MU vs ku Highlights 1969

[werderwayne]

This was terrific! I'd love to watch game films of all these games. Highlights don't always give the feel of the game.

[bisquik3006]

Man, you guys rocked us that year. I do hate the gay ass tigers, but in my book this is the BEST rivalry in college football. Pure hatred for the other side, I love it.

M-I-Z! FUCK K U!

This game was played at Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, KS. 1969 was the final year that the stadium had a grass field. In 1970, the Jayhawks went to artificial turf, and have had several surfaces. In 2009, a FieldTurf surface will replace the AstroPlay surface that was in place on Kevisto Field (named for a prominent KU donor in 2006) since 2001.

Irah,Irach,Irabu back to pass,... deep for Mel Gray, it might be ,it could be ,it issssss! touchdown Tigers. R.I. P. Mr Caray, I miss you.

[elbrutha09]

why do you say that even though Kansas has won 55 games against Missouri and they have only one 53

[GoHuskies58]

That film is so cool. MU kicked ass even back then. And KU sucked ass even back then. I Love how dan returnded half the peace sign.

[14691]

This is the game when Coach Fam showed Missouri coach Dan Devine a peace sign, and Devine responded with his middle finger. Typical Missouri sportsmanship.

[butthullmnu92]

screw kay u

[mojoMitch7]

LOL, well, actually, it was supposedly Pepper Rodgers, the ku coach at the time, who flashed the peace sign, and Dan returned half of it. Good story, but something Ol' Pepper made up. Pretty funny though! Don Fambrough was a long-time ku assistant, and became head coach in the 70s, on two different occasions, as I recall. I think Fambrough is still living. If so, he's in his 80s.

If ku ever defeats oklahoma, let me know. I'll need to find out how much the refs got payed

[dhartley987]

mizzou-69

kansas-21

Has Harry Caray done NFL football? If he didn't, that's a big loss in terms of NFL announcers.

Do you kiss your mother with that mouth? Don't answer that.

Who cares about the bowl game. You played in a half filled cavern. You are basing your chest thumping on what 5 old men in orange jackets decided in some smoky room in Southern Florida. Congrats. I will take our season everyday over yours.

We have a Cotton Bowl trophy, a Big XII North trophy and the Lamar Hunt trophy. We also finished number four in the polls.

Sorry, beaker.

[jarell2289]

Big 12 north trophy??!! Congrats, you were better than 5 teams at a given time. The big 12 north is nothing. You guys didnt win a conference title. You lost twice to the same team. Also do you or have you ever attended Missouri? Well in the mean while youll be thinking of something to write and ill be in San Antonio cause our program is good at both of our mens major sports.

[dhartley987]

congratz jarell we all know how much you contributed to your programs succesS

ha ha you guys beat us this year, but i must say i had a great time in miami. how was the cotton bowl? go hawks!!

[fiamike]

All the BCS bluster sounds hollow at this point, doesn't it? Mizzou has scoreboard. We beat KU, we won the North, and we finished 4th in the nation above both OU and KU.

[jarell2289]

Ha Ha you did beat us then we look at all of the bcs games you have been to not to mention won. 0

[fiamike]

Thanks for once again showing why open enrollment in Kansas universities doesn't work. It's nice to know that the Orange Bowl means more to you than the Big 12 North title and an end-of-season top five national ranking. It looks like we're both happy. See you in KC in the fall...or not. Considering KU fans sold their tickets by the hundreds to MU fans last year, I can only imagine what it will be like this year.

[pastordaveburgess]

So you were the Jayhawk fan that went?!? I was wondering who that was. It was great seeing the entire upper deck empty at the game.

BTW, congrats on your dream season...which wouldn't be complete without a smack down from your archrival.

Scoreboard Squawk!

[mizzfan]

my dad played in 1969...how can i get a copy of the film???

[etr040764]

mojoMitch, That video is from the last time Mizzou won a conference title in 1969! You got any more Mizzou videos from the 60's & 70's?

[mojoMitch7]

I'm Mitch's Dad and I posted the video (I should get my own account). I have the 1969 highlight film on video as well as some very old footage from 1938-40 when Mitch's Grampa (my Dad) played at Mizzou. He also was an assistant coach at Mizzou from 1947-1985. Glad you enjoyed it!

[etramway]

go mizzou!

[zachfoerstel]

is that harry caray announcing this?

[mojoMitch7]

Yes, indeed that was Harry! He used to do the Mizzou football play-by-play for KMOX in St. Louis, along with Jack Buck.

[thiel82]

Nice work Mitch. I'm going to post it on my Mizzou blog.

[br549mark]

Well, Kansas still sucks. And they'll find out how much on 11/24. Go Mizzou!
