Austin didn't "win" anything. The owner of the Crew wanted to move the team to Austin. Austin didn't ask for a team. Heck, it was specifically stated is a clause in the ownership agreement executed in 2013 (I think) when PSV took over the team in Columbus.
Since the MLS owns every team, and agreed to the clause, they knew they wanted to be in Austin long before SA even put an expansion bid together. The MLS simply would rather be in Austin than SA. And that's the fact.
