We d lost to OU in a close game earlier but OU dominated the Championship Game. KU was pushed past Mizzou into the Orange Bowl because we had one more loss to OU than everyone else. Mangino is fired after the following season and my KU buddies had no appreciation of what he had done with that program.
That year, you were cursed if you were #2. Loved when my Cats upset Oregon, I was at that game. Also the year a 2 loss team for the first time in the BCS era (and only time) wins the NC
As I rewatch this game so many years later I have come to a few conclusions. Kansas was not ready for the spotlight in primetime and didn't know how to harness the hype as #2 or Todd Reesing threw the game.
If Kansas would of played deep kickoff with no return with 2 mins left, they would of had the ball on their 40 with 19 sec to go. Know when to play for an inside vs not. Kansas never recovered from this season.
@@Nanu67-e9jlmao get over it. The Missouri Tigers fucking destroyed your little chickens in the only football game that’s ever mattered at kU. Fucking deal with it
Yes. Missouri lost the title game, and had to settle for the cotton bowl. Oklahoma went to the fiesta bowl. Kansas then went to the Orange bowl. The only good thing was that Kansas won the orange bowl, Missouri won the cotton bowl, and OU lost as they got blown out in the Fiesta Bowl.
That's best year Kansas football has ever had. They just got beat by a better Missouri team. I went to Mizzou. True Son. I can also admit when an arch rival was pretty damn good.
Overall, Kansas was a better team top to bottom. They just fell behind early and missed key field goals that forced them into that final safety. Missouri was absolutely slaughtered by Oklahoma twice while Kansas managed to beat a Virginia Tech team that was equal to or greater than Oklahoma was.
Kansas wanted to lose and take the bye to watch Missouri be slaughtered by OU again. Kansas still got a bcs bid and Missouri didn't. Isn't that hilarious.
By like 40 points. Seeing these kU revisionists say stupid things like “KU had a better defense than Mizzou” is infuriating. kU was the benefactor of a Charmin-soft schedule that year. Didn’t play OU, UT, or TTech, the three best teams in the Big 12 South.
@@chadstearman no but they had six games against bowl-eligible teams with two more 5-7s and then beat #5 11-2 VA Tech. Missouri had an SOS of 2 and Kansas had a -1. SRS 16 vs 14. Not much of a difference in reality. Missouri also got boatraced in both their losses whereas Kansas' was by one possession when the kicker missed two kicks.
You know what's crazy Kansas would have won this game probably if it was played in Lawrence like it was originally scheduled to be.. Kansas legit could have won the national title that year.. moving this game to Kansas City Missouri was a mistake on their part.. moving this game to Kansas City actually put Kansas in a disadvantage.. this is why college football games should only be played on campuses..
Mizzou was so much better that kU. OU would have beaten you by 30+. You were undefeated because of your Charmin-soft schedule in 2007. No Texas, No OU, or TTech, the top 3 teams in the South that year. Mizzou was the only team in the nation in 2007 to beat 2 BCS teams: kU and Illinois.
@@chadstearman Kansas dominated Virginia Tech, who was a better team than Oklahoma. Misery got slaughtered twice. Kansas missed two field goals and turned the ball over multiple times and still had a chance to win the game, even if the odds were slim.
@@borbafatt 07 VT better than OU….🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. In no universe is that close to true or debatable. kU was a product of their cupcake schedule (not their fault, you play who you play), but they avoided the 3 best teams from the South and backed into a undeserved BCS game. It is what it is. Plus, the Mizzou/kU game wasn’t anywhere as close as the final score indicated.
@@chadstearman Oklahoma got steamrolled by WV…and the game literally goes into OT if Kansas doesn’t miss two field goals. Kansas came out slow and sluggish. Misery took advantage. Kansas rallied back. If they played 10 times that year it’s likely 5-5.
Kansas didn't even make it to the conference championship game...Missouri was the team that had the shot at the national title, finishing the season ranked #1 in the country.
Kansas only missed it because they lost to Missouri. Also Kansas had a legitimate shot at the national title because they very easily could’ve beaten Missouri if they didn’t have such a slow start or if they had just a few more seconds on the clock on their final drive. Missouri on the other hand was absolutely destroyed by Oklahoma in the big 12 championship so they were never really close.
@@borbafatt You know what's crazy Kansas would have won this game probably if it was played in Lawrence like it was originally scheduled to be..

It’s hard to say. Kansas was definitely much better defensively than Missouri was and Missouri‘s big problem in the big 12 championship game was they couldn’t stop Oklahoma from scoring. While Kansas likely would not have beaten Oklahoma it for sure would’ve been a much better game.
@@borbafattMizzou’s D was SOO much better than kU. Not even close. OU would have beaten kU by 40. Easy. Mizzou just foolish let their foot off the gas in the second half of this game.
@@chadstearman Kansas defense had two future nfl Hall of Famer’s on it. Kansas sluggish in the first half, and had nothing to do with Mizzou taking the foot off the gas. If you think that either of those teams would ever let their foot off the gas in that game then you don’t know the rivalry.
It’s funny that they are basically two realities. One where Kansas wins this game, potentially beats Oklahoma, and then has a very winnibal game against a mediocre Ohio State and wins the national championship using that to springboard into a football powerhouse. Or they lose this game, get called a fluke by everybody, struggle with injuries and upsets the next couple years, have their coach resign in shame over abuse allegations that likely would’ve been overlooked if the team had won a national championship, and fall into complete mediocrity for the next decade plus. We got the second one.

This game did NOT cost kansas a chance at a national championship. They never had a shot at the national championship. They would have been absolutely destroyed by Oklahoma in the Big12 championship game. The only reason they were undefeated at that point is because they played the 3 worst teams from the south that year vs Mizzou playing 2 of the best 3.
@@MizzouAntler dude like seriously didn't KU finish #1 in the AP poll after they beat Virginia Tech. Kansas played there worst game of the season against Missouri.
@@MizzouAntler and plus it's just opinion you can't just say a team is better than they other just because that other team beat them your dumb. Earth is proven round. But it's my opinion Kansas was better than Missouri. Just like how it's your opinion that Missouri was better than Kansas there is nothing undisputed and proven about this either way.
@@Nanu67-e9j LMAO, you really got me with the "your dumb" line. I can certainly tell you attended kU. No, kU did not finish first in the AP poll that year, they finished 7th and Missouri finished 4th. Since you apparently are kU-educated I will help you out with the math. That is 3 spots behind Mizzou. Not that it matters anyway, anyone with half a brain could see Mizzou was the far-superior team that year and skated by with literally the easiest schedule in the big 12 that year and possibly in the history of the conference to that point. The only reason it ever looked like they had a chance in that game was because Gary Pinkel was notorious for going into run-the-clock mode way too earlier in games because he didn't like to run up the score. If Missouri and kU play 10 times that season, Mizzou MAYBE loses one (but I doubt it). They were clearly the better team and everyone who isn't a kU fan knows it. Feel free to keep clown-suiting yourself though.
I didn’t know Kansas was actually good in football in 2007 lol I was a little kid so I don’t remember this. What on earth happened to them that they became a horrible program?
@@wolvesetc They were good every year under Magino. Not 12-1 but they were bowl eligible in 2005, 06, 07, 08, and one half away in 09. He was a good coach.
And Missouri didn't win a bcs bowl did they.. Missouri didn't deserve a bcs bowl at all.. losing to Oklahoma twice.. Kansas won all the games they needed to win and Missouri didn't.. Missouri not beating Oklahoma once just shows they aren't worthy of the bcs and that's Missouri fault.. Missouri just isn't good team there's no other way to put it just a bad football program..

Whatever..they would have been destroyed in big12 title game against OU the same way OU did to Mizzou TWICE!!! yall still living in LaLa land...it was all Todd Resing and a gimmick offense and the schedule they played or schedule they didn't play is more like it..no OU or Texas just pure fantasy which is why they couldn't sustain the 2 whole yrs of success..Mizzou pounded a good Arkansas team with Darren McFadden and that other dude and KU squeaked by an overrated Va tech
In my opinion this Kansas team was t good to begin with I mean their whole schedule in 2007 was against bad teams and was one of the weakest schedules for a team in a power 5 conference
It would’ve been crazy if Kansas won this game, but hey, maybe they’ll make it to the national championship this season!

Overall, Kansas was a better team top to bottom. They just fell behind early and missed key field goals that forced them into that final safety. Missouri was absolutely slaughtered by Oklahoma twice while Kansas managed to beat a Virginia Tech team that was equal to or greater than Oklahoma was.
I wish was this good now
Thing is, Missouri kinda deserved this spot, they had been doing really good up until now. They weren't really a big surprise to be this good.
A 2 loss team deserves a bcs bid over a 1 loss team what are you smoking dude?
Kansas wanted to lose and take the bye to watch Missouri be slaughtered by OU again. Kansas still got a bcs bid and Missouri didn't. Isn't that hilarious.
kansas, football and losing goes together like peanut butter, jelly and bread.
@The Archives Guy same to you
I think you know what idea I’m going to say lol
TheSportsGamer yup lol, I just wanna do it closer to when the season starts so it’ll get more views haha
Pro Sports Central Good idea
TheSportsGamer what's ur idea?
No vision @ 0:28. He should of cut back and he would of score.
Could also be titled “The Game that Cost Missouri a BCS Bowl”
Wait hold up. This ain’t basketball? Lol
Even if KU beat Mizzou they would have gotten slaughtered by OU the next week
By like 40 points. Seeing these kU revisionists say stupid things like “KU had a better defense than Mizzou” is infuriating. kU was the benefactor of a Charmin-soft schedule that year. Didn’t play OU, UT, or TTech, the three best teams in the Big 12 South.
@@chadstearman no but they had six games against bowl-eligible teams with two more 5-7s and then beat #5 11-2 VA Tech. Missouri had an SOS of 2 and Kansas had a -1. SRS 16 vs 14. Not much of a difference in reality. Missouri also got boatraced in both their losses whereas Kansas' was by one possession when the kicker missed two kicks.
@@chadstearman no but we played Virginia Tech who was a better team than all three big 12 south teams combined so I think it evens out.
Kansas 2000s=Clemson
2010s without the titles
Do the game that L.S.U choked. #8 L.S.U @ Ole Miss
Neither of these programs have been good since! Especially Kansas, but Missouri has been pretty awful especially since the move to the sec
Agreed Missouri Should Had Stayed in The Big 12!
The title throw anyone else off?
jackson forrester yea I made it a little wordy lol
Kansas was actually good at one point?
Pitt beating WVU is still better
The Game That Cost TCU A Playoff Spot in 2014
KU had all of those turnovers and still had a chance to win.
You know what's crazy Kansas would have won this game probably if it was played in Lawrence like it was originally scheduled to be.. Kansas legit could have won the national title that year.. moving this game to Kansas City Missouri was a mistake on their part.. moving this game to Kansas City actually put Kansas in a disadvantage.. this is why college football games should only be played on campuses..
Mizzou was so much better that kU. OU would have beaten you by 30+. You were undefeated because of your Charmin-soft schedule in 2007. No Texas, No OU, or TTech, the top 3 teams in the South that year.
Mizzou was the only team in the nation in 2007 to beat 2 BCS teams: kU and Illinois.
@@chadstearman Kansas dominated Virginia Tech, who was a better team than Oklahoma. Misery got slaughtered twice. Kansas missed two field goals and turned the ball over multiple times and still had a chance to win the game, even if the odds were slim.
@@borbafatt 07 VT better than OU….🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. In no universe is that close to true or debatable. kU was a product of their cupcake schedule (not their fault, you play who you play), but they avoided the 3 best teams from the South and backed into a undeserved BCS game. It is what it is. Plus, the Mizzou/kU game wasn’t anywhere as close as the final score indicated.
@@chadstearman Oklahoma got steamrolled by WV…and the game literally goes into OT if Kansas doesn’t miss two field goals. Kansas came out slow and sluggish. Misery took advantage. Kansas rallied back. If they played 10 times that year it’s likely 5-5.
Do the game that cost Kansas State a shot at a National Championship. Only fair since you showed Kansas
Doomlerious 2019 that would be when we were no. 2 in 2012 and lost to Baylor
Cade Rapp boy you were number 1
Maybe sometime in the early 2000s but not 2012
I thought Kansas St was #1 when they lost to Baylor.
They were #2 look it up
Kansas didn't even make it to the conference championship game...Missouri was the team that had the shot at the national title, finishing the season ranked #1 in the country.
Kansas only missed it because they lost to Missouri. Also Kansas had a legitimate shot at the national title because they very easily could’ve beaten Missouri if they didn’t have such a slow start or if they had just a few more seconds on the clock on their final drive. Missouri on the other hand was absolutely destroyed by Oklahoma in the big 12 championship so they were never really close.
@@borbafatt You know what's crazy Kansas would have won this game probably if it was played in Lawrence like it was originally scheduled to be.. Kansas legit could have one the national title that year.. moving this game to Kansas City Missouri was a mistake on their part.. moving this game to Kansas City actually put Kansas in a disadvantage.. this is why college football games should only be played on campuses..
Mizzou and OU were tied at halftime. It wasn’t the blowout the score says it was.
If Kansas had won, they wouldn't have beaten Oklahoma the following week.
Omar Alaniz
Jacksonville state vs ole miss 2010
They still more than likely would have lost to Oklahoma in the big 12 championship. So I dont think this game was necessarily the final straw for KU.
It’s hard to say. Kansas was definitely much better defensively than Missouri was and Missouri‘s big problem in the big 12 championship game was they couldn’t stop Oklahoma from scoring. While Kansas likely would not have beaten Oklahoma it for sure would’ve been a much better game.
@@borbafattMizzou’s D was SOO much better than kU. Not even close. OU would have beaten kU by 40. Easy. Mizzou just foolish let their foot off the gas in the second half of this game.
@@chadstearman Kansas defense had two future nfl Hall of Famer’s on it. Kansas sluggish in the first half, and had nothing to do with Mizzou taking the foot off the gas. If you think that either of those teams would ever let their foot off the gas in that game then you don’t know the rivalry.
Man, the one year Kansas is probably better at football than basketball and they blow it in the big game at the end of the year. lol.
Kansas still got a bcs bid over Missouri.🤣
o how Kansas has fallen...
As a Mizzou fan Ha Ha.
Sod reesing!
frank eddy lmao that’s hilarious
Missouri athletic program = 💩
Kansas straight up beat themselves this game. What could of been
It’s funny that they are basically two realities. One where Kansas wins this game, potentially beats Oklahoma, and then has a very winnibal game against a mediocre Ohio State and wins the national championship using that to springboard into a football powerhouse. Or they lose this game, get called a fluke by everybody, struggle with injuries and upsets the next couple years, have their coach resign in shame over abuse allegations that likely would’ve been overlooked if the team had won a national championship, and fall into complete mediocrity for the next decade plus. We got the second one.
@@borbafatt You know what's crazy Kansas would have won this game probably if it was played in Lawrence like it was originally scheduled to be..

wow, what complete idiocy with these two posts! 🙄
KU beat themselves???!??? Mizzou was up three TDs and then went on cruise control. 😂😂😂
Wasn’t this the game where they had 5th down?
VortexFX Missouri vs Nebraska 1997
It was vs Colorado @ Missouri.
Not Nebraska.
1990 Colorado at Missouri. The north end zone
This game did NOT cost kansas a chance at a national championship. They never had a shot at the national championship. They would have been absolutely destroyed by Oklahoma in the Big12 championship game. The only reason they were undefeated at that point is because they played the 3 worst teams from the south that year vs Mizzou playing 2 of the best 3.
@@Nanu67-e9j People also think the earth is flat... You are about as correct as they are.
@@MizzouAntler dude like seriously didn't KU finish #1 in the AP poll after they beat Virginia Tech. Kansas played there worst game of the season against Missouri.
@@MizzouAntler and plus it's just opinion you can't just say a team is better than they other just because that other team beat them your dumb. Earth is proven round. But it's my opinion Kansas was better than Missouri. Just like how it's your opinion that Missouri was better than Kansas there is nothing undisputed and proven about this either way.
@@MizzouAntler and plus I don't understand why your trying to force people to believe in false information even it can't be proven.
@@Nanu67-e9j LMAO, you really got me with the "your dumb" line. I can certainly tell you attended kU. No, kU did not finish first in the AP poll that year, they finished 7th and Missouri finished 4th. Since you apparently are kU-educated I will help you out with the math. That is 3 spots behind Mizzou. Not that it matters anyway, anyone with half a brain could see Mizzou was the far-superior team that year and skated by with literally the easiest schedule in the big 12 that year and possibly in the history of the conference to that point. The only reason it ever looked like they had a chance in that game was because Gary Pinkel was notorious for going into run-the-clock mode way too earlier in games because he didn't like to run up the score. If Missouri and kU play 10 times that season, Mizzou MAYBE loses one (but I doubt it). They were clearly the better team and everyone who isn't a kU fan knows it. Feel free to keep clown-suiting yourself though.
It was a bad season for #2. Or potential #2 in WVU 's case!
Not likely they would beat Oklahoma even if they did win this game. KU didn't play anyone that year. The one good team they played they lost.
Charmin-soft schedule
I didn’t know Kansas was actually good in football in 2007 lol I was a little kid so I don’t remember this. What on earth happened to them that they became a horrible program?
They were always bad dude. This was a crazy fluke year
@@wolvesetc They were good every year under Magino. Not 12-1 but they were bowl eligible in 2005, 06, 07, 08, and one half away in 09. He was a good coach.
Kansas was good once?
Well isn’t that just too bad
Kansas was way overrated that year. They played several bad teams.
Would've have mattered had they won that game OU would've whooped em anyway they were too good at the end of the season!
They weren’t beating Oklahoma in the Big 12 Championship
The year Texas cost Ohio State a spot in the National championship
That was 2005. Ohio State played for the NC in 2007.
The best team they will ever have and our guys still kicked their ass.
And Missouri didn't win a bcs bowl did they.. Missouri didn't deserve a bcs bowl at all.. losing to Oklahoma twice.. Kansas won all the games they needed to win and Missouri didn't.. Missouri not beating Oklahoma once just shows they aren't worthy of the bcs and that's Missouri fault.. Missouri just isn't good team there's no other way to put it just a bad football program..
@@Nanu67-e9jBeat your chest about a meaningless BCS win against a mediocre VT team! Great job. Loser. Mizzou smoked your best team ever. Like a cheap cigar!
LSU probably wouldn't have made the national championship if Kansas would've won.
KU's Orange bowl win against Virginia Tech please? I'll subscribe if you post it, I remember watching it a decade ago.
Its only fair, this game still disappoints me
th-cam.com/video/fgBXkEVTGsc/w-d-xo.html
If this game was played in Lawrence Kansas would have won..
Of course it’s Talib running around wasting time at the end..
Mizzou needs to go back to the big 10. They'd actually have a winning season again.
we had a winning season last year but good try
Big 12* and we had a winning season last year and won the sec east two years in a row idiot..
Lol he completely forgot about that
You failed big time on this idiotic comment smh
@@WeShowYou sec east is not an accomplishment really Missouri can't win conference titles..
Whatever..they would have been destroyed in big12 title game against OU the same way OU did to Mizzou TWICE!!! yall still living in LaLa land...it was all Todd Resing and a gimmick offense and the schedule they played or schedule they didn't play is more like it..no OU or Texas just pure fantasy which is why they couldn't sustain the 2 whole yrs of success..Mizzou pounded a good Arkansas team with Darren McFadden and that other dude and KU squeaked by an overrated Va tech
In my opinion this Kansas team was t good to begin with I mean their whole schedule in 2007 was against bad teams and was one of the weakest schedules for a team in a power 5 conference
