Would it be bad if Oklahoma and Oklahoma State joined the SEC? Let Texas, TCU and whoever go to the Pacific Coast and West Virginia back to the ACC. Kansas with their basketball may fit in the Big 10.

I'd actually like OU in the SEC. They'd be in a pod type system with Mizzou, Arkansas, and I guess A&M. While typically siding with Bevo, they have tried to push back as well. When the Big 12 expanded after Mizzou & A&M left, they really pushed for Louisville over WV. They of course lost, but they tried.
OSU - I really don't know. They'd fit, but they go against the TV/one school/state argument for expanding that seems to be the rule.

It wouldn't increase team payouts and it wouldn't raise conference academics, so I can't see why the SEC would do it.
OSU is in Stillwater, a tiny market. You'd add practically nothing if you already had OU.
Also, strong healthy conferences just don't double up in a state the size of OK. They just sit back and wait for flagships and Blueblood to come asking.
If OU can find OSU a home somewhere else, or if OU decides to go elsewhere, I don't think the SEC will care.
