Here is an example of the pods based mostly on geography and somewhat on competitiveness (though D could get pretty rugged) …
Pod A
Florida
Georgia
South Carolina
Tennessee
Pod B
Alabama
Auburn
Kentucky
Vanderbilt
Pod C
LSU
Mississippi State
Ole Miss
Missouri
Pod D
Arkansas
Oklahoma
Texas
Texas A&M

Pod C & D probably would not be like that. Also, Texas A&M would throw a shitfit if they were stuck in a pod like that with Texas.
For Mizzou, from a competitive standpoint, Pod C is an 'easier' pod. That said, Pod D makes more sense for them for recruiting. Also, renews an old Big 8 rivalry and the SEC has been 'pushing' the border rivalry between Mizzou-Arkansas and trying to make something out of it.
So i think it's more likely that if they went to a Pod system, you would see Mizzou and Texas A&M flipped.
But you never know, I guess . . . . . .
