An Addition of Oklahoma and Texas Would Establish the SEC as The Premier Conference in College Athletics

With the latest report by the Houston Chronicle about the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners requesting membership into the Southeastern Conference could bring very good news to Razorback fans.

The SEC would remain the toughest conference in all of college football. The western division could also claim to still be one of the toughest in the country, too.

Arkansas spent most of their early history behind the shadow of Texas during their time in the defunct Southwest Conference. Their exit from the old conference gave the Razorbacks a breath of fresh air but also tougher competition. However, they were still able to recruit the state of Texas with a lack of much competition.
