Yeah, that would be the potential complicating factor. It's already assumed that any conference that takes Texas has to take Texas A&M. That's doable, but if Texas Tech & Baylor are also requirements, that pretty much kills the incentive to grab Texas.

I also wonder how much Texas would insist on Oklahoma coming along too so they don't have to make the Red River Shootout an OOC game...
