Answer the question, you crybaby piece of SJW dog shite.

Do New Years Day Bowls, playoff appearances, and Sooners merchandise bring in real money compared to say Missouri?

Mizzou brings NOTHING to the conference.



I haven't read this entire thread...but I'll post this even if it has been posted.

Missouri brought 31 million cable subscribers. If I remember correct the SEC Network opened at $1.50 a subscriber in the SEC footprint. That means they were worth roughly $41 million to the SEC each year. I suspect UTk is worth considerably less than that...Auburn as well.

Butts in seats doesn't add to the conference coffers. Cable tv subscriptions, whether they watch the SEC Network or not, pays the subscriber fees inside the footprint. Don't you Okies know this by now?




ESPN and cable tv are collapsing. Don't you texans know this by now?

Forrest vs trees

Their loss will be the backbones gain.

Prices will not fall long term, just who gets paid will change. Who carries the bandwidth will make money now.

Subscriptions (tv sets) will fall immensely. ESPN is a part of basic cable packages. Your conference network subscriptions will revert back to it's geographical mean. The broadcast networks and other sports networks is who will swoop in and gain the most. It's not rocket science.

The companies who control your cell phone will be the big winners. Seems AT&T and Verizon will control this solace in the future.

The record is not good, but don't exaggerate.

From 1997-2016, Oklahoma State is 6-14 in Bedlam, which is their best 20-year stretch vs. Oklahoma since 1926-1945, where they went 6-5-9.

You went back to 1997, pre-Stoops era, so you could throw a couple of John Blake era losses on there to make it seem better than it really is. What a fricking CLOWN.

I don't want to expand, but you sound like a dumbass UT fan overthinking this. It doesn't matter the amount of TVs inOklahoma; what matters is the amount of TVs nationally tuned in to watch OU vs Bama/LSU/Aggy/Auburn/Florida/Georgia/etc...


For expansion, the SEC prioritized teams in states with large population as the cable fees are much greater for states that have an in-state SEC team.

The funny thing about the know it alls talking about TV markets is that I believe that line of thinking is about to be, if not already, outdated.

In 5-10-20 years we could very much see virtually total a la carte sports programming via streaming rather than the legacy cable TV market packages which drove the latest consolidations. In which case the national brand name of the teams, without respect to well-defined TV markets, becomes the sought after trait.

Obviously, the location has to make sense for the schools traveling for competition, but I think the shift away from cable TV packages helps Oklahoma's desirability.

Your buddy said "twice in 20 years". I went back 20 years. It's clear that meth, not math, is the focus in Oklahoma.

SlingTV already has a la carte live TV streaming. HULU announced today I believe. It's over for cable companies.

I didn't say "twice in 20 years" anything. You can't even keep straight who you're responding too.

UTk has special value because they give the entire SEC Network a purpose in the football offseason.

They bring nothing to the table financially plus have to split up revenue. Meaning loss of dollars from every school not to mention stealing your recruits. Why in this beautiful green earth would people want them to join?


I'd have to see some numbers to reach that conclusion. That said, I don't want them as it would be another quality team.

What's the end goal? Add FSU, CLemson, Oklahoma? Who the hell would be left?

OU fits better in the SEC than any other option. Most of the state has a southern culture and has southern accents. There's a pocket up in north OK that wants to be thought of as yankees, but most of them moved in from Iowa and the other corn eatin' states.

Pac 12 would put us in the pacific time zone, when most of the collard eatin' states including Oklahoma is in bed.

B1G is not southern and plus we don't like hockey.
