The agreement would continue games on CBS and Fox, and would add coverage on NBC, probably on Saturday nights for football. It'll be worth about $1,000,000,000 (that's a billion, with a "b") a year. ESPN/ABC will still have exclusive coverage of SEC events, plus games from most of the other conferences. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/34374231... . We will get by.

Maybe we could rent out Huntington Bank Park for home weekends for baseball. The Convo is primed to shine.

Power 5. It’s now clearly the Power 2. A whole bunch of conferences just formally joined the MAC in the Insignificant Conference Association.

Do they jump to the Big 10 or SEC if they'll take them? If the ACC is a sinking ship, they need to find another boat relatively quickly. Who are the best teams being left out from these power 2 now? I see Clemson, Oregon, Florida State, Miami, and maybe Virginia Tech and Arizona as the only other schools that are somewhat appealing to other conferences. Rutgers better be crossing their fingers that the Big 10 doesn't make any cuts.

Rutgers better be crossing their fingers that the Big 10 doesn't make any cuts. Nobody in the ACC is going anywhere unless all parties involved are in agreement that they're willing to pay a hefty fee to do so. They gave up their Grant of Rights when they signed their deal with ESPN, and it doesn't expire until 2035 I believe. Oregon and Washington, as sad as it may be, probably don't move the needle enough to warrant a jump to the B1G. So they're kinda stuck in limbo. The University of California Board of Regents is doing everything in their power to stop UCLA from going, in which case the next target for the B1G would most likely be Stanford. They fit the academic mold and are just another piece to solving the Notre Dame puzzle. If that were to happen they'd have Notre Dame's two biggest West Coast rivals plus their television provider. Notre Dame doesn't need the $70 million that B1G schools are getting, but it would be hard to turn down. It all hinges on Notre Dame at this point. The Arizona schools and the combo of Utah/Colorado fit perfectly into the Big XII's hopes and dreams.

Granted, a lot of the "elsewhere" games would show up on B10 Net anyway, either its main channel or its alternate. But a game like WVA-Penn St or Louisiana-Minn could have made it a main ESPN channel or ABC. (The Ohio-Penn St game this season is on ABC.) Several could also have shown up on ESPN+, so ESPN/ABC could lose a big chunk of revenue. And even though they'll pick up SEC games, they're not big draws north of the Ohio River and west of the Mississippi. What's clear is that some folks outside the B10's footprint might have to buy B10 Net for a game or two instead of maybe having their favorite team show up on ESPN+. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

I'm not giving the big 14 any of my money. I almost have to question whether I even want to watch on TV (expected outcome notwithstanding).

They're putting some MWC on at noon (Oct 1 -- Navy at AFA) but if some MAC teams were to make some noise in OOC play, it might happen. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.
