I think they're underestimating the Texas footprint.

The more time goes by with A&M being the top team in Texas, the more it will gain t-shirt fans (which equals viewers) in the state.

It's still early, but it seems like A&M is on a path to dethrone Texas as the most popular college team, and that equals $$$$$$$$$$$$$.

They just don't look at the timeline.

In late 2008 ESPN signed a 15 year deal with the SEC that had NO NETWORK:

Now here we are in 2014 and the SEC has a network. What changed between now and then?

What changed was the SEC footprint grew by 50%.

Simply put, even with all their success in the field, without us the SEC would NOT be having success in the boardroom.

Heck given the low value of the CBS Tier 1 contract and that 2008 ESPN contract, it stands to reason that without us the ENTIRE SEC would make significantly less than the Big 10 this next decade.

You are welcome everyone.
