Trash talking between KU, Mizzou fans has started
It’s only going to get more intense over the next nine days.
With Friday’s official announcement of the exhibition men’s basketball game between Kansas and Missouri on Oct. 22 at the Sprint Center, fans of the schools have started trash talking. Actually, it began Thursday when news broke that the schools were talking about playing the game.
Naturally, the number of comments picked up Friday. Here is a sample of what fans are saying:
Can’t wait for Mizzou to beat the hell out of kansas.

It's funny how mizzou fans are cheering for Michael Porter, instead of mizzou, to beat Kansas. Then again, it makes sense. I keep hearing about how good their football team is this year, it would make sense not to know who else played on their basketball "team"

I never thought I’d see a Mizzou-kansas game during my college career. I love this rivalry, and I will always hate kansas. #MIZ #FightTiger https://t.co/as5wQmyTE3

So KU gets to throttle Mizzou in hoops again after all, and it’s for a good cause. #RockChalk #KUBBall
