All come before college sports.
Then to make matters worse the two major cities straddle state lines which means that a large portion of both populations are not Mizzou fans.
It would really help if basketball could return to the form it had from the 90’s to the early 00’s. Good football is great but both cities have divided interest during FB season. Basketball is a relatively dead time for KC and STL and if the team could get good again it would energize the state.
