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.

I'd say that is pretty accurate. I wouldn't say I miss the XII as much as I miss the Big 8.
