You lost your game. You didn’t win a natty. Stop emulating other pathetic programs doing the same thing

One thing that folks don't realize is that kansas had a damned good team and a respectable program, back then. Look no further than my avatar and you'll see an NFL Hall of Famer getting sacked in that infamous game.

We thank our SEC brethren and sistren for showing us how to claim what’s rightfully ours. Your impeccable character and commitment to integrity is a true inspiration.

We should go back and claim victories from the decades that Texas and OU cheated their asses off.

You didn't answer my question yesterday. Do you still claim that Texas "won" the Big 12 in 2008?

This is total bullshite. Alabama only had one regular season loss in '60. Rightfully, this is Alabama's championship.

Minnesota lost to a 4 win Purdue team in their regular season and Alabama lost to a much stronger Tennessee team.

Missouri lost to Kansas during a regular season game. Kansas was a high school team then.

Bowl games didn't matter in 1960 so, Alabama wins this one. I hope they add it soon.

Meh. My parents are very elderly. This is before even THEY graduated from college. Anybody that was in school at that time to remember it is close to 90.

Pointless.

Your parents are not pointless just because they are old. That's disgusting. Just because things happened before you were born doesn't mean those things had no value.

You must really think you are hot shite to believe the world didn't begin until you were born.

That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying what's the point and going back and claiming it NOW after all these year? THAT's what's pointless. I'm pretty sure that none of the 1960 Mizzou grads have been saying for the past 65 years that they were cheated out of the 1960 Natty. So this is nothing but an excercise in |)!¢|( waving.

per wiki:

The 1960 season included one of the most famous games in the history of Missouri vs. Kansas rivalry. Missouri had won its first nine games and was ranked atop the polls, but the visiting Jayhawks won 23–7.

Kansas used an ineligible player, Bert Coan, in the game and the win was officially awarded to Missouri by the Big Eight Conference on December 8. The reversal brought Missouri's record to 11–0 instead of 10–1.

A national champion doesn’t lose by 16 to Kansas. Dress it up all you want it’s still Kansas
