OREGON to the B1G

I don't pay for television. Thanks for heads up.
I stream so I get every relevant sports channel for the same low price + other channels.

I’m still kind of shocked that the B10 skimmed the best teams off the top of the pc12 and left the rest to die.
The Big XII is the only other conference that had a slight chance….until they took Colorado back.

I'm not. I love the forward looking aggression.

They were there for the taking and they'd do it to the ACC if it weren't for that rascally GOR.
 
Yes. And money isn't the problem for Oregon. We can cover a 5-6 year money gap. The bigger issue was exposure and getting into one of the P2 leagues.
They really don’t need any more exposure. They already get exposed every time they play a good team.
 
Look at it this way - Wazzu or Oregon State have a shot to win a conference

Remind me the last time the PAC won a NY6 Bowl or a CFP game
 
Has anyone noticed that Notre Dame now has 3 rivals in one conference and the ACC is probably imploding within the next few years?
 
Until the tv deal is up for renewal which runs through the 2029 season. They join in 2024, so 6 years? Not bad really and about what Nebraska waited. And by then they’ll be making $35 mil, probably $10 million more than the pac12 Apple deal
They will be spending $10 million more a year in travel, according to Washington sources.

I have a hard time believing 'ESPN' who reported the $30 million with $1 million escalator per year.
ESPN doesn't like this deal because it doesn't benefit them one iota. It's competition so I'd expect them to try to quash any excitement about it.

This isn't 2011 media rights monies and the projections I've seen start in the $35-$40 million range first year.

These were Nebraska's numbers before getting full distribution.

Nebraska
2011: $14 million
2012: $15.4 million (9.5% increase)
2013: $16.9 million (9.2% increase)
2014: $18.7 million (10.1% increase)
2015: $22 million (16.2% increase)
2016: $26 million (16.6% increase)
2017: $51 million (Full distribution)

Now do those % increases at $35-$40 million.

At first year $35 million with a 9.5% increase to year 2, that goes to $38.3 million.
A $3.3 million bump
They were reporting it on the radio here. They are saying they will get 50% of the full cut in year 1 and have a $1 million dollar escalators each year after. They said B1G teams will get between 60-65 million a year. So they are reporting $30 million with a max of 32.5 million.

Granted these aren't some CFB insiders, this is just the sports talk radio show.

I'd bet they don't get the same deal as Nebraska with the big escalators, because the B1G doesn't need to do that. The B1G holds all the cards and Washington and Oregon are just thankful for the invite. They can't demand anything. The B1G really wanted Nebraska, so I can see giving them bigger escalators and a faster path to full distribution rights.

B1G was always doing the expansion, with or without ND, but it is becoming more clear than ever, ND better pick a conference quick, as these super conferences will have all their rivals in them and those teams won't need the prime time OOC games, as they will have a schedule full of them in conference.

NBC presumably spent money to add UO/UW. That's less money that can go to ND.
