As football losses mount, debate begins: Who would win if Mizzou played KU?
These are dark days for football at Kansas and Missouri.
The Jayhawks fell to 0-7 (and were officially eliminated from bowl contention) with a 58-10 loss at Oklahoma State.
The Tigers dropped to 4-4 and were held without a touchdown for the third straight game in a 10-3 loss at Vanderbilt.
That set off fans on both sides. And it started a small, but interesting discussion: Who would win if these teams played?
#kufball you should probably go ahead and schedule #MIZZOU so you get that one win. pic.twitter.com/3Yl1B2mQxn

— Brian Harms (@HarmsBrian) October 25, 2015As of right now KU Football might have the best offense out of KSU Mizzou and the Chiefs..... #wow
— T Schnak (@tschnak) October 25, 2015@TJFsports How many games have they won?
— Connie Engle (@cengle54) October 25, 2015Poked fun at KU Fooball a while back. They would walk over MU now #Mizzou
— SKF (@ScottFrame1) October 24, 2015Mizzou is just trying to convince KU to play us next year.
— Dylan Kist (@DJ_Kist) October 24, 2015Maybe if Mizzou played kU this year it would be a good game #MIZvsVANDY
— Ethan Leech (@ethanl28) October 24, 2015I used to say that ku would give Mizzou a game, jokingly... But i strongly believe it now.
— Zack Jahner (@ZackJahner) October 24, 2015Hypothetical: would this Mizzou offense be able to win against kU?
— Harrison Milfeld (@hmilfeld) October 24, 2015Guys ku would beat mizzou. Only because they would somehow score 7 points.
— Tim Supplee (@TSupp_19) October 24, 2015Mizzou football is still better than Kansas, right?
— Kyle Norris (@knor_12) October 24, 2015This has to be the worst offense in college football. Yes, including kansas. #mizzou
— Ernie W. Webb III (@Ernie_Webb_3) October 24, 2015This was an interesting (although obviously skewed) chart for those of you who remember the old days of the Big 12:
If only the Big 12 North still existed today: Mizzou 4-4 K-State 3-4 Colorado 3-4 Nebraska 3-5 Iowa State 2-5 KU 0-7
