What does Missouri have to do with anything, that was pre-existing. I seriously don't understand why they are being mentioned.

Yes, Missouri stays in the East. Nothing is done with TAM.

Once again…geography.


I can understand geography. However it is 775 miles from Columbia, MO to Austin, TX and only 675 miles from Columbia to Atlanta.

You said you want East/West again.
If you look GEOGRAPHICALLY, TA&M & Mizz. ARE WESTERN LOCATED schools for the SEC.

Therefore, if you're going to add TX & OK, that creates the debate of 2 WESTERN LOCATED schools for the SEC & which group they should be placed in (being both are located FURTHER WEST than Mizz.).

True but Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Mississippi State were pretty bad during a lot of those years

East west is ghey. And as a founding member we will not be put with all the new schools only.

North south gives both division the same number of new comers

I see. I don't care about MZ or TAM though, that problem already existed, and TX is both farther East and Farther West than Oklahoma.

Should just add one to one side, and the other to the other side, make'em perms and be home for dinner.

Auburn- Florida won’t get assigned Auburn because there is no way they are going to make AU play Alabama, Georgia, and Florida every single season. Too difficult.


And yet we used to play all three plus Tennessee every single season.

Texas A&M are not an LSU rival....this needs to be said over and over.

LSU's rivals are Ole Miss, MS State and then maybe Bama, FL or Ark.
