Neither team can afford to give up ALL of their TV money until 2036. Clemson and FSU aren't going anywhere (and neither is any other ACC team...)


Doesn't ESPN already have the ACC locked in with their GOR? Doesn't make sense for them to move to the SEC where ESPN would have to give them a better deal..

It only makes sense if ESPN does some math and says that the potential matchups will bring vastly larger viewership numbers, more than anything in the ACC could offer and more than a comparable SEC matchup with a weaker SEC team might otherwise bring. Otherwise yes, they've already got that team's content at their disposal. Better to pay less for it.
