PHOTO: Mike Slive to toss commemorative coin at Texas A&M, Missouri

By Jerry Hinnen | College Football Writer

We're not sure if the SEC has pulled out all the stops for Texas A&M's and Missouri's conference debuts Saturday, but there can't be many left that they haven't.

The latest? This special commemorative coin, unveiled on the Twitter feed of SEC spokesman Chuck Dunlap and due to be flipped before both the Aggies' 3:30 p.m. ET matchup with Florida and the Tigers' 7:45 p.m. showdown with Georgia:

The updated pinwheel logo on the tails side is a nice touch. But who's going to be doing the flipping might be an even nicer touch: SEC commissioner Mike Slive himself. Slive is going to have to hustle to get from College Station to Columbia in time for kickoff. (Somehow, we think he can manage, though.)

Now all that's left to be determined is whether Aggies fans and Tigers fans are as happy at the end of the night as they are at the beginning; for insight on that, check out our Keys to the Game posts on both Florida-Texas A&M and Georgia-Missouri.
