If they joined the Big 10, perhaps they could finally -- FINALLY -- beat the Nebraska Cornhuskers! (how sad is that!).

With talk of them possibly getting an invite to the SEC (ok w/me), would the Big 10 be better for them?

A good read...... LINK

I think it would be great if they go to the Big10.

Definitely don’t want them in the SEC.

They are NOT a SEC school. I don't know why people come up with crazy notions. He'll, Mizzou ain't a Southern school. They are both Midwestern, big10 schools.

For the SEC, it's all about TV market money.

Kansas only has one TV market in the top100, so I doubt the SEC goes there.

If the SEC expands, I think it will be to Virginia and North Carolina to pick up their TV markets.

Here's a list of top 100 TV markets broken down by existing SEC markets, the one top 100 Kansas market, and the top 100 markets in Virginia and North Carolina. BIG difference in eyeballs between them.

Also, if I accidentally left out any top 100 markets, please add them in the replies.

The Big10 should take them and Mizzou both to reunite the rivals for the 23 people who care.

I don't think the big ten will take kansas. If the big ten were to expand there going to target southern states growing in population like florida, north carolina, virginia, or georgia.

They’d really stick it to their little brother if they went to the Big 10. Mizzou couldn’t get the invite but Kansas could. Would be hilarious

I’d rather Colorado than Kansas, but don’t want them either. They ain’t Southeat, but they are a joining state with Oklahoma as well.
