How do A&M/Mizzou fans rate the move to the SEC two years later?

On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate the move into the SEC? (1-hate it..... 10-love it)

What do you like most and/or least about being in the SEC?

How do fans of the rest of the SEC rate the move now that they have been in the SEC for two years?

My rating..........
Texas A&M: 9 - I think the move has been a win-win for all. As an LSU fan, it just feels natural to have them in the SEC.

Mizzou: 7 - Although still doesn't feel like a "natural" fit, I was extremely impressed with what they did last year after such a rough start in football.

The Bevo 12 is a steaming dumpster fire of crap, so I give the move a 9

I think having Mizzou in the east is the reason they don't fit yet.

A&M - 0

If they stayed in the Big 12, they'd have been in the BCSNCG. Instead, they finish 4th in the West.

I want to give it a 8/10, but I'd like to see after 5 years how it looks before giving a final grade.

10 without a doubt. Never had doubts that we wouldnt fit in. None.

Lone regret is that we have dicked around playing Mizzou for the last 3 years. Both A&M and Mizzou should have been allowed to barnstorm as much as possible in order to see the other teams. Instead, there are two fan bases sick of seeing each other when there are hotter girls around, so to speak.

I'm so tired of mizzou. Literally. I think I have been as nice as I can about it. I want to visit somewhere else and actually have another teams fans come into town. Mizzou doesn't travel.

9/10. That 1 point is reserved for having to play fat Bert. Hate that we have to be in the same stadium as that fat f***.

A&M - 10. Seems like they've always been in the SEC.

Mizzou - 8. 9 if they were in the West, 10 if a rivalry with Arky kicks in.

9.5, literally the only downside is that we probably would have played for a national title in 2012 had we stayed in the Big XII with Sumlin.

Wow...I was hoping to get a few responses from Arky fans. I would think they are the least happy about the expansion.

A&M and Mizzou have both overshadowed them these past two years.

Over an undefeated Bama and Notre Dame?

ESPN would have vetoed us Auburn-style.

No we wouldn't have. Undefeated Bama and ND would have gone before us.

Not to mention if we stay in the big12, Sherman is still coach, and he wasn't about to start Johnny Manziel over Showers. Moot point, tbh.

I give the move a 10/10. No regrets or reservations whatsoever.

We probably would have won the Big Whatever, but we weren't jumping Alabama and Notre Dame. Even then, I don't give a shite. This was the right move long term and in the short term it's been a fun ride.

And also 5th/6th overall in the country.

9. Football experience has been amazing. Our basketball has been a little disappointing, more of Mizzou's fault than SEC. SEC Network kills anything the b12 ever had. Stadium expansion and big boy TV revenue coming down the pipe.

Think it has been a great move for both schools. Glad to have them in the SEC.

We travel, just not to college station, most people I know don't see A&M as a game to go to. I mean up until recently you guys had been terrible.
