Historically, Oklahoma is the third best program in the nation. I don't see how we can so easily count them out

Because they didn’t earn it by running through the SEC gauntlet.

Because….. this is a what have you done while playing in the SEC conversation.

And….. here’s why you can easily discount their past. Nebraska was also once upon a time great just like OU. They move out of the Big 12 to the Big Ten and they are mediocre at best. Arkansas had a really nice history until they moved to the SEC in 1992. Since then, they have an all-time losing SEC conference record.

Let’s wait 10 years and see just how good OU is when they have to face a significantly more difficult schedule.

OU is one of the top five football programs in college football history.

It has no SEC history.

It cannot be the #2 football program in the SEC, historically speaking.

It is the second best all-time program if ranking the future SEC teams.

There can be more than one ranking.

I hate conference expansion.
