Oklahoma, Oklahoma St., Mizzou, Kansas, K-State, probably Texas Tech and...Nebraska? I don't know.

Arkansas fans travel very well. And with only four conference road games a season, distance doesn't matter.
For what it is worth, I know quite a few Arkansas Alumni from the SEC Alumni Group here and almost every one of them said they prefer being in the SEC. Many reasons but the main one was not the money, but that they felt more aligned "as a people" with the rest of SEC.
