They add a good team to the league. We don't need elite teams added. This is more of a opponent to add for a more balanced league (East vs West) Plus permanent opponents will disappear.

Texas A&M don't have the clout or votes to stop it.

If balance is the concern, why not add 2 eastern teams and move Missouri to the West? Makes the most geographic sense.

They do have the clout. A&M, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Kentucky have all agreed to vote no on adding a school within the state of those 5.
