Rumor: Texas and OU to SEC within weeks

- Start date
I hate this. It’s 2 conferences now…call it what it is. Hearing there will now be 4 - 4 team divisions. I’m guessing that’ll look like:
- Texas
- Oklahoma
- Texas A&M
- Arkansas
- Florida
- Georgia
- South Carolina
- Kentucky
- LSU
- Mississippi State
- Ole Miss
- Missouri
- Alabama
- Auburn
- Tennessee
- Vanderbilt
- Texas
- Oklahoma
- Texas A&M
- Arkansas
- Florida
- Georgia
- South Carolina
- Kentucky
- LSU
- Mississippi State
- Ole Miss
- Missouri
- Alabama
- Auburn
- Tennessee
- Vanderbilt
Looks like the NFL. Wonder if we'll have our own intra-conference playoff? Seems inevitable if teams finished tied.
I can’t imagine a multi-game playoff with the CFP expanding. That is unless we go to 9 conference games and a 10 game schedule. Which could be coming.
I think these conference title games will disappear. Conferences will be crazy to play that game to potentially knock out a CFP contender. I’m sure money is the main issue, but seems like that game would be eliminated before regular season games would, which is what some coaches are calling for.
I don't think it's a coincidence that they are planning on going to a 12 team playoff and Texas and Oklahoma bolting the Big 12. Look for both to happen within 2 years
Sewanee students say, “Why would we join a conference that can’t hold its liquor?”

Bama is about to make UT their B****. Just like the rest of us.
I am hearing Wake Forest and Wyoming moving to the CFL.
How will they determine who will play in the SEC championship game with that purposed conference format?
I've heard they're looking that direction too, and it's laughable considering how they used to poke their nose up about "academic prestige"
Yeah, I think If Texas and Oklahoma joins the SEC, they will officially start competing in the SEC when the SEC and CBS television deal expires and the new SEC and ESPN channels and ABC contract starts. I think it will be 2024.
You hate it, as well you should. The contemptible trash that are doing this care nothing for the things that helped make college football the best sport in history. Tradition and sense mean nothing to them. Only money. The bad part is, I'm sure our fool University will go happily along, like an obedient dog.
Really only thing our university can do. Have a feeling if university’s try to fight this they will be on the outside looking in unless you were an original member
It only takes four schools to say no, and I can't fathom why the Mississippi schools, Vandy, and Kentucky would want this.
I think most fans in the SEC said the same thing when we came into the league along with Ark.
I guess we'll be called The Big 16 because their a$$es aren't located in the southeast.

You'd be surprised what schools will do for extra money to maintain their Universities in other areas. And lets face it...Vandy, Kentucky, and the Mississippi schools aren't winning the SEC even under the current situation...so you mine as well get paid more.
Both Texas and Oklahoma are widely considered apart of the South
We just need Miami and FSU to get their crap together and start being competitive again.
You know Texas was a slave state right. (I reckon Oklahoma would have been too, but they didn't become a state til 1907)

But you clearly said South, I'm not arguing the Southeast part but definitely a part of the South.
Either way, you don't give up 90 years worth of branding on Southeastern Conference. If Boise can be in the Big East, Texas and Oklahoma can be in the SEC
