Need to schedule us some games on CBS so we can hear that theme song before our games again. Best one in all of sports imo (behind the old ESPN college football theme of course).I think this is very smart. With so many streaming platforms you need to be first to do this and capitalize on the big money.
I’d love to see us create a new OOC game in football soon on prime. But I’m also not sure how espn and its contract with the ACC allows for this.
If Duke did it, then there must be a way. They’re under the same contract, no?I think this is very smart. With so many streaming platforms you need to be first to do this and capitalize on the big money.

streaming partners will be part of the next media deals. These deals are them getting a foot in the door. Netflix and Amazon in particular will be huge players in College sports moving forward

This is about to be a thing. A big thing. In more than one sport.

Will this start to be a trend? Will school start to shop out of conference matchups? it could actually help to preserve big time college football matchups.

Kinda shoots a hole in those proclamations that Duke's basketball pedigree wouldn't be enough to get the Devils in the SEC or B1G.

And both Conferences may already have built in relationships with each streamer and have let their media partners know this is the plan so get with the program or lose out. The added inventory with a 24 team CFP will also add to this. Especially with the sport looking to diversify partners to extract most value similar to NFL model instead of allowing espn to monopolize. 2030 and lead up to it will have a ton of horse trading.For sure.
Just the spectre of that happening provides an incredible amount of leverage for the B1G and SEC.
ESPN and FOX don't want to do anything that causes a rift with (by far) the most valuable properties outside the NFL in American sports
