Show Notes
Texas and Oklahoma will play in the Red River Rivalry on Saturday for the final time as members of the Big 12. The rivalry game will continue, but the universities will move on to the SEC before the 2024 season.
RJ Choppy of Shan and RJ on Audacy's 105.3 The Fan says he's not sure if Longhorns and Sooners fans fit in with the rest of the SEC, while Longhorns' play-by-play voice Craig Way breaks down the road that led the universities to leave their home of 20 years.
Finally, Dennis Coates, an economic professor at the University of Maryland-Baltimore County, explains how the departure of Texas and Oklahoma could impact Big 12 college towns like Waco or Lubbock.
