I think Texas/OU (and the Prairie View/Grambling) matchup are staying for the short term, after the city sweetened the pot. Jones managed to torpedo a plan to bring in a Texas Tech game. Everything else has been switched to the new Jones stadium in Arlington.

The ONLY reason why the Texas-Oklahoma game is still played at the Cotton Bowl is the fact the Cotton Bowl stadium is located at Fair Park in Dallas and played during the run of the Texas State Fair. Unless Jerry Jones can figure out a way to move circa 90,000 fans between the new Cowboys Stadium and Fair Park, this famous rivalry game will continue to stay at the Cotton Bowl.
