I've always wanted to see a SEC football game but it's hard to do without missing any Redbird games. But now with Oklahoma joining the SEC you don't have to choose. Illinois State is opening the 2025 season in Norman, Oklahoma. How cool is that! It's not exactly clear when Okla and Texas will officially join but I think it will happen before the 2025 season. No one benefits from a long-term lame duck status. This is was great get for Redbird FB scheduling as a Big 12 member and even better one as a SEC game. MUST SEE!
