10:35 AM ET 10.23 | Friday, the true question of Mizzou's potential move from the Big 12 Conference to the Southeastern had shifted from "if" to "when" after the University of Missouri Board of Curators acted to authorize MU chancellor Brady Deaton to go from exploring options to acting on them. The next phase of MU's withdrawal scheme could come as soon as Monday, when the Big 12 board is scheduled to have its fall meeting in Dallas, and there are rumblings of news being announced later in the week in Columbia. The Birmingham (Ala.) News reported that barring any legal or financial entanglements SEC leaders would approve the addition of Mizzou if MU agrees to play in the Eastern Division; the Columbia Daily Tribune was told by multiple sources that MU officials expect to be in the East.

They should want to be in the East... LUs Bama Arky and Auburn..That being said... TX conference looks like he best top to bottom

So true, but UF will get better and they will need something to blame why they aren't recruiting well playing so far from Columbia.

Yeah, b12 definitely has a strong middle. And I stand by my okie lite being best in conf. Let's just see if they hold it together at bedlam.
