For comparison:
–SEC: $42.M to $39.9M
–Big 12: Roughly $34.3M per school except Baylor
–Pac-12: $30.9M per school— Steve Berkowitz (@ByBerkowitz) May 16, 2018

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
If it ever meant we don’t have to play Missouri yearly, I’m all in.

Off topic, but RIP Andy Johnson, a damned good Dawg for sure. I will always remember him leading the team down the field against Tech on Thanksgiving night 1971 for one of the most thrilling games I’ve ever seen.

Since this thread is about SEC expansion, R.I.P. Mike Slive, the man who gave us Missouri and Texas A&M in the SEC almost at the expense of the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry and the Third Saturday in October.
