In 1994, Texas and Texas A&M struck a deal to change conferences, but not to the Pac-10 or SEC. They, along with Baylor and Texas Tech, left the SWC to join the Big 8 schools and form the Big 12. The SWC became defunct in 1996.

The feud between the teams started in 1894 then ran uninterrupted from World War I until a memorable 2011 game and a bitter realignment-driven split.
