Agreed, but we likely won't pull P2 money anymore as Big10 and SEC grew...

Big10 got the 4 best brands from the PAC. SEC got the 2 best brands from the Big12. The Big10 will have weekly football games that include Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, USC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington... with Nebraska and Wisconsin right up there. DANG that is a tremendous lineup of inventory. The SEC will have weekly football games that include Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Auburn... with Arkansas, Mississippi and MSU right up there. The ACC will have weekly football games that include Clemson, Florida State, Miami... with maybe UNC, Va Tech right up there... and maybe a wildcard of ND. The Big10 and SEC have separated themselves with their deep inventory. The ACC can still be successful, and maybe the P2 talent gets overly distributed between all those... but the ACC and B12 will not be seeing nor deserve SEC/Big10 money anymore.

They could make the ACC a P3. I'm not sure of the financials.

They played an ACC schedule during Covid, viewership was not that great.

Not feeling it long term

Agreed - long term demographics do not favor B1G - it may take decades

The SEC didn't just get the top two brands from the B12, they

Not really

Texas and Oklahoma are arguably the top 5 brands in football.

An important distinction - "Brands" vs. performance on the field

P2 (read advertisers) aren't leaving the Atlanta to DC corridor untouched

Probably, but remember, the P2 is Fox and ESPN. They already have
Big12 guy 08/20/23 04:11 PM ET
Not with any teams that, as you said, some could probably compete in the P2
