Okla To Decide On Leaving The B12 In Next 3 Weeks

  • Updated: September 2, 2011, 7:37 PM ET

    Oklahoma debating conference options

    NORMAN, Okla. -- University of Oklahoma president David Boren says multiple conferences have shown interest in the Sooners recently and he expects to decide whether to leave the Big 12 or not within the next three weeks.

    Boren said Friday that he has received "interest from other conferences and other universities, so it's really a tribute to the strength of our program at the University of Oklahoma that there is so much interest in us."

    Boren said Oklahoma will carefully evaluate its options and suggested the process could take as little as three days but likely no longer than three weeks.

    Texas A&M announced this week that it planned to leave the Big 12 next year. That would reduce the 12-team league to only nine members.

    The one big disadvantage the B1G is burdened with is, of course, the weather. Are these warm weather teams (Ok and Texas) willing to travel to Ohio and play in 30 degree weather? Other than that I believe the B1G should have the advantage if they are looking for financial reasons, what with the Big Ten Network and the schools sharing the bowl winnings.

  • Add OU and Mizzu! That brings the Dallas, St. Louis, and KC markets immediately. Not to mention OU's national following.

    Step2 send Wiscy over to other division.
    Step3 give us our little brother back.
    Step4 just f#!!ing call it east/west divisions.
    Step5 tell iowa sorry the cute heroes game will now be rescheduled for earlier in the season as OU vs Neb rivalry would be renewed under the B1G branding on Thanksgiving annually.
    Step6 say suck it EsecPN

    Methinks you would have to take Okla St to get Okla to join the B1G.

    Love to get Okies in the B10. Even more legit, but also means less domination by our Buckeyes. It's what we need to win it all. a tougher league to prepare for the SEC teams...

  • Multiple conferences could mean Big East, Pac12 and SEC, the B1G may not even be involved.
