I've been born and raised a Mizzou fan, but I tried to make this as unbias as possible. I am curious about the outside view of the team. Im really curious about KU fans opinions of them. I know some hate Mizzou no matter what but I know some respect the kind of team they were this year. But which are there more of? Honestly this has got to be my favorite basketball team of all time. I love their style of play and the Team work they showed. Mike Anderson did a great job of digging the program out of the hole it was in.

I'm a KU fan. I despise MU but I knew they had a good team this year. I had them going to Elite Eight on my bracket. But I also had KU going to the Final Four. Mike Anderson did well, with that much returning talent he did ok, but to people who say he should of gotten COTY, I say "KU lost 80% of their scoring and got to the Sweet 16".

If KU was on fire and needed my help to put it out I'd pour more gas on the fire. I utterly detest KU to the nth degree. Not hate...that's not nearly as good a word as depise.

Okay, enough fun! KU did well this year with their team but MU was the better team. Coach Anderson has gotten them into a team first mentality and now has WIN in their vocabulary. Even though two starters are graduating, this team isn't a player dominated team. It's a TEAM. Anybody could be the top shooter of the game any day. The recruits are adding some height to the game and they know what to expect the moment they hit the hardwood. They're going to run, run, run and then run some more.
I don't expect MU to repeat the last season. I expect them to do better.
I also like the fact that MU graduates their players now. The NCAA needs to take the scholarships away from the teams that don't have the good grad rates.

By the way KU, I don't hate you as much as I utterly and contemptibly hate the Oakland Raiders. If my Broncos were to only have 2 victories all year long and they were both against the Raiders, then I'd say it was a good year. If it was a choice of losing to the Chiefs so that Oakland wouldn't make the playoffs I'd say let's throw the game. If I could rack up the score against the silver and black by over 100 I'd say let's do it!

Haha I'm a chief and Mizzou fan. I do think ku did well this year losing a lot of their players, but everyone says this. No one mentions that if you win the national championship, you are going to recruit great players. Anderson deserves coach of the year
