If Mizzou did decide to go to the B1G, who would the SEC get to replace them? If a grant of rights is as binding as everyone thinks, that removes all of the ACC, Big 12, & B1G schools as replacements. I always figured FSU wouldn't sign a GOR, so I figured they would always be around if Mizzou ever did go to the B1G. Now that they apparently have, I don't see a viable replacement for Mizzou.

If you're going to troll, at least try to make a little sense and it would help if you knew a little bit about what actually went down with the BIG.

And for those entertaining the idea that Mizzou would bolt for BIG, you clearly have no idea what actually happened with that situation. The fanbase was never excited about going to the BIG, it was the only conference entertaining expansion at the time the BIG12 was on life support... the SEC move brought overwhelming support from over 90% of the fanbase, a move is not happening.. sorry you're stuck with us.

Just banish Mississippi State to the Big East and you have 12 teams again.

Just leave the thread. You offer nothing. You're not even good at trolling in this one.

Bow out like a man.

Fan votes don't mean shite. You should be glad for that, Arkansas would have been gone lone ago.


Using the TV-markets metric, sure, Mizzou makes more sense than several current members in areas with fewer TVs.

We're here because we're batshit crazy about football, and baseball. And we used to be a contender in basketball (and will be again soon).

And because they wanted 12 for a championship game. Not because of TV sets. And all around, we're solid and GAF about the sports that the SEC GsAF about.

We put 51k fans in the stadium for our spring game, off 4-8. We put 45k last year after Petrino-gate.

Y'all are just a little different. But you guys should know...variety is the meth of life.

I hope you stay. You're fun to pick at.

They bring nothing to the conference, so we don't have to replace them with anything

You guys do seen to play well with Arkansas so there's that?

After so many years of LSU rejecting them as a Rival, I think it makes them feel special to have someone else to kick the ball too

That would be South Carolina.

The original 12th team was Texas A&M until that count Ann Richards interfered.

So we're in a forced rivalry with a school we don't care about.

If they'd have done what they were supposed to in to Big 8/SWC times, we would continue to not give a frick about them, and you SEC folk would be happy.

They're the one causing this distress.

Seriously, frick off.

Let me do my thing. The Mizzou boner can wait a few hours. I don't get these opportunities often.

Several pissing matches have been covered in this page alone. IT might be a record.
