The article that I copied that table from is dated but an interesting reference in all the realignment discussions. According to the article, the largest CFB fanbases (circa 2011) were (fanbase size in millions):

  • 3.2 Ohio State
  • 2.9 Michigan
  • 2.6 Penn State
I wonder how they came up with this data

I read the article a long time ago. I think they used clicks and internet site visits. 

I'm sure it isn't perfect but I'm pretty sure it is objective and reasonably close.

I find a few of them questionable, but data is data

No answer on the FSU to the Big Ten rumor in this Tallahassee Democrat article from July 29, 2023.  In fact, other than a meeting scheduled for Aug. 2, 2023 by the Board of Trustees with no athletic department agenda item attached to it, is old news from August 2022:

"Last August, new  FSU President Richard McCullough at the Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce Conference at Amelia Island shared his thoughts for the first time publicly on the conference chaos. 'It's something I'm spending a lot of time on and we're getting a lot of help,' McCullough said. 'We're trying to do anything we can to think about how we remain competitive. Florida State is expected to win.'
 'We're going to be very aggressive.' " FSU leaving ACC? Board of Trustees meeting set amid realignment buzz (tallahassee.com)

PAC-12 TV deal is streaming-only on Apple TV.  $15 mil per year, per school.

Bye bye bye.

Do G5 conferences have TV deals?  How much do they pay out?  What about the ACC?

What do you think the new B12 is looking at per team next year?

Pac-12 commish presents potential TV deal to school leaders with no agreement being reached, per reports - CBSSports.com

According to ESPN, the proposed deal was streaming-centric through Apple and would incentivize tiers with an upside if certain subscription numbers are met. The agreement would start in 2024-25 and begin with a relatively low payout relative to what league members had hoped. Compensation would incrementally improve, with high-end estimates that would be competitive with the Big 12 and ACC in the future.

The Pac-12's contract and grant of rights expire on June 30, 2024. For all intents and purposes, the league will legally cease to exist if a deal is not struck before the date. The Pac-12 is presently the only Power Five league not locked into a deal through at least 2031. 
The quality of the deal Kliavkoff presents to the Pac-12 will represent a decision day of sorts across the conference with the Big 12 openly keeping its eye on many Pac-12 schools. 

"All I keep saying is, you know, we're just waiting to get a deal" Arizona president Robert Robbins told The Athletic. "And then everybody has to evaluate the deal on its merits. I've been pretty steadfast in that stance." 

The Big 12 renewed a contract with ESPN and Fox that will pay schools more than $31 million per year on average. The Pac-12 has flirted with providers from Amazon to Apple TV+ and the CW.

And that doesn't include Tier3 rights, which B12 schools are free to negotiate on their own.  Kansas does really well with Tier3, and BYU probably does as well.  The other schools will likely only get a couple of million per year, though, so it's not overly incremental when comparing contracts.

I think streaming *MIGHT* work for a VERY popular school with a large a rabid fanbase. I'm thinking here of schools like Alabama and Ohio State. Those schools have large fanbases and the fans are interested enough to look into it, figure out where they need to go, and cough up a few bucks to watch their team. 

I think this is an abject disaster for the Pac because there aren't many rabid CFB fans on the West Coast.

It's apparently still a proposed deal, from what I posted.
