Soon to be Oklahoma.

Alabama is #1

Oklahoma is #2

LSU, Georgia, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and Auburn are 3-8 in that order, but the separation between those six is smaller than the separation between #2 Oklahoma and #3 LSU… and also tighter than the gap between #8 Auburn and #9 Texas A&M.



That is what people thought about Nebraska when they joined the Big 10

No. Nebraska had already fallen off as a program after the 2001 season. In the nine years prior to joining the BIG10, Nebraska averaged 5 losses/season. That’s a near decade of mediocrity.

Oklahoma is not coming into the SEC in that way.

Nebraska hadn't been in a major bowl game in a decade when they joined the Big Ten. Oklahoma was in the playoffs as recently as 2019 and in a NY6 Bowl as recently as 2020.
