Who knows what the actual conference bylaws are, but at the least this is a "we can't stop you (Nebraska and Iowa) from playing, but we can dissolve your membership if you annoy us..." sort of thing.

With the way regional culture has evolved over the last hundred years, Nebraska and Iowa both fit better in the big 12 then the big 10, but there is no way those schools would ever consider jeopardizing their big 10 membership for one extra year of football let alone consider permanently changing conferences,

I disagree.

I'd never have thought Texas A&M would dream of cutting ties with Texas, but it's happened.

Nebraska tossed about a century's worth of history and tradition to the curb when they left Oklahoma. That didn't work out so well, this might actually be a good time for them to hit the reset button.
The Big 12 is full of teams that would love to play them again, while the Big 10 doesn't really give a shite about them one way or the other.
