What are your thoughts on the six expansion teams? We know most would have preferred the SEC stayed at 10 teams, but here we are.

1. Arkansas
2. South Carolina
3. Missouri
4. Texas A&M
5. Oklahoma
6. Texas

We can all talk shite about them, but they are solid additions.

Arkansas being my favorite of the bunch.

I've had the same amount of worries about the expansion teams as the expansion teams have conference football championships

Apparently LSU has a losing record to Missouri. I’d be worried.

I have a feeling the team that has been to the most conference championships will be the least favorite.


Wonder why?

Five outta six are their State's Flagship Institutions of Higher Learning.

Is there another conference that can boast as many Flagship Universities in their conference?

We've got Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas.

12 of 16.

Non flagships ... Auburn, Vandy, Miss State, A&M.

1. Arkansas -- good fans, glad to have them.
2. South Carolina -- Spurrier made them legit.
3. Missouri -- They're in the conference, really?
4. Texas A&M -- LSU's ghey cousin from eTx.
5. Oklahoma -- Bring that wagon to Jordan-Hare, I'd like to see it.
6. Texas -- Meh, even Vandy used to be good once upon a time.

Arkansas and USC might as well be original members to people my age.

Well rounded athletically. Combined with the original 10, we should dominate almost every playoff in every sport.

I just want to chime in and say Mizzou can frick off.
There is nothing "southern," much less "southeastern" about Columbia, Missouri, which is closer to Lawrence, KS, Manhattan, KS, Ames, IA, and Champaign, IL, than it is to Fayetteville. It's a midwestern, "Great Plains" school and they need to frick off.

Furthermore, Mizzou is not and has never been the biggest draw in their state. You can't say that about any other SEC school. They're simply not a cultural fit and, to be honest, their addition to this conference represents everything wrong with college athletics: forsaking tradition for the potential to make money.

Missouri has not been a solid addition unless you are a good team looking for an automatic win. After their first couple years in the SEC they have been bad. Playing baseball in Missouri to start the season in February and March time frame is absolutely brutal weather wise if you have to play there.
