Conference realignment appears to be happening before the season actually begins with Texas and Oklahoma poised to leave the Big-12. Dominos could be about to fall. It will be interesting to see how things play out in the Big 12 with even Kansas and Iowa State talking to the Big 10:

Unless you've been living under a rock, you've already heard about the ongoing drama involving Texas and Oklahoma's flirtation with the SEC. Barring some last-minute changes, it seems likely that the Longhorns and Sooners will bail out of the Big 12 and head to greener pastures in the near future.

So where does that leave the Big 12? The conference lost Nebraska to the Big Ten, Colorado to the Pac-12 as well as Missouri and Texas A&M to the SEC during the last realignment phase roughly 10 years ago. It made up for those losses by adding TCU and West Virginia, which kept the ship afloat for the remainder of the decade.

Now that the ship is sinking, though, where can the other eight schools land? Of course, it's possible for the Big 12 to add some teams to try to stay attractive to television partners. But in a new era of college football that includes six automatic College Football Playoff bids for conference champions, no matter their previous conference, it's safe to say that the the Big 12 could fall way behind in an era that will place less relevance on Power Five/Group of Five status.

According to Barstool Sports’ Jack McGuire, the SEC has been in contact with Ohio State, Clemson, Florida State and Michigan amid massive expansion talks.

The conference is already on the verge of adding Texas and Oklahoma. However, it sounds like the SEC wants to control as much territory as possible.

One thing is for certain.

The Texas Longhorns record against Vandy in football is

3-8-1

which begs the question - why join a conference where the worst team STOMPED YOUR A$$
