Wish we’d picked Texas to join the SEC


Texas is a big brand and with them comes a large TV market.

Missouri would have rather been in The B1G and would probably leave the SEC for The BIG if given the chance.

Here's the rub.

Texas is not an equal school. The SEC is an equal conference. We divide up everything equally between 14 schools.

Texas A&M is a good fit for the SEC. Sure they are weirdos, but they are far less liberal than Austin Texas.

Missouri is a better fit for the SEC than the BIG.

Neither Missouri nor Texas A&M have caused a problem in the SEC and they have embraced the Equality of the conference.

If Texas would have joined with their Longhorn channel it would not have been equal. Sooner or later they would have wanted a bigger cut of the network contract.

The Aggies are weirdos that's a given. Missouri is more midwestern as well.

The two fit in the SEC tho. Their fans are unique from what we are used to, but they are not a problem from a revenue perspective which is what the conference cares about.

I'm glad to have em. Sure ATM is like adding Alabama lite and Missouri is like adding a tie to a suit you forgot you have.

Texas is poison and would cause problems for the conference.

Mizzou would not leave the SEC for the B1G. This is the best spot for us, even if Mizzou once flirted with the B1G. We're not going anywhere, this is where we want to be.

Eh who cares about that, I've watched LSU get to four national championships in my lifetime and win 2 of them, I dont really care about stuff that happened before I was born too much.


Concur, havin fun with ya.. I initially was responding to some clown Mizzou fan bashing Texas’ value. Trust me, Texas fans DGAF about the $ unless a pawnlike Mizzou fan tries to disrespect the brand. The only good the brand value does for a fan is keep the candle of hope lit.

So I’m going to say this as if there was a 20% chance you were serious.

Any mention by the other 12 legit sec members of a choice between aggy and horn produces a slew of comments.

They relate to
1pictures of Texas students holding dongs.
2 Men wearing an LSU golden girls uni
3 the name deloss, and how Texas is scared to play you.
4 how LSU was scared to play you
5 how you own Oklahoma.
Plus scores more topics


Somehow this all goes back to your uncontrollable hatred of UT and how it must be taken out on the other rivalries that aggy ranters are trying to manufacture on the sec rant.


I am sure that this is not a thing with most aggy fans that don’t post. But there are 7 or 8 that go into a tizz if you mention the decision to take aggy and mizz over other higher tier programs.

I recently moved to Missouri for work. No one gives a damn about Mizzou sports here. A far cry from getting asked who your team is in job interviews in the South.

I'm glad to have you as a brother to the north. I just cant help feeling that outside of sports you want to be in the B1G due to being AAU.

Mizzou is the forgotten pawn.

25 years with zero conference season championships in the big three sports. They haven’t won a football championship in 60 years. Sixty fricking years.

Guys the SEC does not want or need Texas...

Texas single handed destroyed the old SWC

and has near destroyed the Big 12.

No worth having them in the conference with the baggage they bring.

I’d trade them for Mizzou. Anything to correct that mistake and get Mizzou out of the SEC.

Texas wants no part of the SEC. Hell, they already have their own conference AND TV station.

You're a bright one. We all know how rich Texas is, if somehow we forgot, you freaks would make sure to remind us. Value doesn't have to be defined in money. If your arrogance and bulllish ways runs of members of a conference you're a part of, if you have a history of destroying conferences, if people even here know your tactics and poisonous mindset, very few would not want any part of you. So you have no value to anyone with choices. Comprehend?

Perhaps you’ve forgotten where we started.

Backed yourself into a corner and continue to do so. You’re like the loser on his fifth meaningless job that is still blaming management for his struggles.

You ran your mouth off and were called out on it. You could own it & let it go or you can continue to double down. I can play this game all day & have no problem sticking your face in your own piss.

From everything I have read or heard about their campus culture a school like Texas would fit better in the PAC. The PAC is a collection of weirdos, wackos and culture warriors. Don't ever want to see Texas in the SEC.

B1G then PAC then ACC

It’s a good thing very few in the SEC fan base desire Texas as a conference partner as UT has declined and will always decline any SEC offers.

To each their own, I’d love to see my Horns in the SEC but my only objective is watching football. Texas & the SEC simply aren’t a fit.
