The Tigers had chipped away at KU’s 15-point lead with a touchdown, safety and field goal in reasonably quick succession, but ...
Columbia, Mo. — Nursing a 31-28 lead, the Kansas football team had Missouri backed up at third-and-17 after a sack by Leroy Harris III with just under seven minutes remaining in Saturday afternoon’s Border War.

Keeping in mind that it’s been 13 years since Kansas and Missouri last played, some sort of refresher on the Tigers might be necessary. Not so much a refresher about the University of Missouri in a broad sense, or the history between KU and MU — which KU fans are surely well acquainted with by this point in the Border War game week, if they weren’t already long beforehand — but about the Tigers’ ...
