I think it was bad at anytime. Went from having about 7 to 8 schools having more inherent advantages to 9 to 10 in SEC. Went from very hard to very, very, very hard. Were down to 2 big brands in B12. Now I think it is way more about coach than big money, tradition and that kind of sorting mechanism in B12. Yes they had to shed the big brands but now the Big 12 is the most level playing field among leagues that will get a playoff spot(s).
I still like the Big 10 the best (which MU did too until It didn’t). Still be hard to win that league but to me they only have about 4 big brands so a bit easier. More money than anyone, a bit easier football, Midwestern culture. For me, that was the sweet spot for Mizzou. Also would’ve been immensely better for MU baseball.But it didn’t happen.
