Michigan remains in third place under this scenario and still doesn't measure up to Mizzou by your own definition of what is considered current. My argument holds up whether it's three years (the measure I used) or five years (the measure you preferred).
Football records last five years
OSU 54-10
Mizzou 45-21
Michigan 38-27
Basketball records last five years
OSU 136-42
Mizzou 100-62
Michigan 88-77

Actually, it shows OSU is much stronger than your original argument gave them credit for. Your earlier numbers had MU and OSU nearly equal. Five years spells a different picture. I guess I'm not sure why you're comparing MU to Michigan since they've really not had much success recently. What was your reasoning for picking Michigan in the first place? Both football and basketball are in the middle of fairly new coaching regimes so it's kind of like comparing MU to Colorado.
