Expand the Almighty SEC

With the "Big 12" losing a couple if teams to other conferences, it is plausible they could just do away with the "Big 12" all together eventually. What teams would you want to absorb. I would love to see Texas, Oklahoma, Texas Tech and Texas A&M. Not so much OSU, just to keep bigger schools in the SEC and split the divisions between Mississippi and Alabama.
Who would y'all want out of Big 12?

the conference is already hard enough, we dont need anymore

A&M in the west as far as Big 12 Va Tech in the east would be a good balance.

Do not want expansion. Don't care what other teams or conferences do.

No expansion, I don't want a team from Texas and another team from florida selling the SEC to recruits.

frick expansion. The SEC doesn't need it and the conference is already ridiculously difficult.

I say no expansion. I like the conference just the way it is.

Texas and Texas A&M. For TV and recruiting it'd be so well worth it!
West
Arkansas
Alabama
Mississippi
Mississippi State
Texas
Texas A&M
LSU
East
Auburn
Florida
Georgia
Kentucky
South Carolina
Tennessee
Vanderbilt
Do away with the permanent east-west division opponent and rotate 2 out-of-division opponents every two years. No additional SEC opponent is added to the schedule.
ETA: Forgot about the Iron Bowl. Ok, 1 permanent opponent and rotate 1? Bleah, this is giving me a headache.

First off, I am 100% against expanding the SEC. It is perfect as is. It would be like trying to enhance Michelangelo's David...But, if we were forced to expand, I would only like to add two more teams. I am completely against adding any Big 12/10 teams...especially any Texas schools. I would prefer to add two schools that are already in current SEC states. I would want Clemson and Florida State. If we couldn't get them, my next two choices would be Georgia Tech and North Carolina (I know it would be hard to get UNC to leave the ACC and Duke, but it would be worth a shot).

I could see Texas, a&m, gtech, vtech to balance east & west.

The Big 12 is now The Big Austin conference.
If I was Okie and/or A&M, I see no reason to stay to play clearly designated second banana to Texas.
If the SEC expands, I want it to expand to 16 with the addition of Okie, A&M, Va Tech and one academic softie (Tulane?).
Let Ga Tech (who left the SEC years ago) and F$U (who refused to join the SEC years ago) stew in their pathetic ACC juices.

don't fix what isn't broken keep the SEC as is.

I think some more of the "Big 12" will leave because of the stupid Texas Network. When will there be a SEC Network on tv
