If you had to put a number on the media rights where do you think it comes in?

I think somewhere between $55m - $65m. Which on a per game basis, puts it at about half of what NBC gave to the B1G, which I think is reasonable. ND has too many crap games IMO to warrant much more than that.

I will say, this year is the perfect time to renegotiate. Week have Navy in Week 0(the only game on at the time), which I can see getting about 8+ million viewers, and the OSU and SC games are NBC games this year, which should pull in huge viewership as well. This could set up to have the best ratings since 2012.

Seems like whoever signs the latest deal is the "Richest" deal until the next school signs a new deal lol.

I'll be shocked if ND-Navy gets 8 million viewers.

Last year's Nebraska/NW game got 4.5. I don't think just about doubling that is too crazy. Army/Navy got almost 7 million as a stand alone game last year. I'd be curious what you think the number might be?

For sure. Like NFL QBs. Think I saw where there are now something like 8 NFL QBs making more than Mahomes.

6 million seems like the cap. Lots of casual viewers won't even be aware there's football that weekend.

If it turns out that Navy is leading late it might get there.

Since this has been the longest offseason I can remember for at least a year, I might tune in on 6 million TVs myself.
 
This reminds me of all the Catholic churches in Europe that sell billboard space on their cathedrals now. I saw an Audi billboard in Vienna and a different car ad in Prague. I can't even imagine all of the profit from this!
