It's becoming more Southeast Regionalized as this says.

The Big Ten will make itself national this round to try to combat that, but football is becoming SEC. They will survive on it for as long as it lasts. The ACC will need to adjust to this, but as we've seen in some of the threads, we also can thrive with basketball. Position ourselves to keep in that position with not diminishing football. I don't think there is any doubt that football is on the decline. It is massive now, but in 2036 will it be? We'll see.

With all due respect, I was involved when NASCR soared, it wasn’t going

A big reason I don't watch anymore is the start times.

That, and adding too many "cute" items
