Add USC and PSU.

Those four playing each other every year, and adding in a few Notre Dame games that would surely happen. Why do they need a conference at all? The ACC would give them all the Notre Dame deal, IMO. Why not?

Well - streamers are starting to buy just a few college games

What would streamers pay for a 16 team super league?
mancunian 05/01/26 09:12 AM ET
I think it will be more likely the blue bloods

I wonder what a streamer would pay for Ohio State's football home games?
SMU Pony 05/01/26 08:40 AM ET
Imagine this scenario with Ohio State and Michigan...
SMU Pony 05/01/26 09:05 AM ET
USC already tried to do similar, and the Big Ten shot it down.

Add USC and PSU.

The LHN is not an apples to apples comparison
SMU Pony 05/01/26 07:11 PM ET
The Texas network was more about 3rd tier worth. Not football.**

Like it or not, the blue bloods are driving the bus. **
Big12 guy 05/01/26 08:47 AM ET
I love this.
HouClone 04/30/26 08:54 PM ET
The ESPN payout to the ACC will be the same regardless, no?
SMU Pony 04/30/26 08:57 PM ET
The article says "everyone worked together" to get this done.
Truthahn 05/01/26 12:15 PM ET
Do you think VT should get some of that money? **
Big12 guy 05/01/26 12:56 PM ET
For bball, espn still wins

VT is nowhere close to being in a P1. See my thread a few below this**

You are only looking back, sure last 15 not good, but that’s irrelevant to
Stech 04/30/26 08:41 PM ET
Looking back is actual results. Nobody is going to invite VT for potential
HokieAl 04/30/26 09:15 PM ET
Indiana changed it in 2 years, and I don’t think the P1 is a year away like
Stech 05/01/26 02:48 AM ET
No I wasn’t saying P1 in a year
HokieAl 05/01/26 08:46 AM ET
I agree with that, and I agree we have to play our way back into it, and I

For AD, I think my lean is an ESPN person
HokieAl 05/01/26 01:52 PM ET
that the same attitude that keeps states behind
1947Sunbowl 04/30/26 11:21 PM ET
IMO this is a trail balloon. The third tier rights are greatly undervalued
hokieninsurance 04/30/26 02:19 PM ET
I don't think it's a trial balloon..if it is, it's a bad one
SMU Pony 04/30/26 07:38 PM ET
I disagree, as a cord cutter (havent have regular cable in 10 years)

If they did, they would let CW or Amazon
Big12 guy 04/30/26 05:01 PM ET
Yes, they could do that until the current GOR expires. However, is that in
VTHokie2000 04/30/26 05:10 PM ET
I guess they could do that, but we know now
Big12 guy 04/30/26 05:44 PM ET
The only way Amazon and the CW could do that is if ESPN gives them access
