Well, the day has finally come. Texas and Oklahoma have left the Big 12 for the SEC, leaving some teams in the Big 12 feeling pretty upset, and one of them was TCU, a new rival to the conference.
TCU Joined The Big 12 In 2012
In 2012, TCU jumped from the Mountain West Conference to the Big 12, making it to one of the power conferences after making itself a powerhouse. TCU knows what it feels like to leave all its friends in one conference and join another, and on Monday, it posted a sad goodbye video to Texas and Oklahoma.
TCU Says Goodbye
TCU posted a video on its social media account of a clip from the movie Toy Story Three showing Andy, who owns all the toys, growing old and giving them to a friend. In the video, you see him driving away. They put the Texas and Oklahoma logos in Andy’s car and all the logos of the Big 12 teams on the toys, and they are watching the car drive off.

It is a pretty sad video, but the best part was the highlights from TCU sporting events against Texas and Oklahoma, which showed the Horned Frogs beating the two schools.
The Horned Frogs now have the chance to take over the Big 12 without Texas and Oklahoma. They are one of two schools in the conference to make the College Football Playoff, with Cincinnati being the other.
