The Colorado Buffaloes are moving to the Big 12. The Big 12 has approved of Colorado’s return to the conference. Colorado’s board of regents voted to leave the Pac-12 and join the Big 12 on Thursday afternoon.
Our friends at Buffaloes Wire have the details:
“By a unanimous vote of 9-0, the University of Colorado board of regents approved the school’s decision to leave the Pac-12 and rejoin the Big 12 ahead of the 2024-25 academic year.
“The board met on Thursday afternoon and university president Todd Saliman opened with a statement confirming Colorado’s move. ‘We think the time has come to change conferences,’ Saliman said.”
