I have seen so many potential conference changes that I have no idea what is really going on.

I could see OU and Oklahoma State going to the SEC.

Highly unlikely. The state of Oklahoma doesn’t have the population to support two teams in the SEC. Most polls indicate that 75% of the state are OU fans. It’s not financially viable for the SEC to take both teams.

OU has made it very clear that SEC would be their last choice. If OU leaves the Big XII, they will go to the PAC or the B1G. BTW, B1G has ‘vetted’ OU for membership.

I could see OU in the B1G with Kansas while Texas reconstitutes the South West Conference augmenting the remnants of the Big XII with AAC teams.
