perhaps NBC will open the purse a bit wider
I mean, they'd have to almost quadruple their current offering.  I guess it could happen?

They give them terrible announcers that they hate, and stick some of their games on their Peacock steaming site. 

I don't think they are very committed to the Golden Dome.

The reason why ND is always going to be underpaid as an Indy is because it's less inventory.  With tOSU or any B1G school, a network is usually going to get 11/12 games to air, the home non-cons then ALL the conference games (whether home or away).

With ND, the network is only going to get 6/7 games because they aren't getting any of the way games (in NBC's case).

They'd be a lot more valuable in a conference where the carrier partner knew they'd be getting 11 or so ND games every year.

We could always add Air Force, with the caveat that they have to fly us around to all these games in every sport.

Travel time would be awesome.

Kentucky really never seceded, aktually.  North Carolina was the last state to secede, they and Virginia went after Sumter.  Had Lincoln let South Carolina and the rest go, no war, a kind of small southern country, and still slave states in the US.

Might have been a better choice?
In a perfectly good realignment thread (which everyone LOVES), did you just advocate for continued slavery the past 160 years?!?!?!

That is kind of what it sounded like.

We're through the looking glass now, people.

"The moves allow USC and UCLA teams to be seen by more fans on the East Coast. In a statement, UCLA cited 'better television time slots for our road games' as a reason for joining the Big Ten." Citation: Big Ten likely to see bigger TV deal with addition of USC, UCLA (detroitnews.com)

USC and UCLA can now play their games at 9:05 a.m. (PT) and their fans can start  lighting their grilles and icing their coolers at 4:00 a.m. for home games, as far as I am concerned.

Does anyone think ND may get a sweetheart deal from anyone?  A more than 1 share thing?  I don't think the B1G or SEC would offer it, but the ACC might, knowing they're a level below the others.

Land Grant Pod:  PSU, MSU, UMd, RU
Woody Schembechler Pod:  OSU, UM, IU, PU
Lumberjack Pod:  MN, WI, ILL, NW
Surf n Turf Pod:  UNL, Iowa, USC, UCLA
.
Each team plays the 3 in their pod and 2 from each of the others (9 gms), and the other 2 from the other pods the next year.

Could work for 16, but not for 20, which is where we are headed.
