OU, OSU Will Soon Join Colorado Parade

Colorado, rumored to be headed west for 50 years, finally did it.
The Buffs are leading the parade of former Big 12 teams to the Pac-10 and soon Oklahoma and Oklahoma State will join Colorado.
Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech are also expected to join in the westward exodus.
The way this conference shake-up has gone, it shouldn't take OU and OSU very long to hop on board and accept a spot in the expanded Pac-10.
Colorado was likely the first to jump to fend off any rumors that Baylor might be included in the Pac-10 expansion instead of Colorado.
For now, Colorado is at the head of the westward expansion.
Expect Oklahoma and Oklahoma State to be close behind.

I agree totally its going to get dang near impossible to deal with Texas and their egos. Eventually the Oklahoma powers that be will figure out to stand up to their big bad bully called the Texas Longhorns. They need us as much as we ned them. I say lets move to the Pac 16 with Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. Now take Texas Tech or Texas as long as they get treated the exact same way as any other member of the Pac 16. No other conditions or concessations. If they don't we can always take BYU and say goodby to the longhorns. I won't miss a moment of sleep.
