The only thing that matters here is $$$$, which is viewership and eyes on the screen. Texas and OU are both top 5 media draws. Adding that to the SEC makes everyone lots MORE money. And with the expansion to 12 Playoff teams, you'll see 3 loss SEC teams getting in before 2 loss Big 12 teams, which is more money and more revenue.
The Big 12 is going no where and will die. They've already been making phone calls to other schools and are being told to bugger off.
How would Texas and Oklahoma lose a ton of money if the AAC and Big 12 join up? That makes zero Sense. They wouldn't make as much as they would in the SEC but they wouldn't lose money either.
Also why does Texas or Oklahoma need the SEC. Like you said they are two top 5 draws in all of college Football. They would be successful in any conference and any conference would make a shit ton of money.
