You know the Death Star was owned and operated by the self righteous evil characters, right?

Do it, don't talk about it. Hell, if you had Wisconsin's defenses you might have won a couple of nattys in the 2010s

Likewise. If wiscy had any offense other than/alongside those expensive running backs, they might have won their conference a bit more in the last 40 years.
 
Welp....I guess all you BigXII also-rans will get at least 3 more cracks at that trophy.

Good luck! (you won’t need it, let’s be cereal)

No doubt. Both schools have reputations for being one sided.

That said we do have 6 conference titles since 1993. Not a total washout

The question is do any of those other schools in the Big 12 really amount to anything, as far as earning the AAC more tv revenue? Let's say hypothetically Kansas and ISU go to the B1G. You're left with Oklahoma State, Kansas State, TCU, Texas Tech, Baylor and then WVU. Take WVU out of the equation. If 3 of them join the AAC, are combined they worth an additional 20+ Million per year for the AAC? My guess is probably not. Maybe some combination of two Texas schools and Oklahoma State. But it's questionable.

I guess it comes down to if you'd rather make the money, the best bet is probably independence. But if you want better access to the CFP, it probably means you gotta go G5.

Not 20+ million but the Big 12 schools plus UCF, Memphis, South Florida and Houston and they will have interest.

FYI ... I approve of my nickname. Badge of honor that you've gotten into someone's head so bad they make up an awesome nickname for you!

And you are correct in your post for the first time ever ... makes sense you would be agreeing with me.

If you have to tell yourself you are in someone’s head when they call you a douche then that’s on you.

Your statement for the first time ever in this place was correct. It only took you this long. Nor is it that difficult to understand.

Yeah, fuck all those teams.
They have lived off the big boys all of their fucking life.

As I said, they had 100 years to be somebody and make themselves relevant, but they didn't, and now they want to cry about it.

Fuck Them

When are the other conferences "tit providers" going to get fed up with their "tit suckers"?

Streaming doesn't affect the value of markets. It's just a different way of delivering content. When you assign value to a market, it's how many eyeballs, and in particular buying eyeballs you have. If that's the cost of a stream, or advertising, at the end of the day what matters is how many people are consuming the content. While the state of WV, or its largest cities are no prize, it could be that you have enough rabid WVU fans that it would make sense to get into the ACC. Also, it's not like WV eyeballs are shared ... I would guess most WVU residents that have televisions are WVU fans. Maybe a few Marshal fans, I suppose.

And here you go right back to being wrong. Streaming will absolutely affect the value of markets when no cable company can charge what they want because their past customers are now streaming.

I'm saying this if the ACC isn't an option. Putting all your sports in the AAC or CUSA or a G5 conference will already significantly decrease the amount of money you'll make from TV revenue. AAC schools make just under 7 million a year off their tv deal. Could WVU strike up a deal with ESPN/NBC/CBS for 6 million a year, and then get the additional 3 million from other sports being in the Big East? Idk, but I'd rather do that than put the rest of my sports in a G5 league.

WVU can’t and won’t do something like that. They would want the garunteed income from a conference for football. They wouldn’t be able to fill half their schedule.

Realignment Rumors: SEC Will Overwhelmingly Approve Texas, OU

College conference realignment talk went from relatively dormant to the talk of the town literally overnight this week after the Houston Chronicle reported that Texas and Oklahoma

They get paid good money for that.
How they use that money is up to them.

If they haven't made major improvements to their programs, that's on them, and it doesn't matter until they all of a sudden, they find themselves needing to make a move, like the remaining Big 12 members.

Ever since we lost Nebraska/Missouri/A&M/Colorado, I knew this conference was never going to make it. It's limped along for years. The writing was on the wall.
 
Alabama is on a tier by themselves. But Oklahoma is currently a minimum top 3 team in the SEC.

Depth is still an issue.

From where all programs currently stand, the only team other than Bama that has a case to be higher than OU is UGA. If last year was a blip and LSU returns to 2019 form, then you can drop everyone else down a spot.
 
I have heard from you people for years that the Conferences you want to join are the BIG and the PAC, just for the fact of the Research Dollars associated with being part of their Conferences. How does the SEC stack up to that. Football is great, but the Universities have to thrive.
