I also miss the "not trying to fit in." Missouri simply isn't a "southern" state. A lot of people tried way too hard, buying an entire new wardrobe and such.



Agree with all of this, especially on this board. The supposed Mizzou fans who don't miss any of the Big 8 schools really must have just started being fans in last 10 years. I agree the football is a step above in the SEC (basketball a step below) but I had 30 years of playing and visiting Iowa State, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, KU...

Did Texas and OU (and Nebraska) basically cause this? Sure but doesn't mean it doesn't suck what college sports has become.

Now as for A&M, Tech, Baylor, and Texas there were some great teams and games but no real history.

Are these schools really worth missing?
Avg Attendance
ISU 52000
KSU 53000
OSU 54000
KU 34000.....70% capacity (dang)

Nothing against Missouri at all. Are these four teams great fanbases? Or is it that you are more familiar with them?
