Today we preview Week 14.
Game of the Week: #15 Kansas 34.8 (8-3) @ #9 Missouri 34.2 (10-2)
You read that right. Missouri actually wins this game more often than not (57.4% of the time), despite being outscored on average. In 2007, this was supposed to be a great game, and it was a good game. In 2008, with the Big Twelve North title and a spot in the Big Twelve Championship Game on the line, this is a great game. With the score going one way and the win percentage going the other, this is as close as we get to a toss-up. We say that Missouri moves on, loses to Oklahoma the next week (sound familiar?) but then still makes a BCS bowl.
