Big 12

A pair of 38-4 victories showed how dominant the Wyoming Cowboys wrestling team can be, as they closed out their home schedule last weekend.

Just months after saying they would be joining the Big East, Texas Christian reversed course on Monday, announcing it had accepted an invitation to join the Big 12.

Big 12 officials voted Thursday to invite Texas Christian University to be the league’s tenth team next year, replacing Texas A&M when they move to the SEC. The Horned Frogs are playing their last year in the Mountain West, and had prepared to move to the Big East next year, but TCU sources say they only need to finalize a few details and expect to announce their plans to join the Big 12 soon.

Sweeping conference realignment appeared to be put on hold Tuesday night when Pac-12 presidents and chancellors decided to keep the conference at 12 teams.

If you thought all the conference realignment in college sports was over, you might be wrong. Texas Gov. Rick Perry confirmed that his alma mater, Texas A&M, is in talks with the SEC for possible future membership. Perry stressed, however, that he didn’t have any sort of inside information about where the discussion stands.
