Who did Big Six snobs want in the SEC instead of Carolina and Arkansas?

I'll bet Tennessee wanted Virginia Tech and North Carolina, since Tennessee confuses eastern with southern
Bama wanted Florida State
UGA wanted Clemson
Florida wanted Syracuse and Rutgers
LSU wanted Arkansas, and congrats to them
Ole Miss wanted Georgia Tech
There we have it I think.

Honestly, I always thought Arkansas should have been in the SEC.
I thought FSU should have been as well, ah well, they ran away

We probably don't belong, I mean I think we have a losing record vs. Duke in football.

This is a quality troll. I like the people answering this and missing the hook entirely

If Texas politics would have allowed A&M to take the 12th slot then USCjr wouldn't even be a SEC program today.
Them and Mizzou only got their spots because conferences with odd numbers are hard to manage.

When I was called and asked who the conference should pursue I stated Florida A&M and Prairie View. But, you racist MFers could not handle HBCU in the conference

Georgia Tech burned their SEC bridge in 1963 when they got greedy and left the conference. Worst mistake they ever made.
Clemson could have been a possibility but I guess USCe was/is the flagship U in SC thus they were invited instead.
Florida would never let Free Shoes U in so that was a moot point.
Arkansas was a logical pick even though the location is the farthest distance away from anyone else in the conference (prior to A&M and Mizzou being invited).
Otherwise the SEC is not going to add another school in a state where it already has a footprint.
So the only logical future possibilities are NC, VA or OK. If they decide to go to 16 teams. Probably doubtful at this point but you never know.

Considering expectations Arkansas has been the biggest failure of all 4 programs

Florida State and Clemson have always been my choices.
Far better than U of SC and Arky, but the SEC settled.
Same with Mizzou, who doesn't belong at all and T A&M who is the best of the 4 but not as good as having a lot of other
schools that would have jumped at the chance.

The only time I remember Arkansas is in the SEC is during Track season.

Harry you’re a quality gent if you’re ever in the area I need to buy you a beer. Or a Diet Coke

I always thought South Carolina and Arkansas made sense. Missouri and one of the least athletically-successful schools from Texas were the head scratchers. Understand going into the Texas market, but Texas, Baylor, TCU and SMU would have all been better choices.

I thought LSU sponsored A&M in 1992? Been a while so I could be wrong.
Posted on 5/11/21 at 4:47 pm to Harry Rex Vonner
I wanted any of Florida St, Clemson, or Georgia Tech.
We have a rivalry with each.

West Alabama, aka Livingston, so Bama can finally have a real rival.

Its been 30 years since they joined. Is this really a topic people still get off on talking about?
