This is the last regular scheduled Border War game between the Missouri Tigers and Kansas Jayhawks, due to that Missouri is heading off to the SEC next year. This is the 120th meeting between these two schools and with no future game scheduled the winner will have ultimate bragging rights before these two teams take the field against each other, and who knows how long that will be.
Kansas has struggled all year and when looking at all of the stats they don not come out on top of any category, and this includes punt statistics as well.
Even though MIssouri is a huge favorite their fans are still confident, but also concerned that in a rivalry game that anything could happen:
I mean ... this being the last Border War for a while, one has to remain a bit paranoid. It has been a pretty difficult year for Mizzou Athletics, at least compared to other recent years, and there's always the chance of a twist-the-knife loss that would, in Kansas' (incorrect) eyes, even the all-time series. It would be infuriating, which alone makes it a possibility. Crazy things happen in rivalry games. That said ... man oh man, would it take a lot for Kansas to win this game. They are just not a good football team. Jordan Webb could make a couple of plays, and the Jayhawks could figure out how to ring up some early rushing yards. Plus, Mizzou could turn the ball over a couple of times, and this game could be close for a half. But the second half would still take place, and trends suggest that Mizzou should blow KU out of the water after halftime.
