It depends what we're talking about.
Entire state? Obviously South Carolina is the best fit. Arkansas second. The rest may have bits and pieces that fit the SEC footprint. Southeastern Missouri, for example, is very, very southern and those of you who dispute that have simply never been there. But I wouldn't dare call Kansas City southern.
The college town? Fayetteville and Columbia, MO most resemble the core SEC college towns.
The Universities themselves? South Carolina again clocks in first. Arkansas second. Missouri third. Oklahoma fourth. Texas schools are just their own damn thing. They don't fit in anywhere.
The fan support/love for the football programs? South Carolina first. Oklahoma second. Texas A&M third. Texas fourth. Arkansas fifth. Mizzou a distant sixth.
