    AGGIE TRAINING, SIR! 

    -Captain?

    "Uh these are Sgt. Hulka's men sir.  He was injured when he, as many Aggies do, fell off of a damaged wooden structure at height, sir."

    So the guy hasn't coached a game yet for Colorado and he's calling the shots for what conference they'll be in?

    He might not even be there anymore when they make the move.

    Yeah, I found Dennis Dodds reporting on this laughable too.
    "Neon Deion has gotta sign off on a move to the Big 12!" Bullshit

    I really think they're gonna kick the can down the road a season or two.

    Anytime a university president mentions, "...the student-athlete's well-being" it's an eye-roller. No concern for that while the basketball team is jetting around the country. How many UK ballers even go to class live rather than online?

    If you have to rely on playing Ball State to get into the playoffs, then fuck you, you don't deserve to be in the playoffs.  Playing Ball State should automatically remove you from consideration for any postseason games, be they playoff or bowl games.

    There should be even more emphasis on SOS with a 12-game playoff to justify your spot.

    But, most sportswriters are either dumb and/or lazy. Just buy into the ESPN hype.

    I agree with both of these posts. I'll fucking vomit if we get handed an 8 game schedule because of a bunch of mouthbreathing jellyfish can't muster the courage to play 9 conference games every year. As well, this looks like posturing and logic and $$ will win out in the end.

    An 8-game SEC schedule makes zero sense with an expanded, 12-team CFB playoff.

    That's terrible. 

    Yeah, I don't see the point in "ghost logos" or whatever the hell this is supposed to be.

    The decal will be illegible unless the lighting is just right.

    The Horns down in that context was just hilarious to begin with. A&M was down 5 runs and 7 outs away from being eliminated by Texas. 

    Wasn't it Arky hillbillies who invented the "horns down"?

    Yet both aggy and okies want to claim it as their own.

    That’s not why you’re leaving. The SEC is full of bad actors.  You’re leaving for more money and more big home games.

    You forgot increased exposure from Disney/ABC/ESPN's media hype train.

    Look what it did for aggy

    Teaching the football team to march.... 

     

    Wasn't it Bear Bryant himself (and I'm paraphrasing from Junction Boys) who told the A&M admin, "...to keep the toy soldiers away from my football players."

    Games will be streamed but they will be streamed on ESPN/FOX or a streaming service like Amazon Prime Video still. The SEC or Big Ten isn’t likely to launch their own service like the PAC12 attempted. And don’t discount old/poor people still watching OTA (that’s where the Big Ten was really smart in prioritizing OTA content).

    The SEC’s contract is about to be renegotiated with UT/OU joining and going to 9 conference games.

    The 7 don’t need invites to the SEC/B1G, simply getting invited to the Big12 will get them paid. ESPN (even without FOX chipping in) will pay the ACC teams more in the Big 12 than they would make staying in ACC.

    This is why I suspect ESPN will give over more money now to keep its ACC inventory from FOX in exchange for 9 conference games and better OOC matchups (organized by ESPN against the SEC/B12).

    How much more will Big 12 teams make vs ACC? $2-3MM per year?

    Yeah, the ACC should bump their conference slate to 9 games for ESPN to match the Big 12 pay-outs. That should've happened yesterday. This still puts ACC teams, what, $20MM behind SEC/B1G teams annually? 

  11. Has anyone seen the SEC's new media contract(s)?

    Even if the "Magnificant 7" were able to breakaway from the ACC, there's no guarantee any will get SEC or B1G invites. And how does FSU and Clemson intend to squeeze the ACC for disproportionate shares? With a threat they're leaving in 2036? Good luck with that.

    This is turning into one big circle jerk.
