Missouri basketball snubbed from SEC – Big 12 Challenge

Nobody ever said change would be easy. Once again, that saying speaks volumes of truth when the SEC announced the schedule of opponents for the SEC-Big 12 Challenge on Thursday.

Missouri was not mentioned as a contestant. While I’ve harped on my desire to see the “Border War” between Missouri and Kansas renewed, it doesn’t look like an imposed game between the two teams will occur any sooner. Kansas is scheduled to play Texas A&M.

The SEC stated that the reason behind any team not having a slot to play in the Challenge, is due solely on its previous season’s record, of which Mizzou’s was not hot.
