This is sorta good.  If the Big 12 implodes first, it helps us.

SEC issued a statement saying this was not true...

SEC statement "The Southeastern Conference has not agreed, formally or informally, to accept any institution other than Texas A&M and there have not been conference discussions regarding changes in divisional alignments."

Did not we see this same chatter from Missouri last year as a potential Big Ten entry? Similar informal acceptances leaked followed by similar formal Big Ten denials.

My memory is not what it used to be - and it has never been that good to begin with - but I could have sworn we have seen this same Missouri song and dance before.
