Do they realize that Sabag will be like 73 yrs old when the new deal starts? If/When Baga drops as the conference buoy that at worst makes it a top heavy league then we'll see how well this money was spent.

Tad they don't remember the Mike Dubose or David Shula years..

I give saban 3 years
 
Interesting that the only conference that doesnt require a "grant of rights" as a condition of membership is the SEC. No team would voluntarily want to leave that deal anyways because of the revenue sharing. Sucks to be in a ****ty conference AND not be able to win it even once in 2 decades.

I dunno. Baga being automatically assumed to be a top 3 team every year kinda sets up the whole conference narrative/propaganda. If Baga comes back down to Earth in a way that can't even be masked by the apologists in the media and a team like LSU doesn't pick up that mantle then I think they'll have national interest problems as a league faster than you can say Mike Shula or Dennis Franchione.

I don't know who even follows them nationally. Outside of the marquee matchups, I have zero interest and haven't watched a game other than the "Iron Bowl." I didn't even watch LSU vs Alabama and watched may qtr of Florida v Georgia. I can't imagine anyone interested in much else.

However, the same can be said for the ACC and much worse. I really fail to see why the SEC pulls so much money. If you look at the blue print of the SEC vs ACC, the ACC has a market double what the SEC has. You have a lot of big cities such as Boston, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, DC/Virginia, South Florida, Charlotte, etc. The population of the SEC footprint is smaller. Perhaps a greater percentage of their population watch SEC football.

There's your answer. Are there more options for quality entertainment in Boston and Atlanta or in Starkville and Tuscaloosa?

If Miami and FSU pulled their weight on the field, the ACC could have had a contract like this.

But alas. Miami is garbage and the ACC is the weakest league in college football

ESPN already owns the SEC network, which is why they pimp those teams so heavily, and ultimately why those teams get perpetually overrated in the polls. It's going to be even more insufferable when the mouse gets all the games and the conference gets even more dollars.

SEC pulls in the most because it’s the best product.

Nobody is interested in watching Boston College vs Pitt, because those teams suck. Doesn’t much matter how big their home markets are. Americans won’t watch an inferior product.

I won’t watch ACC football, but I’ll watch LSU or Alabama play just because the quality of play is higher.
 
Part of the reason SEC teams are pumped up in the polls. People need to see #8 Florida play #19 Texas A n M on saturday. Even tho they arent that good. The numbers by their names tell the sheep they are good..... College football is dying a slow death. Confrences need to be abolished, maybe that will help.
 
So what does this mean for where the games will be shown?

The Disney App? The Disney Channels?

Conferences needs to be abolished? That's crazy talk. Conferences are tradition, decades of history that's a huge part of the what makes college sports the best fan experience there is. College football isn't dying, as evidenced by a new record deal. The only thing that is changing, can attendance is dropping some, but that's just people staying home and tuning in.

My man, the reason the ACC doesn’t pull in money or viewership like the SEC is because we have ****** football other than Clempson. That’s the plain sad truth. Most of those big market ACC cities don’t give a flying f8ck about their teams, and I can’t blame them: GT, Boston College, Pittsburgh, Cuse, Virginia, VaTech, and the ****storm teams in N Carolina. Who could give a **** about these teams? This shouldn’t be surprising to anyone.

Most “fans” in PAC12 country care more about protesting anything they get stuck up theirs butts that day and generally don’t care about sports. There are fans, but the numbers pale in comparison to those in the Big10, SEC and even the Big12. It just means less out West.

The Big 10 is trash? Another know nothing SFL college football ******. Let me guess, “ they are trash bro, it’s cold there bro with nothing to do bro.”

Not only do they have a quality depth in the Big 10, they also bring in the crowds to watch their games.

Let me also guess, you think depth only applies to teams like Clemson or Bama; only teams with a legit shot at winning the national championship.
