Default Re: Official Mizzou VS KU football thread

inteesting:

"On the day in 1991 when Kansas running back Tony Sands rushed for a then-NCAA record 396 yards against the Tigers, the announced crowd in Lawrence was 28,000, some 22,000 under capacity."


This really surprised me as I was getting the impression that this super-intense rivalry was always a sell-out and was more important than life itself in both states and has been for quite some time.

The book referenced in the article only rated it as the 21st best college-football rivalry.
