[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 885188, member: 1776"] The NBC thing makes alot of sense. There has been talk of ND wanting a bigger deal from NBC and NBC being up for that if it could find other football games to put around it. If they can grab a few B10 games each week where they have 1-2 games on Saturday around the ND game and then a B10 game in Sunday before the Sunday night NFL game that would be a heck of a weekend sports lineup for NBC. If it comes to pass I think it would hurt the B12 as they are the only other conference that could potentially be put around the ND game. If that comes off the table it likely reduces the bargaining power of the B12. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/conference-realignment-big-ten-interest-in-additional-pac-12-teams-has-cooled-big-12-positioned-well/[/URL] The national exposure B10 would get from having big games on Saturday and Sunday nights on a broadcast network would be big for them. ACC is certainly the best set up of the 3 other conferences. It has a network deal with ESPN and is the only conference ESPN controls 100% of the broadcast rights, so ESPN has a strong reason to keep the ACC around - especially if they get no piece of the B10 contract. ACC should start seeing money from the Comcast deal this year - rumors have been that could add $5-6MM/yr per school -I will be very interested to see what the actual numbers end up being. ACC certainly isn't going to get close to B10 or SEC money, but it should easily set up as the best of the rest. The legal talk around expanding beyond 16 teams is sort of interesting. Not surprised it doesn't seem like B10 is interested in adding more P12 teams now. Either they were going to have to overpay for them or the schools were going to have to take a smaller share than the schools already there which leads to problems holding everyone together. I still think the next big inflection point is whatever is agreed to for CFP. That will determine what B10 and SEC do next. Whether they try to expand more or just hold where they are. [/QUOTE]
