    Attached is another Josh Pate presentation. I believe it to be on point and the power brokers have been meeting. By power brokers I mean the SEC and BIG with the television networks. I declared, to fellow elitedoggers that the Power2 is coming and it will be two conferences. They are the Disney/ESPN formerly known as the SEC but just called the SEC as a proxy and the FOX, NBC, and CBS conference formerly known as the BIG10 but identified as the BIG as a proxy. They will consist as two 20 team groups i.e. the NFC and AFC lite. Vanderbilt and Rutgers will be placed somewhere outside the P2 to guarantee more premiere games to support a return on investment. This will be a football only business transaction.

    I have declared this being Platonic in my observations. This does not mean that I like it. When the P2 establishes itself, it will only play games within the P2. The P2 will have its play off structure within. The rest of college football will be relegated to a version of the NIT.

    Exactly, this is dead on. It sucks but this is where we are.

    I think it will probably be more like 50-60 teams. Although CFB is a big time sport, it will remain regional to some extent. All BIG/SEC teams will be in. UNC/FSU/ND/Miami/Clempson (and maybe a few more ACC teams), plus a few out of the Big 12 will be included. Both Arizona schools will likely be included.

    TV will want to maximize the number of eyes possible, keeping fans of second tiers engaged will also bring those viewers to the 5-10 big time programs.

    I personally believe that the P2 will have an NFL mindset on expansion and that is the best for P2 profits. A case in point, is NFL relocation instead of expansion. The NFL owners do not want to share the 1/32nd share of television revenue with new arrivals. I believe that the London NFL franchise would be ongoing from Jacksonville if it was not for the covid delay BTW. London is a huge profit boost over Jacksonville for the NFL owners 1/32nd model. The BIG P2 players will be thinking of 1/40th shares and not 1/60th shares of television revenue. That is why I believe that the 40-team benchmark is in play.

    Good points. However, TV will drive this train and each conference (the SEC and BIG) will continue to do revenue sharing how they see fit. The BIG/SEC are not going away, they will not fold into a new organization, they may elect a CFB Commissioner, but they will retain their current influence and control. If NC State is included, for example, that doesn't mean they will get the same revenue sharing as Bama. Media rights will likely still be negotiated by the conference. Obviously ND will still negotiate their own deal, I don't see them getting into a conference for football.

    Some folks think the SEC/BIG will be "part of" the next segment of CFB. That is not the case, the SEC/BIG will "be" the next segment of the CFB.
