What would the B12 get realistically? I think that’s a good question Too. Obviously they won’t get 75 per team a year, but they can’t be doing it for almost nothing either.
The math has to be that making them stay to the end brings more money to the B12 than letting them leave early and pay a penalty. I think that would be some pretty easy math for them to run.
Thats the x factor, what/how much is network X willing to give the Big12 or PAC ect. in the new era? These moves we are seeing would indicate that the value of live content is on the rise and the new contracts are supposed to be astronomical so, sure the big brands in the B12 and PAC are gone BUT the networks STILL want live content, football in particular so how much is it worth to them?
Absolutely but I think the B12 will hold on to what they have for 3 years if that worth to the networks doesn’t match what they have now. Just my opine though
42.6 per but that doesn’t include tier 3. Getting as many suitors is the best bet. Plus they’ll have 2 extra teams. (At least right now) If they can come close to 30 per I think they’d be good contract to take given the circumstance. I doubt they get that though.
Dunno if they knew what they were talking about or not but some radio state sport guys in WV said they guessed around 15mm per post OU and Texas right after it was announced that they were leaving.
UCF Baylor will probably draw more than Texas Tech vs Houston...cept for us Lone Star Staters.
I tune into these kinds of games to get a laugh.
With the exception of some BYU games, the new Big 12 match ups ain't bringing in the bacon whether it is scheduled before or after the Notre Dame game. If such match ups could bring in the bacon, they'd be in a position to get more money on their own anyway.
Testimony from ooym as evidence.
It's always one of two kinds of games.
It depends on rankings and how teams are doing. If your argument is ”well that’s not a brand name so I’ll never watch.” then yeah it’s going to falter. But If it’s we got a top 15 matchup with Baylor visiting Cincinnati at the noon spot, watch ND at 3:30 or 4 and then a top 10 Oklahoma State visits Provo then it could workout, at least some. I understand it won’t be perfect but but it could be a chance to compete.
No you don’t, you want so bad for UT to leave now and the B12 to be dissolved.
It wouldn't hurt my feelings to be honest
Ohh I get it, but this jackass saying he hopes UT stays another 3 seasons is absolute bullshit. He has been trying to figure out a way that the PAC could take some B12 members and kill off the conference ever since you both announced the horrid exit. (Horrid for me, not you)
