What happens to the Big 12 (-2) if another team leaves?

Can the Big 12 survive the loss of A&M? Do other teams bolt too or do they try to add members?
My thoughts are that they could possibly add one other team (not sure who. I bet they would love to get ND). If they lose more than A&M, it's over.

The Big XII met yesterday. Said they will either stay at 9 or invite 1 more school. They won't invite more than 1. OU and UTa dint want a title game.
Mizzou pledged they were staying but if Mizzou finds an out then the conference is in trouble

They'll survive until they lose Missouri or start looking at a new TV contract in 5 years or whatever.
Missouri is the last team left with close (potential) BCS conference options.
ND isn't joining any conference, let alone a dying big 12. Texas likes to throw Arkansas out there as potential dream scenario expansion targets too, which is in the hell freezing over area also.

Says here, "If A&M were to leave, the Big 12 could consider Houston as a replacement to the TV market."

I think they need bigger market teams right now to survive. That means adding on Boise, TCU, BYU-like teams would fill slots but not enough market share. (And yes I know Boise and TCU just signed with new conferences)...

It's pretty obvious Texass is just too damn good to be affiliated with any conference.They're goal is to be an independent.
