That’s a pretty interesting raking from SI but I don’t think academics and especially Olympic sports carry much weight when it comes to conference realignment. They gloss over local media markets by citing Rutgers/NYC, but that’s an outlier, IMO. Because Rutgers. I guarantee you that Detroit, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Chicago, etc. deliver rock solid ratings for Big Ten football games, especially for the home team(s).
However, it does stand to reason that 13 of the 14 “most valuable” programs are in the Big Ten & SEC with the only outlier being ND.Last edited by Mike; July 15, 2022, 02:06 PM.

I think Columbus and Birmingham are two the largest CFB markets for TV. I'm not sure if where they rate in terms of pure quantity, but my guess is ahead of NYC. They are easily 1-2 (in some order) for Ratings.
So, yeah, the NY market get the fuck out.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

From that article:The Big Ten is expected to be the first college conference to eclipse $1 billion per year in rights fees once all is said and done.

Not always. I believe they go back and forth with the SEC each time the conferences bid out their rights packages.
But man, no more ESPN?! AND we get CBS and the absolute best sports broadcast intro music known to mankind?! It’s like Christmas in August. CAN’T. WAIT.
