The SEC chose to go all-in on ESPN, and you can expect ESPN will fully commit to pumping up the conference. The network became a valuable partner in the conference’s rollout of the SEC Network in 2014.

The SEC's deal with ESPN provides value beyond a figure on a ledger. But even as ESPN helps ensure the SEC retains a hold on the spotlight, the conference may grow envious of the Big Ten’s media rights war chest.
