OU and aTm would be smart to give up the game with Texas if it gets them to the SEC without UT. It will place a huge wedge in Texas' ability to sell anything new. Texas will continue to be Texas but OU and aTm being able to say they are in the SEC will benefit them in recruiting. Add the increased exposure in the state of Texas for the SEC and Texas would look ridiculous trying to rile up their fanbase for a game against UCLA, Arizona, and Oregon St. Nobody would care.
This is the thing
If OU and A&M realize what kind of hand they are holding then they could actually be the ones to dictate terms
Texas (and Texas Tech and Ok state) is the one that benefits by keeping the big 12 south together.

quote:Exactly. A&M joining Texas benefits Texas, not A&M. A&M benefits greatly by going to a different conference because they can sell something different to recruits instead of Texas Lite. Texas is terrified of A&M asserting its independence and making Texas look politically weak, which is why they are issuing threats.

If this was what was best for A&M, they wouldn't have to threaten them. They could sell the benefit.
