With a 12 team CFB Playoff coming soon, there could be some conference re-shuffling once again. It is being reported that the Big 12’s marquee teams, Oklahoma and Texas, are enquiring with the SEC about possibly joining that conference:
Texas & OU enquired w/SEC about leaving Big 12 & SEC has interest in both schools, sources told @Stadium. “This will take some time but there is interest on both sides,” source said. Added Big 12 source: “This was inevitable." SEC by-laws require 11 of 14 schools to extend invite
