The Big 12 Conference is welcoming a new member to its ranks, as the University of Colorado has officially joined the conference. This move comes as the Pac-12 Conference suffers another loss, as the Buffaloes have decided to leave the Pac-12 after being a member since 2011.
The move to the Big 12 is a big one for Colorado, as it will give them access to more resources and a larger platform for their athletic programs. The Buffaloes have been a competitive team in the Pac-12, but they have not been able to reach the same level of success as some of the other teams in the conference. With the move to the Big 12, Colorado will now have access to more resources and a better chance at competing for championships.
The move also comes at a time when the Pac-12 is struggling. The conference has been hit hard by the pandemic, with teams having to cancel or postpone games due to health and safety concerns. The conference has also seen several teams leave in recent years, with Colorado being the latest. The Pac-12 is also facing criticism for its handling of the pandemic, with some questioning why the conference has not done more to protect its players and coaches.
The move to the Big 12 is a big one for Colorado, and it could be a sign of things to come for the Pac-12. With more teams leaving and the conference struggling, it remains to be seen if the Pac-12 can turn things around and become a competitive conference once again. For now, Colorado is looking forward to joining the Big 12 and competing for championships.
