The Big 12: A Love Story Gone Sour
Once upon a time, there was a happy little conference called the Big 12. It had two golden children: Texas and Oklahoma. They were the powerhouses, the big dogs, the ones everyone wanted to be like. But then, like all good love stories, things started to go downhill.
QuickTip: Focus on what feels most relevant.
The grass looked greener on the other side (or, in this case, more money was on the other side), and Texas and Oklahoma decided they wanted to trade in their Big 12 jerseys for some SEC threads. Cue the dramatic music.
QuickTip: Repetition reinforces learning.
The Inevitable Goodbye
So, when exactly is this breakup happening? Well, the good news (or bad news, depending on your perspective) is that we don’t have to wait much longer. Texas and Oklahoma will officially be leaving the Big 12 after the 2023-24 academic year. That means they’ll be playing their final Big 12 football games in the fall of 2023.
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.

We can expect a lot of tears, I mean, heartfelt goodbyes, and probably some pretty epic rivalries to come to a close. But hey, that’s sports!
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
What Happens Next?
Now, the million-dollar question is: what happens to the Big 12 without its two biggest stars? Will it crumble into a pile of dust, or will it rise from the ashes like a phoenix? Only time will tell.
One thing’s for sure, the college football landscape is about to get a whole lot more interesting.
