ACC, Big Ten, and Pac-12 formally announce alliance between conferences

It’s official: the ACC, Big Ten, and Pac-12 have formed an alliance between the three conferences. There are a lot of moving parts in the world of college athletics as Oklahoma and Texas shook things up with their announced move to the SEC in 2025. Although this ACC-Big Ten-Pac-12 alliance had been discussed over the weeks leading up to Tuesday’s (August 24) announcement, the commissioners from each conference joined on a press conference to comment on the decision.

While specific details on what this alliance means are scant at this point, it’s clear that scheduling will be a major point of emphasis.
