A&M offers a presence in Texas and solid competition while not being too much of a threat.
Mizzou will be a very good program for the Big Ten one day

6-7. They are solid additions in my book. Much better than the additions made by the big 12 and the soon to be additions to the B1G, lol! And for that matter the the PAC 12.

8-9 if I were to answer assuming expanding to 14 was an absolute necessity.
A 0 if staying at 12 is the alternative.
The 14 team league is a massive cluster-F and has just been addition for addition's sake.

Well, since I've always loved the SEC especially when I lived in GA as a kid. I'd give MU a 10 spot, and aTm as well.
Compared to the rest of the conference movement it seems like a no brainer.
SEC not only won that round but may have stopped everyone in their tracks.

Better than I expected.
I like the two new teams.

The correct answer is 10. The reality is that money is driving the ship, and with that in mind it is a home run. It is all about the cable money and the SEC network "in market" footprint greatly expanded. If you don't think that was a huge consideration for all parties, you haven't been paying attention. The footprint's population increased by 50% while only adding 2 schools.
That being said... it only works if the programming is compelling and those markets can truly be delivered by having energized fanbases and interest. It seems like both have been a success. So, mo money for all the schools. Homerun.

I would have to give the Texas A&M T-Sipin Aggys a 7 and the Mizoo Tigrs a 8. The Aggys should dominate the Soutwest Confrence for yrs and the Mizoo Tiggers will roll the Big Ten

Unbelievable what Mizzu did this year playing for the Championship there second year in. They are an impressive Football team and very strong in BBall as well. A great addition in my opinion. A&M finishing middle of the pack in the west each year was nice too. Tough conference.

SEC had to expand to keep up with the Jones and it could not have picked two better schools for TV market and the teams themselves. Both have made the conference more exciting and entertaining. Aggies are fricking weird but it makes them an easy and fun target to frick with.

I simply look at it with the goal in mind and that is to raise revenue from your additions. I would give it an 8. I would give it a 10 but Mizzou had a bad year last year. You all have done well to capture viewer interest in Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, KC, and St Louis. Mo Money for all!

Well, until we each teach our MILFs how to properly respond in the face of a significant loss, I'm not 100% sure we've actually arrived.

Both have been good additions. In a few more years, hardly anyone will remember that they were the new kids on the block.

Mizzou has had a solid team for awhile now, and the Aggies, has had potential for a long time. They just needed to get out of the Longhorns' shadow. Plus, helps Bama having the Aggies here. They will help raid Louisiana some now for recruits.
