OU, and UTX fans are both going to have a reality when they arent the top dogs in a 2 team top heavy conference. The SECs big 6 ain't going to care about their history.

When were they top dogs lately in the Big 12?

It would be legendary if Colon Cowturd could disappear. Even if he happens to stumble into being correct every now and then.

I don't think the recruiting logic that applies to Nebraska applies to OU. In fact OU's recruiting might get better. They should maintain their footprint in Texas and expand South. I agree with his other two points though...tougher opponents and the coach is not exactly right.

I see them being an Arkansas middle of the road program in the SEC. The big boys all come after those Dallas kids and it will be tough for boomer to keep up.

Miami disappeared as well, but I think that’s because the football gods decided they had had enough of that crap…..

Nope. They won't be dominant, but they will continue being one of top sec teams. They will hurt the middling teams
The most, by stealing some of their talent in recruiting.

I don't know how OU is going to fare in the SEC, but I think they know its going to be very tough to get to the playoffs now as opposed to where they were.

I feel like the Big 12 and the Pac 12 should have merged instead of the top 2 leaving.

Oklahoma would’ve been a better fit in the Big Ten.

They will be fine. They get plenty of Texas recruits and have a standard in sports Nebraska wishes they had. The two are not the same. Oklahoma is a great addition and look forward to playing them.

Man I said this to my friends the day the schedules came out. Actually said they’d be a slightly better Arkansas in a few years. Damn Herd

Cowherd has a hard-on for trolling OU fans... because the OU twitter base bites that hook every time.

OU has a better athletic department than Nebraska across the board. They have better access to recruits for football with a huge fan base in DFW. They may not be as good in football as they have been but they aren’t going to be bad.

I see Texas and Oklahoma being able to recruit more competitively as members of the mighty SEC Conference. But can they coach them up?

OK is too strong with big money and passionate fan base! They may not win 10-11 games every yr like in past but they will be fine

OK needs to be playing Nebraska every year. The SEC is a square peg in a round hole for them, Texas, Texas AM and especially Missouri.

Too bad you have no idea how Mizzou and A&M got invited they are not big 10 schools and they made SEC That much better...swallow that!!

The move was completely moronic for OU. They let Texas just lead them around as leverage, but without all that UT money. It makes perfect sense for the Whorns though. They're about to take that alumni endowment money to Birmingham and absolutely wreck fricking shop.

Expansion at all right now was a dumbass move and the SEC will regret it for eternity. I still don't see the upside for the rest of the conference.

UT and it’s boosters are in for a rude awakening dealing with the Bama mafia.
