Big 12 Defectors Aren’t Doing Well against the Big 12

Conference realignment is one of my favorite topics, so seeing Texas pound Colorado in the Alamo Bowl on Tuesday night got me thinking.

Since leaving the Big 12, Colorado, Texas A&M, Nebraska and Missouri are a combined 250-216, that’s a .536 winning percentage. That’s mediocre (some would say av-rudge).

I’m sure some fans from those programs would say something along the lines of, “Well, it’s harder to win in the SEC/Big Ten/Pac-12 than it is in the Big 12.”

But looking deeper, those schools have won just two of their last eight matchups against Big 12 foes.
