This is the move that is being called “The Dam Breaker”. If you were holding on to any memory of conference alignment that made sense on a map, this shattered that. Oklahoma and Texas at least connected to the other SEC States when they jumped from The Big 12. You have to literally jump mountains to connect USC/UCLA to the nearest Big10 school. It is a new day, just like when we start NIL and free transfers in the portal, and I’m sure we have more moves coming. Stay tuned. – Jim Dunaway
