Good Basketball...and better reffing. SEC basketball is so reliant on athleticism...it is just ugly to watch (outside kentucky obviously).
I am a big wrestling guy too. I miss good conference wrestling.
Bar banter. Especially in KC, there are lots of former Big 12 grads. Nebraska, ku, kstate, Mizzou, even some Iowa state fans. Definitely a big damper on that.
kU games. College sports just don't feel the same without it.
Shorter drives. SO much easier to go to away games. I'll hit maybe 1 per year in the SEC. I'd hit most of the Big12 North away games. Away Conference basketball games in the SEC....forget about it.

Travel is more of an issue for yall than it is for us. I know TAMU did a study on this and I forget the exact details but average travel was something like 50 more miles a season. Also, we have a long history with two SEC schools and that made the transition easier for us than yall. Missouri really had no history with any SEC teams like we did.
It sounds to me like you miss the XII. Texas A&M WANTED to be in the SEC; Missouri just wanted out of the XII.
