You've got to wonder what could have been had the SEC not been in such a hurry to add Texas and Oklahoma.
Not that those two teams are bad additions but getting a Clemson, UNC, Virginia Tech or FSU would have made better sense - geographically - than either of the two Big 12 schools.
Just saying but it is what it is now.

I don’t won’t Clemson in the SEC.
I am sure many SC fans don’t want them here either.

OU is a parasite. Dumb to add them.

First, the geography is fine. Both schools are in the SE quadrant of the United States and are closer to newer sec teams like Missouri, Arkansas and A&M.
Second, Texas and to a lesser extent Oklahoma are so much bigger brands than FSU and Clemson it's not even worth debating.

Be patient for what? 2036? Texas and OU could get out in 2025. Would have had to wait another decade for those other schools.
Big Ten would have scooped up Texas and OU in a heartbeat.

SEC is now the only healthy conference that makes any sense geographically. ATLANTIC CC nearly added Stanford and Cal. can you imagine?

I think Texas and OU fits our profile.
OU has great fans .
Texas will be a good future rivalry game for us Vols.
