for years, MU has been considered THE sleeping giant of Mizzou football across the country. That is not necessarily the view with a lot of fans. Part of that dichotomy is that outsiders know that if Mizzou would do A-B-C then they could become really good, while fans know/think that Mizzou can't or won't do A-B-C.
They'll also say that since Mizzou has never consistently won X number of games that we never can, ignoring the fact that you get to play more games these days and you get a lot more cupcakes then you used to. Among other factors.
Now there are legit factors. Starting with the Chiefs and Cards. There are VERY few big time college football programs that have pro sports in their state with the history and popularity of the Chiefs and Cardinals. You can add in the Royals and Blues too, although big time hockey fans tend to be different people than football fans.
