We couldn't care less what Missouri wants. If in fact they want to play us, it will be strictly determined if we want to. It will not be determined by other people, because I'll be honest, the majority of Kansas fans don't give a flip about playing Missouri."   - Bill Self

Close loss won't change opinions on KU, Turner Gill | KUsports.com
This is what many of us have been saying since Saturday afternoon. I think Keegan is on the right track.

Kansas loses bowl carrot | KUsports.com

Mizzou Departs

Missouri to SEC a done deal | KUsports.com
New of the day on Sunday. Well second place to Chris Harris once again dominating the day for the Broncos on the defensive side of the ball.

Century-old Kansas-Missouri rivalry in serious jeopardy -- college basketball - ESPN
Jason King who made his mark covering Kansas basketball and the border war talks about the loss of a 104 year 265 game rivalry on the hardwood. Those years spent clamoring for this one to receive Duke v UNC type respect are now most likely never to return. You can't have Duke UNC without a conference title or implications on the line.

With Missouri headed to SEC, Kansas already moving on | Campus Corner
A quick review of the KU administrations statements on the MU move. It's the right call, but I guess I do think that outwardly expressing that we will not agree to play them I think we're just giving Mizzou the easy out. Now all they have to do is sit back and say "hey we wanted to play but they didn't".

Former Blue Springs coach: Area kids will continue to play at MU - KansasCity.com
An interesting take on Missouri recruiting. The Texas effect is probably the one that most seem to feel Mizzou will miss most. Surely plenty more to come on Mizzou, Mizzou v KU and what it means for Kansas City in the coming days.

Bad move, Mizzou | KUsports.com
Keegan's take on the Mizzou move.

Joe Paterno of Penn State Nittany Lions says ,'If true, we were all fooled' - ESPN
Joe Paterno says he did what he felt was right concerning a former coach who stands accused of sexually assaulting eight boys. I guess reporting it to the police never seemed appropriate?
