Dirtydawg a little history lesson. First off Missouri is represented by one of the stars on the Confederate Flag. So if VT and UNC came to the SEC all 13 stars would then be represented. Second Kentucky never succeeded so they weren't officially part of the Confederacy either. As a matter of fact when Braxton Bragg invaded Kentucky from the south Kentucky snipers shot at his army. One last thing, Missouri did provide 40,000 troops to the Confederate army (and 100,000 to the Union Army/the 140,000 total was more than the 100,000 Georgia provided total). Missouri for the most part is a Midwestern state, but it does have southern and Civil War History. It also has the advantage of never having to deal with Mr. Sherman and his little march to the sea.
