What's at stake if the University of Texas and Oklahoma move to the SEC?

KHOU’s Jason Bristol, KVUE’s Jeff Jones and WFAA’s Jason Whitely discussed UT and OU’s plans to join the SEC with LockedOn Podcasts.

The University of Texas and the University of Oklahoma have taken big steps in their plans to leave the Big 12 and join the Southeastern Conference.

Both universities formally notified the Big 12 on Monday that they won't extend their grants of TV rights when the current TV deal runs out after the 2024-25 athletic year.

On Tuesday, the two universities made it official and emailed a letter to SEC commissioner Greg Sankey requesting invitations to the conference, effective July 1, 2025.

For Oklahoma and Texas to be admitted to the SEC, at least 11 of the conference's member schools must approve the move.

KHOU’s Jason Bristol, KVUE’s Jeff Jones and WFAA’s Jason Whitely discussed UT and OU’s plans to join the SEC with Chris Gordy, Josh Neighbors and Cole Thompson from LockedOn Podcasts.
