Title: POLL: Do You Support Missouri Joining the SEC if Rivalry Games Are Preserved? Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on October 19, 2011, 10:43:14 AM http://www.rollbamaroll.com/2011/10/19/2500331/rbr-poll-do-you-support-missouri-joining-the-sec-if-our-rivalry-games To Vote
Quote Alabama has apparently been one of the obstacles to Missouri's joining the SEC in that it wants to preserve its annual rivalries with both Auburn and Tennessee. It's widely believed that Missouri joining the conference will push Auburn into the Eastern division, thus causing the problem with our two biggest rivals being in the other division. There has been chatter about Missouri basically being assigned to the East no matter how ridiculous that may be geographically. If our two annual rivalry games can be preserved, do you support Missouri joining the SEC? Title: Re: POLL: Do You Support Missouri Joining the SEC if Rivalry Games Are Preserved? Post by: jtide on October 19, 2011, 10:48:39 AM I'm not sure what the SEC gains by expanding. I guess it's a money thing. It just means more teams competing to get in the SEC title game which is a spring board to the national championship game.

More money would do more good things for the SEC, and they are AAU, which does good things academically. But, it would be that much more competition, and I don't think it would be fair to them to put them in the East, no matter how the rivalries shake out. I like mayonnaise on my ham sammiches.

Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on October 19, 2011, 12:51:55 PM I know I am in the minority, but I like the idea of Missouri joining the SEC. Great school and super large TV market to go along with Texas A M and the Texas market. In adding those two schools, the SEC will have greatly expanded it's viewership. I don't favor losing the Tennessee or the boogers rivalries.
