Nebraska’s Big 12 Goodbye
Nebraska has played both Oklahoma, Colorado, and Missouri in football for almost 100 years, but their conference affiliation has come to an end. The Cornhuskers announced today that they would be leaving the Big 12 conference and moving to the Big 10. The move followed Colorado’s move to PAC-10 Conference earlier in the week. Many expect the Big 12 Conference to eventually fold as other schools scramble to find other conferences to join. The Big 12 was created in 1996 with the addition of Texas, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, and Baylor University to the 89-year-old Big 8 conference. I’d expect Nebraska to continue some of its Big 12 rivalries with Oklahoma, Colorado, and Missouri, but college football history will certainly be different going forward. Expect to see more and more schools looking to jump conferences in the coming weeks.
