No. KU hasn't been competitive in football in years and doesn't appear to be making any progress on that front.
Basketball might be a different story. KU has the better program, but Mizzou got its shots in over the last few years. But, now Mizzou gets to play KSU transplant Frank Martin at SCAR and Mike Anderson at Arkansas, and Kentucky and Florida. And at least this year, Ole Miss has made itself an interesting game.
That said, Kansas and Missouri will eventually play again. When that happens, I will wax poetically about the historical rivalry, about Todd Reesing rising from the ground with Mizzou gold turf stuck in his face mask, about the 2009 basketball game in Columbia and Zaire Taylor, and other such memories. But don't believe me when I say I want the game played into perpetuity--I will be drunk on nostalgia and not thinking clearly. I'd rather be playing aTm with a berth in the SEC Championship Game on the line the final week of the regular season than playing another cupcake.

Quite honestly, don't think of them until someone else brings them up. Would I like to see the game restored? I suppose. Do I dwell on it? Nope. Go visit Tigerboard (especially the basketball board) and I'd imagine you'd find a lot more Mizzou fans that still have kU on the mind.
