The liberalization of gambling has fed the sports addiction.
Maroon Baboon • 03/03/26 11:35 AM ET
Yeah the constant discussion of lines/prop bets is kinda gross.

Don’t want it, Saban’s *NFL P1 w/ 32 teams more & more possible every day.

Any change that denies access to worthy programs won't end well.

Take a moment to consider the entire universe of live sports media.

Overpay NFL or just pay to it hurts, it still effects NCAA sports

I think the benefits of NFL rights are very easily quantified for the

I won't try to dispute that, Vip. But there comes a point that the media

I don't know about the SEC and the B10 but I will say this.
RandomAsianGuy • 03/01/26 07:39 PM ET
The total amount is irrelevant, it's amount in comparison to the SEC/ B10
wwhokie1 • 03/03/26 08:18 AM ET
If they won't pay big bucks for the B12, they sure won't for the ACC.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/02/26 11:25 AM ET
Ignore this.
RandomAsianGuy • 03/02/26 06:12 PM ET
The ACC isn't much better in terms of value.
RandomAsianGuy • 03/02/26 12:31 PM ET
The B12's contract is also with FOX and CBS. ESPN doesn't "own" the B12-
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/02/26 05:09 PM ET
You're not wrong. The future of the ACC and the Big 12 largely depends on

Actions speak louder than words, ACC 2036 media extension & ACCN significan
Stech • 03/02/26 04:30 PM ET
Yup. I like the ACC's chance.

Are talking about the 2025 - 2026 numbers? Because
Big12 guy • 03/02/26 06:22 PM ET
You will have to wait for a year for that. Won't see much difference tho.**

Well, that will be the one to compare if you are going to

Unequal conference distributions historically have led to the demise
RJHokie • 03/02/26 08:02 PM ET
Unequal distribution is a symptom not a cause. **

If it works in the ACC, it may be a path the P2 takes. If
Big12 guy • 03/02/26 08:09 PM ET
What is your definition of "works" or "success" as it relates to the ACC?
VTHokie2000 • 03/03/26 01:10 PM ET
If it keeps the conference together
Big12 guy • 03/03/26 02:21 PM ET
It is very possible the conference could lose several schools and still

Wrong reply...but we will see.

No doubt we see things differently. The "right" answer is subjective. **
