re: The new TV deal for the SEC

Their viewership may be higher than SEC viewership but not that much higher to warrant contracts that are not comparable at all.

SEC has content
B1G has eyeballs

The modern game is about $$$$ so eyeballs are worth more than content

NFL really is national but CFB is still regional. Adding U$C and UCLA was all about money over content. We had all this over a century ago (Super Conferences and paying players) till the US government stepped in. Went back to not paying players and smaller regional groups.
