On a positive note for Missouri fans, Jonesboro on gameday is similar to Columbia on a gameday. There are no hot women, no good BBQ, and no good bars for postgame
To RC:
30,000, 23,000... When you're talking about a SEC school, what's the difference? If you're an AD from a SEC school, the last thing you want to do is schedule a road game with a school that has such a low seating capacity. You're leaving too much money on the table. This is why I believe Missouri will eventually buy-out of the contract when the time comes for the Tigers to play at Arkansas State.

Did you not see the list of schools Mizzou has traveled too recently?
Besides the sunbelt has a "pact" about being a pay-for-play conference, if Mizzou tries to buyout the return trip after playing them at home, they can forget about scheduling the rest of the conference members in the non-con in future years for a while.

Hopefully the SEC buys Missouri out of this conference
I say cut our losses. Sunk costs are sunk

7k seats is a big difference once you start counting $$$. Never mind the only other stadium at 20k I can think of in Texas is the one in Frisco and thats not really a HS stadium anyway since its really an MLS stadium for FC Dallas.
and b/c you dont know the details of the deal its pretty silly to say Mizzou is for sure going to buy out. I doubt we buy out of the second SMU return trip in two years and that stadium seats just 32k officially and at least 36k once they add extra seating.
My bet is that Mizzou gave them a home and home that will essentially make the game free for them if they return. Kind of how like La Tech actually paid us to play in Shreveport and will get that money right back when they return to Kyle in 2016.
