Nebraska is a national power in football a top 10 program of all-time. The Big 12 didn't divide revenue equally and Texas basically made the decision to create the LHN over the objections of several schools aTm and Nebraska among them. The B1G wanted to expand to a 12th team. Notre Dame wasn't jumping so the B1G decided take Nebraska and power football program over the Missouri who only brought the STL and KC markets and doesn't have the national cache that Nebraska has. Nebraska HAS NO POWER to get Texas or Oklahoma into the B1G, and they honestly are happy where they are at. The  B1G created an additional revenue to the tune of 25 million per year from Fox to televise the Conference Championship game in Indianapolis. That 25 million per year alone justified Nebraska's inclusion unless any new school will bring that the B1G won't expand anymore. Only 2 programs out there could create that revenue Texas and Notre Dame and neither are looking at the B1G right now because Texas has a "Tech" problem as the Freedom of Information Act disclosed in an email between UT prez and Ohio St. prez and Notre Dame has already publicly denied an invitation in 1999 and won't join until they are forced to by NCAA law or something.
