The only issue is whether the SEC wants to have to deal with T. Boone Pickens but that shouldn't be an issue too much longer. He's getting old.
Of course Oklahoma State would be open to it. I'm saying that from a competitive balance standpoint, there's no way the conference would ever do that. 5 of the top 6 historical programs in the conference would be in the East.
