[QUOTE="Techster, post: 955249, member: 360"] I pointed this out: ESPN will pay over $31+ Million to former PAC12 schools Arizona, ASU, Utah, Colorado in the Big 12. FOX will reportedly pay Washington and Oregon up to $40+ million in the B1G. ESPN and Fox wouldn't pay the PAC12 $30 million for each team to keep the PAC12 together, BUT they'll pay more for each those teams in another conference? Let's think about the implications of that. Consolidation of conferences, and investing MORE in conferences with strategic value. PAC12 no longer had strategic value for FOX/ESPN/NBC/CBS/etc. At some point, networks realized conferences were just content, and the bigger conference across multiple time zones meant they could get the same content and NOT have to spread a lot of money across different conferences. Cue the B1G, SEC (kinda), and BIG12 who are all in at least 3 time zones. This does not bode well for the Group of 5 conferences, and probably the ACC once the GOR expires. [/QUOTE]
