LOOK: Mizzou, Illinois fans come together for the best 'We Hate Kansas' sign
The Missouri Tigers and Illinois Fighting Illini don’t like each other, and as they take the court in St. Louis on Saturday night in the annual Braggin’ Rights game, there’s not much common ground between the schools.
However, there is one thing both schools can agree on — they flat-out don’t like the Kansas Jayhawks. The Jayhawks are Mizzou’s biggest rivals, and Illinois fans are still upset that former coach Bill Self left for Lawrence several years ago.
As you can see below, that led to a great combined “We Hate Kansas” sign made by a Mizzou fan and an Illinois fan:

Illinois has won the last five meetings between the two schools, so when the game gets going, they’ll set this newfound camaraderie aside to focus on picking up the win.
For now, though, they’re coming together to hate on the Jayhawks a little bit.
