level even though it doesn't have that tag. And Mizzou killed, destroyed, and mutilated Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl.
The West Division titles in the SEC are impressive. But remember MU has some North B12 titles too, and while not nearly as impressive as winning SEC West, there are still very good teams that had to be beaten to win that division.
Past 15 seasons:
Mizzou:
9 NCAA Tourney appearances
2 Sweet Sixteens
2 Elite Eights
8 20+ win seasons
2 30+ win seasons
2 conference tourney championships
2 seasons with losing records
Arkansas:
7 NCAA Tourney appearances
0 Sweet Sixteens
0 Elite Eights
6 20+ win seasons
0 30+ win seasons
1 conference tourney championship
5 seasons with losing records

So what you are saying is that in the last 20 years, Mizzou has been better at football and basketball?

BCS MNC winners
(6) SEC West = (3) Alabama, (2) LSU, and (1) Auburn
(0) B 12 North = NONE
Get that weak argument out of here!
