Nothing lasts forever.
I don't know who will be the next power conference but I don't see it happening in the next ten years

Wow, IDK. TV execs have never made a stupid decision on where to put their money or who to overpay???

But here is the interesting part. Despite SEC dominance on the field for 2 decades now, the B10 has gotten a better tv rights deal every time throughout those 20 years.
They flip over which one has the better money deal, however the SEC averages 3 NC every decade since the 1950's (so the SEC has been dominate for longer than 2 decades). The only decade the SEC did not win 3 NC during a decade was in the 1980's.
The Big Ten has won 3 NC since 1970. While they have gotten a good deal for now, remember that the SEC will be renegotiating because it added new members.
The SEC is so far ahead of the Big Ten in athletics they need a telescope to see us.

The B1G tried to shut down football during the Covid year. Remember who controls those universities and who they answer to.
The sleeping part is accurate and will stay that way. You can judge the conference by the bottom 6-8 teams. Are the bottom 6-8 SEC teams more committed to football than the bottom 6-8 B1G teams?

I'd say the SEC - with its 7 (when OU/TX join) schools that have won 11 BCS and 5 CFP titles since 1998 compared to the 1 big1t1en founding member that's won that conference's lone BCS and lone CFP title - stands a chance going forward regardless of TV/broadcast contracts.

The north will always be more prosperous than the south. It has been this way since colonial times. The souths soldiers were no match for the industrial north in the civil war nor will they be any match in the B1G/SEC war.

That is what is so absurd though. We should be getting a far better tv deal, especially not an inferior one.

Bingo. OSU and Michigan have like four million students. A lot of them have televisions

Nope. Another area where we got owned in negotiating tv rights. All we are getting is a pro rata addition. In other words Disney will pay the SEC the same amount to add Texas as it is currently paying us for Vanderbilt.
We literally added the most valuable tv rights university in the nation, plus Oklahoma, and all we get is a pro rata bonus to break even. Sankey got owned in this round just like how Slive got dominated by the joke of a CBS contract we are currently locked into.

The reason the B1G gets the better tv deal is that Warren is playing chess while Sankey is playing checkers.
You laugh when I brag on our commish but he knows what he is doing.

If by the north you mean NY-CT-Boston, sure.
Ohio is a rustbelt wasteland that people from the Northeast scoff at.

Bigger TV markets in B10 territory. Especially adding LA now along with Chicago.

SEC has content
B1G has population
More people means more people to pay for a crappy product
