ESPN only wants the late night games on the East.

Most of ESPN/ABC the slots are spoken for when they add the Big 12 to the ACC, SEC, American, and MAC. Fox wanted USC and UCLA. They aren't pursuing the rest. Amazon is insisting on first pick each week of games. The PAC 12 is insisting that best game be on Network TV. So Amazon may back off.

Bob Thompson former CEO of Fox is saying the same thing. If it's over, get

The interesting is who blinks first

What makes you think that the B1G cares about harming the PAC?….
CrystalCoveHokie • 05/12/23 10:41 AM ET
Appearance and legal challenges
Mercury • 05/12/23 04:26 PM ET
The B1G already has the Pac-12 scalp on their mantle. They killed it.
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 11:07 AM ET
Per McMurphy, he is heavy speculating that UW and Oregon already accepted
tcc_dc • 05/11/23 03:46 PM ET
B1G already took one tire off the race car..the Pac 12...
Old Line Hokie • 05/13/23 11:31 PM ET
I wonder if they are getting ready to throw us all a curve ball
HokieAl • 05/12/23 11:54 AM ET
If the PAC can't recover as the Pac10, hasn't the B10 already killed them?
Truthahn • 05/12/23 11:41 AM ET
Who is "they"? The B1G or UO/UW?**
Maroon Baboon • 05/11/23 04:48 PM ET
BIG...even though we all know**
tcc_dc • 05/11/23 07:21 PM ET
They already ruined it.**

B1G wants the Big 12 to be Conference killer for their Academic Reputation
Stech • 05/11/23 08:55 PM ET
Too late.**
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 11:09 AM ET
I agree it’s too late, but higher ups in the B1G would like to see another
Stech • 05/12/23 01:05 PM ET
Interesting take. I wish the ACC was in the bidding for some of these PAC
Maroon Baboon • 05/11/23 11:12 PM ET
Sometimes the best move, is to do nothing at all.**
BAMRising • 05/12/23 10:50 PM ET
What schools that are left would move the needle?**
VaTechHokiesACC • 05/12/23 04:30 AM ET
Not sure. But the more that are taken, the better. I'll mention a few here.
Maroon Baboon • 05/12/23 02:51 PM ET
...and pay for the 3000 miles of travel?**
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 08:39 AM ET
Of the P2+2, the ACC is the furthest away from the Pac-10.
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 11:08 AM ET
I'd like to see the ACC take the PAC into our TV contract.
Truthahn • 05/12/23 11:56 AM ET
That also means whatever we receive from the ACCN will be spread across...
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 12:59 PM ET
Only if we get a second TV channel
EDGEMAN • 05/12/23 12:57 PM ET
Hard to make a deal when you have multiple conference waiting to slice...

Thanks for link.......

As a Big12 guy, I continue to not see what the Big12 gains
Big12 guy • 05/11/23 09:07 PM ET
I understand your skepticism, but that was an SI article, so why say you
Stech • 05/10/23 08:34 PM ET
I did not say......
2hhoop3 • 05/10/23 08:37 PM ET
Definitely misunderstood, I reread and now understand what you are saying.
Stech • 05/10/23 08:47 PM ET
I think the article is.......
2hhoop3 • 05/10/23 09:52 PM ET
Larry Scott pretty much is responsible for most if not all
RJHokie • 05/10/23 10:01 PM ET
Larry Scott is a crook........
2hhoop3 • 05/10/23 10:27 PM ET
Yep, and he “got away with” a 💩 load of money at the expense
RJHokie • 05/11/23 05:03 PM ET
Just wondering where the conference and the remaining teams end up, after
