The Big 12 Conference is a college athletic conference of ten schools located in the Central United States, with its headquarters located in Las Colinas, a community in the Dallas suburb of Irving, Texas. It is a member of the NCAA's Division I for all sports; its football teams compete in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS; formerly Division I-A), the higher of two levels of NCAA Division I football competition. Member schools are located in Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas.

According to the Big 12 Conference's website, the alternate names "Big Twelve" and "Big XII" are incorrect. The trademarked name of the conference is Big 12 Conference, notwithstanding the Roman numeral XII featured on the conference logo.[1] The Big 12 also holds trademark rights to Big 14 and Big 8.[2]

History

The conference was officially formed on February 25, 1994, when all eight members of the Big Eight Conference joined with four schools in Texas from the Southwest Conference.[3][dead link]Athletic competition in the conference commenced on August 31, 1996. Although (at the time of its formation) the Big 12 was composed of the old Big Eight plus the four Texas schools, it regards itself as a separate conference (as opposed to an enlarged Big Eight) and does not claim the Big Eight's history as its own. However, several college sports history sources consider both conferences as a single continuous operation dating to 1907.

From the conference's formation until the 2010–11 season, the Big 12 was split into two divisions for most major sports. The Oklahoma and Texas schools made up the South Division, and the remaining six former Big Eight Conference teams constituted the North Division. In the 2010–11 NCAA conference realignment, the Big 12 was arguably the most heavily impacted conference. First the University of Colorado at Boulder announced its plans to join the Pacific-12 Conference, and then later the University of Nebraska–Lincoln accepted an invitation for the Big Ten Conference. This effectively forced the discontinuation of the divisional format, as the NCAA requires at least twelve teams in a conference to hold a football playoff between division winners. The Conference retained the "Big 12" name and logo despite dropping to ten teams,[4] a decision ostensibly similar to the Big Ten Conference's choice to keep its name after its membership increased to twelve.

Conference instability and realignment

2010

Main article: 2010–11 NCAA conference realignment

In June 2010, American intercollegiate sports news became rife with speculation that the Big 12 Conference was on the verge of dissolution, including rumors of dividing the teams largely between the Pac-10 and Big Ten conferences. On June 10, Colorado accepted an invitation to become the Pac-10's eleventh member, effective in 2012.[14][15] The school later negotiated a settlement with the Big 12 to leave on July 1, 2011. The following day (June 11), Nebraska applied for membership in the Big Ten Conference and was unanimously accepted, becoming the Big Ten's twelfth member, effective July 1, 2011.[16] The Conference's collapse appeared imminent in the immediate aftermath of Colorado and Nebraska's departure as Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and Texas A&M were reportedly close to accepting invitations to join the Pac-10. However, on June 14, the five schools announced that they had decided to stay in the Big 12 after apparently agreeing to an eleventh-hour deal to save the conference.[17] The decisions, which reportedly came after furious lobbying by the five remaining schools (Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, and Missouri) and intervention by athletic directors around the country who were concerned about the prospect of a 16-team "superconference", were driven by a restructured revenue sharing agreement and the promise of a lucrative new television deal.[18] As part of the deal, Texas was permitted to launch its own television network, the Longhorn Network, which would broadcast Texas Longhorn sporting events including non-conference football games and at least one conference football game. Additionally, Texas A&M and Oklahoma ended contact with the Southeastern Conference who had been pursuing both schools as potential candidates if their conference decided to expand past 12 members.[19]

On June 16, 2010, Texas state lawmakers Garnet Coleman and Bill Callegari, both from the Houston area, co-wrote a letter asking Big 12 officials to consider adding the University of Houston (currently in Conference USA) to the conference.[20][dead link]

2011

In August of 2011, Texas A&M announced plans to apply to join another unspecified conference.[21] Texas A&M's desire to leave the Big 12 Conference was reportedly driven by archrival Texas' increasingly dominant position within the conference and concerns that the Longhorn Network would give Texas an unfair advantage in recruiting and other aspects of competitio n.[22] Southeastern Conference officials voted to accept Texas A&M as its 13th member,[23] conditional upon a reaffirmation that the remaining Big 12 schools would not pursue legal action to block the move.[24] Iowa State[25] Baylor, [26] Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, and Oklahoma State will reportedly waive their rights to pursue legal action against the Southeastern Conference only if Oklahoma remains in the Big 12 Conference.[27] The teams could potentially sue the Southeastern Conference for tortious interference, which means that one party intentionally interferes with a contract between other parties.[25]

The Big 12 Conference said it would form a committee to replace Texas A&M with at least one other school.[21] Some of the schools that journalists have speculated the Big 12 Conference may invite include Brigham Young University,[28][29] Southern Methodist University,[30] University of Houston,[31] [32] University of Arkansas,[33] University of Pittsburgh,[33] and the University of Notre Dame.[33] While Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are reportedly considering a move to the Pacific-12 Conference,[34] Pacific-12 Conference Commissioner Larry Scott hopes that his conference does not add any schools.[35] Scott said that his conference has not reached out to any schools, but some schools have reached out to his conference.[36]

On September 19, The Associated Press reported that a merger between the Big East and Big 12 was possible. The individual source, who is involved with the discussion, spoke only on the condition of anonymity because the merger discussion were not meant to be public.[37]

The Big 12 Conference distributes revenue, mostly collected from television contracts, bowl games, the NCAA, merchandise, licensing, and conference-hosted sporting events, annually to member institutions.[56] From 1996 to 2011, 57 percent of all distributed revenue was allotted equally; with the other 43 percent distributed based upon the number of football and men's basketball television appearances and other factors.[57][58] The 2011 annual meeting of the conference resulted in a distribution of 76 percent equal allotment and 24 percent based on television appearances. Changing the revenue-sharing arrangement requires a unanimous vote; as a Big 12 member, Nebraska had withheld support for more equitable revenue distribution.[57]

With this exposure-based revenue-sharing model, larger schools in the conference, such as the University of Texas, can receive more revenue because television channels will schedule such schools more frequently than smaller schools that may have less national audience appeal. In 2006, for example, Texas received $10.2 million, 44% more than Baylor University's $7.1 million.[citation needed]

Compared to other conferences, the Big 12's revenue is low for a BCS conference; this is due in part to television contracts signed with Fox Sports Net (four years for $48 million) and ABC/ESPN (eight years for $480 million) that are set to expire in 2012 and 2016, respectively. In comparison, the Southeastern Conference collects four times as much per year, an estimated $3 billion over 15 year from its contracts with ESPN and CBS.[59]

Revenue sharing remains a critical issue, and it remains to be seen whether the conference can survive with such unbalanced revenue sharing. While universities such as Texas receive a robust share, schools such as Baylor and Iowa State receive much less. There are growing fears that this creates an unsustainable system that could jeopardize the future of the league.[citation needed]

Sports

As of the upcoming 2011–12 academic year, the conference sponsors championships in the following sports: baseball (m), basketball (m,w), cross-country (m,w), equestrian (w), football (m), golf (m,w), gymnastics (w), rowing (w), soccer (w), softball (w), swimming and diving (m,w), tennis (m,w), track and field (m,w), volleyball (w), wrestling (m). The most recently added sports were equestrian and rowing, previously unofficial sports, which will make their debut as fully-sponsored sports with official championships in 2011-12.[4]

Among the sponsored sports, all ten universities participate in 12 sports, while the following sports do not have full participation:

  • 9 schools participate in volleyball (Oklahoma State does not)
  • 9 schools participate in women's soccer (Kansas State does not)
  • 9 schools participate in baseball (Iowa State dropped its intercollegiate program following the 2001 season)
  • 9 schools participate in softball (Kansas State does not)
  • 5 schools participate in men's tennis (Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech)
  • 5 schools participate in women's swimming and diving (Kansas, Iowa State, Missouri, Texas, and Texas A&M)
  • 4 schools participate in wrestling (Iowa State, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State)
  • 3 schools participate in gymnastics (Iowa State, Missouri, and Oklahoma)
  • 3 schools participate in men's swimming and diving (Missouri, Texas, and Texas A&M)

The following member schools participate in sports that will receive full Big 12 recognition as of 2011–12:

  • 4 schools participate in equestrian (Baylor, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and Texas A&M)[60]
  • 4 schools participate in rowing (Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, and Texas). Previously, those schools competed as affiliate members of Conference USA.[61]

Football

Main article: Big 12 Conference football

From 1996-2010, Big 12 Conference teams played eight conference games a season. Each team faced all five opponents within its own division and three teams from the opposite division. Inter-divisional play was a "three-on, three-off" system, where teams would play three teams from the other division on a home-and-home basis for two seasons, and then play the other three foes from the opposite side for a two-year home-and-home.

This format came under considerable criticism, especially from fans at Nebraska and Oklahoma, who were denied a yearly matchup between two of college football's most storied programs.[citation needed] The Oklahoma–Nebraska rivalry was one of the most intense rivalries in college football history.[citation needed] (Until 2006, the teams had never met in the Big 12 Championship.) Due to the departure of Nebraska and Colorado in 2011, the Big 12 eliminated the divisions (and championship game) and instituted a nine-game round-robin.

Championship Game

Main article: Big 12 Championship Game

The Big 12 Championship Game was held by the Big 12 Conference each year. The championship game pitted the Big 12 North Division champion against the Big 12 South Division champion in a game held after the regular season has been completed. The first championship game was held during the 1996 season. Since the 1996 season, most football championship games were held at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. The final game was played in Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which had also hosted the previous games, with the Oklahoma Sooners defeating the Nebraska Cornhuskers 23-20.[citation needed] NCAA allows conferences with at least twelve teams to hold a conference championship game; as the Big 12 Conference has ten teams as of 2011, the conference will not have a championship game in 2011.

Rivalries

The Big 12 Conference has many rivalries among its member schools, primarily in football. Most of the rivalries existed before the Big 12 was established. The Kansas-Missouri rivalry is the longest running in the Big 12, being played for 119 years; however the Texas–Oklahoma rivalry is also unique, as it too was a major rivalry decades before the two schools were in the same conference. Some of the longstanding football rivalries between Big 12 schools include:

Men's basketball

From 1996-2011, standings in conference play were combined and not split among divisions, the schedule was structured as if the schools were split into two divisions. Teams played a home-and-home against teams within its division and a single game against teams from the opposite division for a total of 16 conference games. This denied Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, formerly in the Big Eight, two games a season against their opponents from that former conference, but did allow most of the other traditional rivalries to be played home-and-home. However, after the departures of Nebraska and Colorado, Big 12 play will transition to an 18-game, double round robin schedule, allowing Oklahoma and Oklahoma State to once again play their former Big 8 rivals twice each season, in addition to adding second annual games to lucrative, nationally prominent series like Texas-Kansas.[citation needed]
