B1G did a lot better than the SEC in the recent expansion

Ducks and UW…plus UCLA and USC > Okla and Texas I think the SEC couldn’t get past geography changes which the B1G didn’t care about ….

Disagree, matchups matter. BIG has too many who cares game every week**

But kicking and screaming for oregon and wash

they both killed it, literally and figuratively

The SEC picked up two in or adjacent to their footprint, where...

If you are a major advertiser which footprint would you prefer?**

yeah, the SEC picked up great brands, but no markets.**

Cable hookups are out, eyeballs are in, more eyeballs with SEC matchups, so
Stech • 12/02/23 05:05 PM ET
Cable subs still matter for the B1G Network and SEC Network.
tarheelblue • 12/02/23 05:31 PM ET
That’s true they matter, and the trend is definitely going back to ratings.**
Stech • 12/03/23 12:07 AM ET
Depends on the matchup. **
reestuart • 12/02/23 05:18 PM ET
True, and the expanded SEC IMHO will have more than the expanded B1G based
Stech • 12/03/23 12:11 AM ET
Agreed, but IMHO the SEC matchups are way better. Even the Egg Bowl is fun
Stech • 12/02/23 05:21 PM ET
But their brand isn't based on buying markets all over the country. **
EDGEMAN • 12/02/23 03:12 PM ET
True**
reestuart • 12/02/23 03:28 PM ET
I think the B1G is trash for letting UW and UO twist in the wind
Maroon Baboon • 12/02/23 01:24 AM ET
why? They had to make sure it made sense. **
reestuart • 12/02/23 01:45 PM ET
ITs not that. its business
Mercury • 12/02/23 08:17 AM ET
They never should been in that position
HokiesACC2004 • 12/02/23 03:53 AM ET
Give me Texas vs Florida or Oklahoma vs Alabama type games, for matchups.
