So ... since it appears that the expanded B1G ship has sailed without Mizzou on it, would you Mizzou fans favor going to a 14-team SEC with A&M?


... Thereby being free of UTexas in a proactive move to get out of the XII-II before it implodes/explodes/disintegrates?

... And joining THE best conference in the country?

... And avoiding being stuck in the post-XII-II scramble to join a super MWC/BigEast/Conf.USA???

WHAT SAY YOU?

With expansion only to 14 instead of 16 teams, the SEC could stick with two divisions, with round-robin play within each for Football, with one cross-division rival as it is currently done.

Current cross-division rivals are as follows:

CURRENT 12-Team SEC

Team

Present Rival

Alabama

Tennessee

Arkansas

South Carolina

Auburn

Georgia

Florida

Louisiana State

Georgia

Auburn

Kentucky

Mississippi State

Louisiana State

Florida

Mississippi State

Kentucky

Ole Miss

Vanderbilt

South Carolina

Arkansas

Tennessee

Alabama

Vanderbilt

Ole Miss

Everyone in the SEC would appear to be on-board with moving Auburn to the East. If that were the case, then Bama and Auburn would need to be each other's cross-division rival, and Georgia would need a new West rival. My guess is that none of the other current cross-division rivalries is sacrosanct, so the teams could probably be expected either to agree to each choosing a particular cross-division rival for all-time, or perhaps agree to change them up every five years or so.

Who would you want as Mizzou's cross-division rival?

Kentucky?

Tennessee?

Vandy?

Georgia?

Florida?

South Carolina?
