Then you failed to understand what's going on. No one is kicking anyone out. The threat is this: "we have an all-but-guaranteed invite to the PAC-10. Pledge loyalty now, or we will leave, and you'll be left hoping and praying the invite from the Big 10 really does come."
It really is a clever effort to keep the conference alive. Is Nebraska (no one cares about Missouri, leave, stay, whatever) willing to gamble on a maybe with no fallback plan?
