So A&M funded its own competition?

They're grateful ... even if they won't admit it.

Thanks for inadvertently pumping so much money into the already fat UGA wallet that we started hiring staff and improving facilities to the point that we are quite likely on our way to wrecking some shite

I genuinely think that will happen (re: UGA).

Clay Travis.
His supposition that without TAMU and the LHN the SECN wouldn't be profitable or exist is based on his opinion. The LHN was hardly the blueprint or only example of either a team network or a conference network.
TAMU certainly helped expand the launch footprint as did Mizzou but the idea of an SEC Network had been around for years and the conference watched several others succeed and fail while waiting for our own tv contracts to expire. However, Clay is either unaware or doesn't acknowledge several simple facts. The network is successful because of the product which would have been there with or without expansion and goes beyond football (women's basketball, men's basketball, softball, and baseball among others are critical to the network's success and all things viewers want to see as well as successful conference sports). That said, the notion that viewers and cable companies wouldn't pay or contract to see more SEC games given conference primacy in football is absurd, especially given that the South watches more college football than anyone (we even watch the B1G more than B1G country does because we love college football).
IOW, thanks for the extra footprint in terms of help guaranteeing a good launch but never rest any argument or brag because Clay Travis said so.

So... the Aggies and the SEC are making money hand over fist and flipping the bird to that loathsome school in Austin?
OK. I can live with that.

The SEC had good product and the SEC Network may have launched anyway. But Slive added +50% population to the SEC footprint by adding two schools, TAMU and Mizzou.
That's serious money in the bank for the conference. The SEC Network wouldn't be nearly the success it is without TAMU and Mizzou.

Hey, that's why the SEC wanted y'all.

Somehow we have to integrate Tceh and Baylol into this rivalry informational diss.
Anyone have any ideas for Aggy?

So by adding A&M (8,000,000 x $16.80= 134,400,000) and Missouri (2,000,000 x $16.80= 33,600,000), the SEC Network makes an additional $168,000,000 per year.
Top money makers for the SEC Network:
Texas A&M: $134,400,000
Florida: $109,200,000
Georgia: $56,000,000
Missouri: $33,600,000
South Carolina: $27,048,000
LSU: $26,040,000
:Big 6:
Kentucky: $24,712,800
Tennessee: $18,202,800 (divided in half with Vanderbilt)
Vanderbilt: $18,202,800 (divided in half with Tennessee)
Arkansas: $16,632,000
Alabama: $13,582,800 (divided in half with Auburn)
Auburn: $13,582,800 (divided in half with Alabama)
Ole Miss: $8,374,800 (divided in half with State)
State: $8,374,800 (divided in half with Ole Miss)
East: $286,966,400
West: $220,987,200 (A&M owns 61% of that
)
Total: $507,953,600
East riiiiiiiiiich. West poooooooor.

Most know that.
Not sure why it bothers some to admit it.
It's a very symbiotic relationship.
