Yesterday was one of the most significant days the SEC has seen in a long, long time. News broke that the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners have reached out to the conference about making the jump from the Big 12, giving Auburn football two more tumultuous tussles year in and year out.
Or at least one. The Tigers are one of seven SEC teams that have won more games than Texas in the last decade. Mississippi State is even on that list.
UT may have trouble maintaining their top-15 recruiting resume if they end up no longer being one of the top players in their conference.
