Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 12:39 AM ET

Read my posts above B1G & SEC want 4 auto bids each & they can get at large
Stech 02/22/24 01:23 PM ET

Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 12:31 PM ET
Read my post above ESPN & USA Today saying B1G & SEC want 4 Auto Bids each.
Stech 02/22/24 01:16 PM ET
FSU would’ve had a bye as top 4 ranked Conference Champion. Might want to

I did 14 because it's was discussed at the CFP meetings in Dallas yesterday
Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 10:59 AM ET
I missed that, do you have a link?**
Stech 02/22/24 11:09 AM ET
Pete Thamel tweeted about it yesterday and again today.
Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 11:17 AM ET
Thanks, 14 team and revenue sharing mentioned too, I’m guessing Hokie83 was

It isn't THAT much money per school, probably $200k to $600k
PadrosWindup 02/22/24 11:50 AM ET
Question, and i don't have the answer to it - could Lane sell out for a
Big12 guy 02/22/24 12:00 PM ET
Yep. Why wouldn't it?**
MrFantastic! 02/22/24 03:09 PM ET
Of course, i didn't really doubt it, but to some programs, that money
Big12 guy 02/22/24 03:44 PM ET
You really think the P2 are worried about the other Conferences? They want
Stech 02/22/24 11:15 AM ET
No - they are worried about the cash cow they just
Big12 guy 02/22/24 11:31 AM ET
However you said in the post before they are throwing nonP2 a bone, this is
Stech 02/22/24 12:03 PM ET
The bone is to get their vote - nothing more. **
Big12 guy 02/22/24 12:06 PM ET
Gotcha, thanks for clarifying.**
Stech 02/22/24 12:07 PM ET

That’s true, but why haven’t they chose to do that?**
Stech 02/22/24 08:04 PM ET
Did ND get their own......

They will go for growing the revenue pie over protecting the conference
Big12 guy 02/22/24 11:17 AM ET
I am not found of the CCGs to begin with. But I would love for a "FLEX"
Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 11:29 AM ET
Yeah, CCGs are now a relic of the past and no longer needed
HokieAl 02/22/24 11:43 AM ET
Damn that 2005 game! Would be VT 4, FSU 4.**
VT_NOVA 02/22/24 01:16 PM ET

Maroon Baboon 02/22/24 11:46 AM ET
That is a decent segue into a different conversation that the ACC
Big12 guy 02/22/24 11:39 AM ET
The B1G and SEC are so big now, I don't know why they even bother playing

Big12 guy 02/22/24 11:43 AM ET
