After the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners announced their impending departure from the Big 12 Conference for the SEC, the realignment dominoes have continued falling across both FBS and FCS football, with at least three programs moving up to FBS so far.

Middle Tennessee is sticking with C-USA.
