#1 The SEC will inherit a college football blue blood, it doesn't get much better than this.
#2 7 National championships, 7 Heisman trophy winners, the 47 game winning streak, college football history, OU will blend in quite well amongst the SEC Big 6.
#3 OU is a softball and gymnastics power house, this will benefit the SEC. The women's softball national championship was awesome this year and the Women's College World Series resides in OKC.
#4 The SEC gains the DFW TV market. I currently live in DFW and there are OU fans everywhere, I've seen way more OU and UT fans than I have A&M fans around Dallas and Fort Worth, its wild.
#5 OU is the new QBU. Mayfield, Murray, Hurts, and soon to be Spencer Rattler. Who's next, Caleb Williams? Malachi Nelson?
#6 OU is borderline RBU. Adrian Peterson, Samaje Perine, DeMarco Murray, Joe Mixon, Damien Williams, who's next? Kennedy Brooks?
#7 OU fans travel well. Ask Bama and Tennessee fans, there was mutual respect and opposing fan bases are always welcomed in Norman and treated with respect.
#8 OU brings innovation to college football. Think early 2000s spread, 2008 no huddle spread with Bradford Gresham, and the Pistol no huddle with Heupel as offensive coordinator. So much innovation that Nick Saban adopted tricks from the OU kit bag.
#9 OU has an elite brand that is respected nation wide, just think about the matchups:
OU @ Bama, Georgia @ OU, OU @ Florida, LSU @ OU, Auburn @ OU. These will be marque matchups that will be awesome to watch.
Switching to the SEC excites me purely with the matchups. I will miss Stillwater and Manhattan, but the SEC matchups will bring excitement.

What will OU fall to, around the middle of the league in team athletic national titles in the SEC?

You list a guy with 400 yards in the NFL and claim to be RBU
I was going off of college production. What they do in the NFL really has no impact on what they did in college.
Foreman had a 2,000 yard season, and that is pretty damn good regardless of what team you play for or against. What exactly does his NFL career have to do with RBU?
Is Florida State WRU because Randy Moss once was on the team?
Does Texas A&M get credit for Kyler Murray going #1 overall even though he played at OU the last 2 years?
Does Tennessee get credit for Arian Foster who was good in college, but then great for the Texans?
I suppose I should have listed Priest Holmes instead of D’onta Foreman.. because he was better for the Chiefs than Foreman.

Doesn’t OU also bring a tradition of NCAA violations? Pretty sure there’s been a nearly constant stream of NCAA violations in Norman.

Did they graduate from FSU or AM? Terrible comparison.

We are the SEC, we love football, we know all about your history. No need for introductions. Every time we beat you down in a bowl game, playoff, or National Championship game, we hear this.
Oklahoma is a top tier football school, and it is exciting to have you.

I think I speak for most fans when I say OU is welcome. Texas is another story. So the real question is if OU and Tex are package deal? If that is the case, then I hope not. But if OU could come without Texas, that would be great. I bet polls would reflect this as a slight majority of opinion for fans of current SEC schools.

The only thing I’m not looking forward to is your bland arse monotonous band. It’s the same damn song over and over and over and over and over…

Uh, disagree with the DFW lack of Aggy fans observation.
If you spent more time on the FTW side of the Metroplex you’d see Aggy stickers on vehicles everywhere.
Plenty of OU fans here but lots of LSU & Arky fans as well. It’s the 2nd biggest LSU OOS alum area behind only Houston.

Can't wait for OU to start SEC play for the first time
I think yall will be competitive and your fans have always been cool with me; yall can take a ribbing and dish it out without getting butthurt
Wish you'd leave your retarded cousin at home though so we could pick up a good team on the East Coast

We already have plenty of crappy states in the SEC. Why would we welcome an even shi**ier one?

Actually Id rather have OU AND either Florida State or Clemson in the fold. Looks like Texas and OU are tied at the hip however .

Especially by doing the world a favor and voluntarily excluding yourselves from the playoffs by joining the SEC.
