Missouri Tigers Out of BCS PictureLots of disappointed fans in Missouri Sunday evening as the Missouri Tigers were not included in the BCS picture. Kansas will be despite the fact that Missouri had beaten them.
Missouri’s run as the nation’s best football team lasted a week; its bid for the BCS championship crashed inside the Alamodome in the Big 12 title game.
The Tigers, for the second time this season, ran into a better team, a more mature program and arguably the country’s best coach, Big Game Bob Stoops.
Oklahoma 38, Missouri 17.
The Tigers were the national team of the week, on the cover of Sports Illustrated and in all conversations about the national championship and Heisman Trophy at one point.
