#2 KU vs #3 MU - Border War 2007

Elspode · 11-24-2007, 06:51 PM

Ten minutes to game time - the biggest football game in Kansas City since the Chiefs beat the Vikes in the 1970 Superbowl. 80,000 fans are expected at Arrowhead Stadium, and LJ - I'll bet they will be beating off on the scoreboard, no matter who wins. This is expected to be the largest crowd in Arrowhead history, as most of the 90,000 joint alums of the two schools who live in the KC Metro cram themselves in after an afternoon of tailgating and shit talking - leaving an estimated 10 to 20,000 of their BBQ'ing compatriots in the parking lots to absorb the energy as it drifts out of Arrowhead's glorious arching bowl.

With #1 LSU losing today, the winner of this game is a shoo-in for half of the BCS game. Not only is this the biggest college football game of the year nationwide, it is the biggest game, perhaps ever, in KC history.

KU are mere 3 point favorites. I have my wood stove stoked, leftover turkey and spuds in the microwave, and about a gallon of leftover wine rapidly finding its way down my gullet.

I hope you all enjoy this one as much as we will here in KC.
