Our rivalry with OU in the 1980's in my opinion is the greatest MU basketball rivalry. Tubbs so relished his role as an adversarial villain and his teams embodied his mindset. He is by far my favorite opposing coach and there were some tremendous matchups that came from that series.
From 1979-1990 MU and OU won 11 of the 12 Big 8 championships. Some truly great teams. From 1988-1990 OU avged > 100 ppg all three seasons.
