I'd guess that Texas and Oklahoma probably have standing offers to the Pac 12 and SEC (and probably both to the Big Ten, but certainly Texas does).

Oklahoma State probably can go SEC or Pac 12 with Oklahoma.

Texas Tech can probably go to the Pac 12 with Texas and possibly with Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.

Missouri, Kansas, KSU, and Iowa State were voted on and approved by Big East presidents last fall, before TCU wass added. I would guess that Missouri, Kansas, and KSU still have an open invite and Iowa State probably does, as well. Kansas and Missouri may be possibilities for the Pac 12, if better options fall through, and are longshots for the Big Ten. Missouri is a longshot, but possibility for the SEC or ACC.

Baylor is probably SOL.

Texas and/or Oklahoma have enough gravity to anchor a BCS conference with a mishmash of non-AQ teams and BCS leftovers, if they so choose, I would imagine.
