Mizzou the only SEC team with a wrestling program?

Do you seek out wrestling matches to watch?

I’d be more impressed with curling…

Mizzou grad here...

Stop being a p***k and stop embarrassing us.

Mizzou hasn't done anything. No Final Fours, no conference championships in football, let alone a national championship. Missouri is the Show Me State but we haven't shown anything in any way that matters to this board.

And why pick on Arky? If I remember correctly their mens hoops team won a natty in 1994. Yeah that was a while ago but then again, where is our banner?

We are an afterthought in the SEC. Fortunately that doesn't prevent me from enjoying the outstanding competition this conference offers and savoring a good season when we have one. We are having one now, so why don't you STFU and enjoy the ride with some sense of humility?

they didn't arrive in the SEC obscured by the trail of Aggies' rainbow pixie dust like Missouri did - that's for sure -

why don't you tell us how many SEC & National titles in the big 3 sports Arkansas won within its first 5 seasons in the SEC and then compare that to how many Missouri won in the 10+ its been in the league -

They sucked in the SWC so bad that they were asked to leave and now they can't win anything that matters in the SEC to save their lives.


They had a lot of great sports programs I'm old enough to remember. Their basketball program was the best in the conference easily.

Just Texas, not A&M. The other members of the old SWC all went crying to the State Legislature, which then threatened cuts to appropriations, so Texas stayed in the SWC and South Carolina took our place.

No one wants to be your rival. Stop trying. Arkansas definitely sucks. Even being bad at football people still think about Arkansas. No one cares about Missouri. Honestly no one! You don’t fit in any conference. Culturally you belong in the Big 10. However they would never want Missouri because you offer nothing. People in Missouri only care about professional sports. Enjoy your one good season. You be back to dog shite soon enough.

Lot of young folks I guess don’t remember Texas crying like a bunch of little bitches when we left. What happened to the swc when Arkansas left?

FSU chickened out and didn’t accept invite so the SEC needed a warm body.

the same thing that would've happened had Arkansas stayed. SWC collapsing was inevitable and anyone paying attention could see that. that's why Arkansas left in the first place.

Everyone likes to change history to fit their narrative. Just take A&M's exit from the Big 12. They like to tell these grandiose stories of Texas destroying the conference but their biggest complaint was with the longhorn Network. What none of them will acknowledge is their own school voted in favor of those tier 3 rights that we took advantage of and they didn't. I've even heard some of them try to claim they would not have accepted that ESPN offer had they come to A&M instead of Texas which is lol.
Nebraska left for the same reason and they also voted in favor of those tier three rights.
I will admit that deloss was an arrogant a-hole however. Hell I didn't even like that son of a bitch.

You got the wrong school pal. South Carolina joined because FSU didn’t. They wanted an East and west team.

Arkansas joined on 8/1/90. South Carolina joined on 9/25/90

Both of the first two additions have accomplished way more than the two that joined in 2012
