It won't really matter because we will beat MU.
show me the money.
Cyclist has an inferiority complex.
1. If Kansas didn't move the game back to Nov. 24th, we would have played Mizzou the week before K-State. Therefore, no bye week, no national television, and possibly no undefeated record and high amounts of confidence heading into the K-State game.

BMW, I usually lay off of you because of the abuse you get on this board, but you have to be retarded to think that playing in K.C. has more benefit to the program in the long run than having the game in Lawrence. We could have had Gameday as fatty said, the stadium would be the loudest it's possibly ever been, and the slavers have a history of pissing down their legs in Lawrence. The chances of winning this game would have gone up exponentially if the game had been in Lawrence, instead we may have sold out a chance to go to the B12 CCG and possibly the national title, all because Lew wanted an extra $1 million. We'll get a lot more than that if we make a BCS game, which isn't guaranteed if we lose to the slavers, Texas might still jump us. Beating Missouri would have helped recruiting a hell of a lot more than losing on a neutral field. Next year does not matter right now, as this game will undoubtedly have more importance to the direction of the whole program than next year.
Lew didn't anticipate us being this good at the end of the season, which is understandable since nobody did, but at this point the risk is not worth the potential reward.

So you think just because the game isn't at Memorial Stadium that Kansas is going to lose???
I don't know if you're the type of fan that travels to games away from Lawrence, but I do, and I've seen Kansas play on the road for the first time ever b/c we are winning this season. If you think these guys are just going to fold because there's a relatively neutral crowd than you know nothing about this team.
Another thing that I pointed out is that the Mizzou came would have preceeded the K-State game! No bye week, possibly no undefeated record, no national television, no Big 12 title implications, etc. You've really got to be in denial to say that the scenarios would have been the same had Kansas played Mizzou on Oct. 7th, when the game was originally scheduled. Kansas might not even be in this position if we had lost to Mizzou right at the beginning of the season. No Kendrick Harper in there to help out with the talented Mizzou receiving corps. Think about that.
Also, I don't hear Oklahoma/Texas fans complaining about the Red River Shootout being at the Cotton Bowl. If Kansas wants to move up in the college football world then we need to market ourselves, and a good way to do that is by playing games like we'll have on Nov. 24th. Also, where is the rule that says College Gameday has to be held at a college stadium?

the game was going to be during thanksgiving whether or not the game was moved to KC.
Sheesh.

MU has won 1 time in the last 8 trips to Lawrence, now they get 35,000 of their own fans to cheer them on in ku's biggest "home" game maybe EVER.
Cap . . . will you be flying into KC on your private jet??

Why are you so concerned? Don't you have your own team to worry about?
That's been over for quite a while now.You'd be right. I'm super jealous. You really have no idea.
It seems to me like you K-State fans are all just jealous that Kansas is getting all this national recognition.
It's not moot.I'm confused on the amount of tickets that Mizzou got. I was under the impression that ku got well over the majority of the tickets. Not just a little over half..
But you made me think of something else. It's Mangino's ultimatum year, and Lew Perkins moves a key game out of Lawrence to KC and invites 35,000 MU fans to attend. Hmmm . . .
I could care less.
Posting more pictures or making fun of him for saying "he could care less" when it should be "he couldn't care less"?I could care less.
LOL. I'm not going to be mean. Don't do it fatty, don't do it.
Oh. Sorry I brought it up. I'm not trying to start another thread that will end up eviscerating you. And yes, I'm jealous of your team.

That guy dosent know what he is talking about. Mizzou only got 20,000 tickets to give to their fans. Assume that half of the 15,000 Chiefs fans will be rooting for Mizzou and their will be around 27,500 Mizzou fans, the rest Jayhawks. With the closed in stadium and about the same number of ku fans that would of been in Memorial Stadium, we will actually be significantly louder than we would of been in Lawrence, where there is a huge track between the fans and the game.
Any of you clowns ever watch college football besides the team you support. Schools play on neutral fields almost weekly, quit acting like this is some crazy idea that somebody just came up with. The greatest rivalry in college football perhaps, Alabama/Auburn was played in Birmingham for over 50 years. If you guys have a problem with a neurtral field than college football isnt for you. Go check out your local middle school or something.
Also, if we want to win the north division we shouldnt mind playing any of our north division rivals on a field where we will have 2/3 of the fans in attendance. Championship teams win anywhere. home, road, or neutral dosent matter. So quit whining and have faith in your undefeated team.
