I can't understand why CBS decided to give the BIG10 all of that money and drop the SEC.


I keep saying it, maybe it will sink in

B1G = Lots of people live in the footprint and lots of living alumni
SEC = Best product but fewer people and fewer living alumni

Lots of folks buy a McDonalds hamburger because they are everywhere and the advertise it to death. Does not mean they make a good hamburger (at least not since the 1960's or 1970's).

I get your point but College Football Fans aren't just built from Alumni. Some of it is just College Football fans in general that love to see good football.

SEC obviously gives that year in and year out. The TV ratings with SEC competition trumps BIG10 over the last 10-15 years. Better competition means better ratings.

Population and growth of each region according to 2020 census.

I’m sure the footprints bleed together and the addition of the California schools may sway the population in favor of the Big Ten.

That said, population for each area:

Northeast
57,448,898
17.3%
Midwest
68,961,043
20.8%
West
78,650,958
23.7%
South
126,450,613
38.1%
