Why do Mizzou fans have so much less animosity toward the Big12 than Ags?

Is it because Mizzou actually had success in the conference?

They weren't a little bro and they've had success in the SEC

As a casual observer it would seem Mizzou was happy where they were but glad to get out .... they wanted B1G, they got SEC and now they are checking the horseshoe up their collective asses, along with their blessings.
Mizzourites do not have the time to waste dwelling on that Tejas Big 12 old stuff.
A&M fans were born having to dwell on it.

Mizzou never won a big 12 title. We did

We all couldn't be lucky and end up in the SEC* east

I think the biggest thing is we don't have to deal with it on a regular basis. We're gone and couldn't be happier.
A&M has to deal with tejas on a regular basis. Only on the rare occasion does the Mizzou/ku rivalry pop up, but not being in the same state, it's hardly the same as having to deal with tejas.

Because Mizzou rarely ever had any success in the Big 12 and were able to win the SEC East the last two seasons while going 1-10 against conference teams with a winning record.
A&M hasn't won anything elite in decades and are the little brother in the state.

they weren't in quite the direct proximity with ut like the ags. i really don't blame the aggies at all for their hatred.

No thanks Ags. The East is a napkin party free zone.

I would love to spank that wildcat arse every year for a easy win. In addition, Missouri didn't have to deal with all the drama from Baylor.

LOL at Aggies thinking they would have done better than Mizzou in the East.
2014 - Lost at home to Missouri
2013 - Lost to Missouri on the road
2012 - Beat the worst Missouri team in a decade at home
2011 - Lost at home to Missouri
2010 - Lost at home to Missouri

Not sure to what this post is in reference ... but any "animosity" I hold is predominantly directed at the manner in which we were lambasted, upon our departure.
See Chernobyl.
Texas A&M was looking to make a better situation for ourselves; the BXIIers acted the fools (and still do).
Mizzou simply didn't face the same obstacles we did.
Also, Aggies are surrounded (families, work, neighbors, etc.) by Texas Tech Red Raiders, Baylor Bears, UTex Horns, TCU Frogs, and OU Sooners.
Mizzou likely doesn't face the same daily nonsense from others.
So there's the geography thing.
Those of you fans of teams who share your states with other large, non-SEC schools understand.

You have played Missouri every year since joining. 1-2

Mizzou has lost 4 conference games in the last two seasons (including the SECCG). How do you get from 4 losses to 1-10? Is that Common Core math?

This is why. I can't imagine having to live next to Beaker fans the way Aggies fans have to live next to Bevo fans. Honestly, I'm glad that I never have to deal with toxic Beaker fans anymore.

The only team we ever really hated was kU and Nebraska to a lesser extent, but they were already gone. Mizzou was a founding member, before there was a big 12. Texas is the only team we blame for fricking up the conference. I'd willingly see missouri in a conference with any of the other past or present members of the big12 - just not kU or TX.
