Do they teach math at Texas A&M? Because if you do the math you'll realize that the Big Ten pretty much has the best TV deal thing sewn up for a long time starting in 2017. It's all about the number of subscribers in the geographic region and the SEC has no chance to catch the Big Ten in that regard. The Big Ten has a MUCH larger population base.

Ultimately the B1G's business plan is to force cable subscribers to pay more for a crappy on field product. I just don't see how that's a good plan for the future. That's even assuming one buys the B1G's constant puffery about its projections and believes that the SEC isn't going to negotiate its payout upwards to reflect that market.
The SEC's plan is based on giving people something they want to see. The B1G's plan is based on getting cable providers to sneak charges into cable packages for something most of the viewers aren't going to care to watch. I like our model better.

This is what happens when yankees think we're a bunch of backward, dumbass, hillbilly, racists with an average of a 2nd grade education. You yankees should generally shut the frick up.
