One of the reasons why Mizzou should go back to the Big 12: people could watch their games on Fox and ABC. Or even ESPN2 or fox sports. Instead they play 10 out of 12 games on a regional Southern tv network that people in KC and St Louie don’t get, let alone fans outside of the south. Is it really worth all the extra money that they are supposed to get one day by being SEC members if they no longer play on TV? I don’t watch conference tv networks so maybe there is a catch I’m not getting...

I live in West Texas and I get the SEC network. Pretty sure people in Missouri can get it. I have the Choice package on DirecTV. If Missouri didn't suck so bad, they would be on CBS and ESPN more.

SEC Network is available all across Missouri. SEC is ten times better than the Big 12 for Missouri.

10 out of 12 games are on SEC-N for the same reason almost every Rutgers game is on BTN.

According to Wikipedia, Mizzou had five SEC regular season games (two at home) on CBS, ESPN, or ESPN2 in 2014 when they won the East, plus an ESPN and ESPNU game in non-conference play. If you win in the SEC you get on TV - when you give up 40 to Missouri State and lose by four touchdowns to Purdue of course you'll wind up on the bottom of the TV heap.

Being in the military I never saw Mizzou play on any network. At most the OU, Texas, or Nebraska game. I live a long way from Missouri and I see Mizzou play a lot. Saw them score 68 today... 51 by halftime. I get the PAC 12, and BTN as well from Biloxi MS. Can't get a Big XII network, oh wait, they don't have one.

Jefferson Pilot is happy they went out of business so they don't get stuck televising that crap.

Haha yeah I was gonna say the same thing. Noon games on BTN are pretty much par for the course for us.

We are both the new kids on the block. I think we are still in the hazing phase.
