We are 4th overall. The top 3 overall teams are in the Pac and they value Olympic sports. It's odd, we are where we are now because schools good at football 50 years ago set up a system where it's almost impossible to break into their ranks. But because we were good at wrestling 50 years ago we might have a lifeline.

In the last 50 years FSU, Miami and Utah went from relatively obscurity to legit P5 contenders.

Its no one else’s fault you‘ve won one conference title in 27 years. You had the money to compete, you had the coaches and you‘ve had the athletes to do it.

That's a true fan base. Isn't Nebraska that way as well?

I view it differently than most. I would say Iowa State fans are far more loyal. Part of my view is based on going to a college in Nebraska.
 
Its a really good thing that ISU has come on strong the last few years in football.

But it's Coaching driven and not Program driven, which means that when Matt Campbell leaves, it is most likely that ISU will fall off the map again.

That's not a lot of variance among the opponents. I mean if the difference between OU and Tech is only 222 fans, that's pretty impressive IMHO.

Is it similar with OOC games? In a lot of places a poor OOC opponent doesn't get the draw.

2019 had 3 OOC home Games:

Northern Iowa and Iowa both were packed at 61,500, and UL-Monroe had 57,442.

I went to all 3 games.
 
...speaking of cock power, how's about mr turkeyeagleplainsmantigertrees sit the fuck down and quit flapping his cockholster. Awwbern really shouldn't be attempting to dictate jack fucking shit. We'll take this cute little wagon with these cute little ponies and trample your birds, plains, tigers, trees, sheepwives or what have you until there's nothing left but a stain.

...bish.

Have you not figured out that Tennessee will no longer be able to use the UT moniker?

UT in the SEC will soon belong to tejas and will be fought for with feverish passion right up there with the 'No Horns Down' rule.

Texas should change to “TX” with respect to the seniority and volunteers of Tennessee.

Of course the NCAA makes more money off basketball, because the NCAA doesn't get any of the D1 football money, so some is always going to be more than none.

Regular season college basketball tv rights are like nuts on a Sundae...they come with it, but most people would still buy the Sundae with no nuts, and the number of people that wouldn't buy the Sundae with no nuts is negligible.

Well yeah, if you want to call a 3/4 of $1 billion/year tournament "some".

I get that college basketball is not popular in the vast majority of the SEC country. Hence it not getting many eyeballs and cast aside in favor of putting nuts on their sister's chins en sech.
Since these media rights deals are fluid year to year, it's potentially at least part of the reason there's a $54 million - $45 million per team payout ratio between Big 10 and SEC schools.
That Kevin Warren permitted Big 10 teams to play an OOC schedule in basketball (a contact sport) and not Baseball (a non contact sport) during covid supports that. He knows where there's revenue to be made.
College baseball is big in SEC country, but it's not 'media rights' big anywhere. You don't see college baseball on ESPN/FOX etc during the regular season like you do basketball which is on ESPN, ESPN2, FOX, etc damn near every night nationally. College baseball's limited to conference networks which are a separate entity. So is 'NCAA Basketball Tournament' revenue and a conferences media rights basketball revenue. Completely separate.
College baseball finally shows up on ESPN 2 come June when the 64 team baseball tournament starts. Not even all regionals or super regionals games are aired. That is truly where there's no real money to be made.

Play each (3) in your POD every season.
Rotate playing 2 from every other POD yearly (or every two years?).
That’s 9 conference games.
Prolly best to take the Top 2 teams by conference records to play in the CCG (break ties by CFP ranking???)

This.
because playing the same seven teams in your division every year and only two of the other (one being the same every year) is way too boring comparatively.

Not buying it and you shouldn't be selling it.

It was conferences that 'set up a system where it's almost impossible to break thru their ranks'. Okie jr's been in that 'system' the entire time. They joined the Big 8 in 1959 so it's actually been 60 years for your opportunities.

It's mid-majors (a.k.a G5 schools) that have had difficulty breaking through that 'system'.
Pick any one of the Top 5 G5's and I bet they finish .500 minimum in any P5 conference.
