The SEC’s next invasion of Big 12 terrain will occur in 2024.
This one, though, only really affects sports hacks like me who cover college football. SEC Media Days will navigate to Dallas next July, conference commissioner Greg Sankey announced Monday. This is hardly a paradigm-shifting development, but it’s notable because the Big 12 conducts its annual preseason media bash at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Once again, the SEC will flex some muscle in a region that used to belong to the Big 12. The SEC’s so-called "talkin’ season" going to Dallas will be a direct reminder of how the SEC raided the Big 12 to grow in number, influence, territory and financial might.
