B1G just spanked the SEC

[calidawg]

with their new TV Deal.

meanwhile we are tied at the hip with a depreciating asset (ESPN) that is a bad culture fit. ESPN is also woefully behind Fox and CBS in football production quality. B1G is getting FOX, CBS, and NBC premier slots. Huge win for them. Not a great day for SEC.

welcome to two weeks ago. The SEC gets ESPN, ABC and likely some streaming services. ESPN does college football best, by far (other than Beth Mowins:().

I don't think the SEC has done their new deal yet, have they? The one that will include Texas and OU?

ESPN is behind Fox on Camera's and their quality of TV production for games. Fox uses similar setups from NFL games, with cameras 360, and just a better overall product than ESPN. It is not even close. Their broadcasters are more polished(similar to NFL) and less of guys talking about themselves throughout the game as ESPN has.

I would trade for our games on Fox 11:30 or night time slot all day long

Gus Johnson is more polished??? Wtf are you smoking and where can I get some? Dude sounds like a hype man, not an announcer. The halftime break shows with lienart and the old Pitt coach sound lost as hell the majority of the time as well. I?d call it a wash between fox and ESPN honestly

Agree. The big noon production from studio to game is great

Hell I wish we would go back to TBS/ At least we could watch the game and have the announcers talk about the game being played and not what BAMA or ND was doing. Oh yeah they always had great shots of the cheerleaders.

I hate the sec is losing cbs. It was nice to be able to watch the sec at the tailgate with the rabbit ears. Not to mention all the households that don't have espn.

[CaptainObvious]

Jefferson Pilot SEC Game of the Week!! Those were the days when the NBC affiliate in Tupelo or Memphis, the CBS affiliate in Columbus or Jackson and the ABC affiliate in Greenville would get the feed because all the games were Regional telecast! Good times.

If it wasn't for SEC on ESPN I would've ditched ESPN years ago/

[Todd4State]

On the plus side no more Gary Danielson hopefully.

Everything has been downhill since we were on Jefferson Pilot!****** Long as the SEC contract is the highest paid and we get our slice of the pie I am happy>

THIS!! She would probably do the least amount of damage as an ordinary housewife. In any event, that's what she needs to go back to. She's just horrible with a microphone in front of her.

So from reliable sources in college athletics, Bounds believes the SEC tv contract will be close to 900millon per year with Texas and Oklahoma. That would be about a $30+ million increase in revenue for each school over what it is earned now.

[Apoplectic]

Brilliant move by SEC. The lesser product of the big10 has set the floor.
