So you're saying that consumer demand has zero influence on the marketplace.

No, I am saying politicians won't force change in the market. Change will happen slowly, as consumers cut the cord and cable providers push back at channel price increases. Like Dish Network and ESPN:

I think it will take more than 30 years for the model to fail though, and in that time the SEC Network will have made a ton a money. I think by the time the expansion emphasis changes from markets to program quality by then we will have 8 playoff spots with guaranteed seats for the Power 5 conferences so no one will move anywhere.

A FSU or Clemson in the SEC is simply a pipe dream.
