College golf: Conference moves aren’t just limited to the Big 12 and SEC
In golf, conference championships can be a gateway to the postseason. Win the conference title, and a team gets an Automatic Qualifying spot in an NCAA Regional. It’s one reason so much conference movement of late is such an interesting topic in college golf.
Teams like Oklahoma and Texas, which recently announced their departure from the Big 12 in favor of the SEC (effective in 2025, or potentially sooner), have made national headlines across sports. But outside of such visible moves, there’s still plenty of shuffling.
Below, check out the conference-by-conference breakdown, with teams joining and leaving each conference indicated in the chart.

Editor’s note: Some of these moves are happening this season, and some will happen in upcoming seasons.
