    Missouri thinks they're special?

    You obviously have never spoken to a Mizzou fan
    I know an alumnus. I think she's into the St. Louis Cardinals. I've never heard her mention Misery sports.

    Was having an interesting conversation with a friend of mine.

    This was my list

    UCLA
    Oregon
    Iowa
    Missouri
    Florida
    Texas A&M
    Michigan State

    Maybe Baylor

    One of these is not like the others.

    3 national titles in the past 30 years is pretty damn special. Only topped by Bammer in that stretch.
    Michigan State boasts 6 national championships. Doesn't mean they don't view themselves in an overrated light.
    And they are all 1966 and prior. And 4 of the 6 are UW 1960 style “claimed” natties.

    Natties when all of here were alive just mean more.

    Michigan

    One natty since the 40s

    1 half - Oregon fan
    Let’s make it 1 1/2 in 2 weeks.
    Oregon still wins with 15 off season championships.

    Dan Devine went from ASU to Missouri in the late 50s. Had some success but Oklahoma and Nebraska ran the Big 8. Missouri won a couple in the 60s

    One of 17 teams to claim the 1960 natty

    Devine left Missouri for Notre Dame where he won a natty with Joe Montana

    Until Pinkel showed up that was it. Pinkel was decent at best

    Real Dawg fans wanted Pinkel bad back 20-25 years ago.
