You never know what will open that door. For Arkansas, believe it or not, it was probably our second most heated rival, Ole Miss. They went to bat for us and while we might have gotten in without them it sure smoothed things out.

The SEC had been approaching Missouri once every decade or two going back to the 1940's at least. There was an article in the STLPD in 1991-ish on it.

Only the best and brightest go to that prestigious institution, also known as Harvard of Missouri.

But for real, did he actually go there? I never heard that name.
