Where exactly would OU go? Oklahoma doesn't have enough TV market to make them a worthy expansion target.

B1G. Their academics don't quite fit in, but after Nebraska was dropped from AAU in 2011 I'm not sure that's as important. (Talking out my butt here. I really have no idea what the B1G is looking for.) Oklahoma is a hell of a lot better school than Oklahoma State, but there's the rub. T. Boone probably has to die before those two schools can part ways.

Agree, mostly. But then Oklahoma is over twice as large as Nebraska.

Given contraction of the current cable business model, it might be wise for a conference to focus on content rather than markets. If the cord-cutting continues and only real sports fans are buying the product online or a-la-carte, then you need the big draws to earn the dollars.
OU, Clemson, FSU, and UTexsa provide that desirable content.
