The Southwest Conference (SWC) was one of the older collegiate conferences in the United States existing from 1914 to 1996, the first meet being in 1915 (1917 was rained out). Formally named the Southwest Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, its core members were all schools from Texas except for Arkansas & Oklahoma. The conference's long period of stability and athletic success started to decline throughout the 1980s due in part to numerous member schools violating NCAA recruiting rules, culminating in the suspension of the entire SMU football program ("death penalty").
