Have to agree with you on the Nebraska smell test issue.  Especially as they were losing their AAU status simultaneously with Syracuse.
 
I agree that OU is NOT joined at the hip with Texas, they have a great rivlary and want to continue it, but OU attempted to leave Texas to join the Pac 12, but was given the cold shoulder.  Facts have never been a strong suit with WVU fans.
 
OU freaked over the LHN, but that was over two issues: Using teh LHN as a recruiting tool and as means of ensuring they would get a network deal done, too.
 
OU has the eyes of the SEC on them.  They can land there safely (which is one reason thatI believe that the SEC has not moved on FSU/Clemson, OU/FSU is MUCH better!).  I think that OU is realistic and knowing that they will have a real opportunity at the conference championship almost yearly keeps them willing to play Texas' game with the Big 12.  I do belive they know that Texas is just as likely to blow up the Big 12 as to keep iot together, which explains why they are pro-expansion, especially with respectable football schools.  Regardless, the UT/OU rivlary wil probably continue whatever happens, that rivalry was far more important than the UT/TAMU rivalry.
