no SEC team is going to balk at playing a football game there instead of in Columbia.
Numerous SEC teams would agree to play basketball there as well. Hell, LSU baseball would play you at Royals stadium.

LSU plays Hogs in Little Rock already

I agree...getting Arkansas to play them there will be a no-brainer...I bet they could also get Nebraska to play them there if necessary.

They have options.

If they host their home games vs Arkansas in KC, that would actually be great. Its only 3 1/2 hours from Fayetteville to KC. Columbia is further from Fayetteville.

But I don't see Arkansas agreeing to an annual neutral site game.

If Kansas refuses I think Mizzou would be very happy with a Mizzou/UNL game there. I don't see Arky doing anymore neutral site games. They need to play more than 2 games on campus.

I am guessing they will play Arkansas there every two years, and then play another school like LSU, Texas A&M, or Tennessee there.

Fans love neutral site games at NFL stadiums...always have a big game feel.

I'd be fine opening SEC play with Mizzou at Arrowhead. I don't want to go there late in the season, though.

Too f-ing cold.

Little Rock is always pretty miserable (cold/rainy) the week of Thanksgiving too

A lot of places not within 100 miles of the Gulf are.

Little Rock is still a lot further south (and warmer) than Kansas City.

I hate going to Little Rock and would prefer going to Columbia. Mizzou is suppose to be a very nice campus.

It was 75 in Little Rock last year. Little Rock is only 400 some odd miles South East of KC. So there can't be that much difference in the weather. Right?

Lets get scientific!

Avg November Temperature:

KC - 43

LR - 52

BR - 60

The average temperature in Little Rock in November is slightly closer to that of Baton Rouge than of Kansas City, MO.
