For 2014, the South Central added six new teams, while two teams from 2013 left the Conference. The Conference was divided into North (Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Joplin, and Liverpool) and South (Fort Worth, Dallas, BCS, San Antonio) Divisions, with four teams in each division. Each team played the other three teams twice, once home and once away, and the four teams in the other division once, two home and two away, randomly selected.
