Conferences don't fold when they're perceived as strong.
The problems with the Big 12 are the same problems that the SWC had in the last 10 years of its life, with one team dominating the conference (A&M), one former power falling apart (Texas), the bottom falling out of two potential powers (SMU, Baylor), a one-hit wonder (Houston), and an unappreciated school ready to leave (Arkansas), plus the remainder of teams who never were (TCU, Rice, Texas Tech)
The last SWC Champion to win a Cotton Bowl? Texas A&M in 1988.
If the Big 12 keeps getting exposed by better opponents in bowl games (Oklahoma State 2011 nonwithstanding...absolutely stupid coaching move by David Shaw at the end of that game), they will suffer the same fate as the SWC = Top teams getting CRUSHED in major games.
Oklahoma State and Oklahoma must win in January or the perception will continue.
