I don't think the Big 8 could have survived (as a top-tier or near-top-tier conference) this long without embracing the Texas schools. Maybe there was a better way to absorb Texas and aTm without shifting the center of gravity to Dallas and making the northern teams afterthoughts, but the Big 8 needed Texas to survive, IMO.
