Texas is obviously (along with Notre Dame) the big prize out there. I have little doubt that if the Big-10 goes big and starts carving pieces out of the Big-12, the feeding frenzy will be on - the Pac-10 will have to try to grab Texas (and A&M) and whatever else it can get from the remains of the Big-12 in order to stay competitive with the Big-10 and SEC (which will also be looking at trying to grab Texas and A&M).
This is assuming the Pac-10 has the guts to make the bold move, but they have to realize they will be in a precarious position when the dominoes start falling, and merging with/absorbing parts of the Big-12 is their ultimate path to survival.
