Football - will be harder (4 other big 12 teams in the top 25 last year vs 6 SEC teams, 5 of which are ranked ahead of the next highest ranked Big 12 team)

Women's Soccer - will be harder (1 other Big 12 team in the top 25 vs 5 in the SEC)

Volleyball - About the same difficulty. (3 other big 12 vs 3 SEC in the top 25)

Womens basketball - Harder (Actually more top 25's in the Big 12.. 4 to 2... but those two are SC and LSU which makes actually winning the conference much tougher)

Mens swimming - Much harder (8 vs 0 in favor of the SEC)
Womens swimming - Much harder (8 vs 0 in favor of the SEC)
Mens tennis - Much harder (8 vs 1 in favor of the SEC)
Mens golf - Much harder (9 vs 2 in favor of the SEC)
Womens golf - Much harder (8 vs 0 in favor of the SEC)
Softball - Same to slightly harder.. (9 vs 2 in favor of the SEC, but OU and Okie State are VERY good)

The SEC and Big 12 numbers count OU as a Big 12 team even though they'll be in the SEC next season.

Texas is a good team in a lot of sports. But the SEC has more good teams in nearly every sport than the Big 12 does. That makes winning conference titles much harder.
