Yeah, that's what they said for years about Oklahoma/Nebraska, but for
OU the more important annual game was Texas, even when it was a
non-conference game.

Unless Notre Dame changes its mind, I don't see the Big 10 actively seeking
a 12th team.  (Missouri has come up a few times, it fits into the academic
model of the Big 10 better than some other possible candidates.)

And if the stupid '2 team' rule for the BCS is dropped, as it SHOULD
have been to include Wisconsin, who needs a conference championship game?
