Still, Thats a lot of travel and a lot of late games in the midwest.
Not necessarily. If Mizzou were in the Pac-xx, it would be because the conference had expanded to 16, and that would mean an Eastern division of 8 schools in the Mountain and Central time zones. For football at least, there wouldn't be any more than 1 game per year in the Pacific time zone.

That said, the distance is still larger than for any of the other Big-12 schools that would be likely Pac-12 targets...
