quote:
1) PAC 12 owns its own network. The payout is not determined by ESPN or FOX
There are six PAC 12 Networks, grouped by state. (Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah) The networks are broadcast and distributed by Fox, and then each region gets their own cut.
If a game is being broadcast on PAC 12 Arizona at the same time as a game on PAC 12 Oregon, for example, here in Washington we get the one for PAC 12 Oregon.
They would have to redo their entire contract with Fox in order to accommodate both you and Oklahoma, either making it one central network or adding PAC 12 Oklahoma and PAC 12 Texas...which Fox Sports SW would have a HUGE problem with. DirecTV already refuses to carry PAC 12 Networks because they don't want to pay for six different networks. What do you think they will do with 8?

You are missing the point.
The PAC 12 determines the price it sells its product for. ESPN pays the SEC a yearly fee.
So it is quite possible if UT and OU joined the PAC 12 the PAC 12 could sell their PAC 12 network to the cable and satellite providers at a higher cost
Plus they can sell commercial space at a higher cost meaning more money for the PAC 12 network.
The biggest issue between UT and the PAC 12 remains the network. People think that once the LHN ends with ESPN UT will manipulate the ESPN into giving UT a bigger contract again by using the PAC 12 but this remains to be seen.
