News flash, the SEC and ACC have networks too. Isn’t there’s called ESPN? No, but they were smart and partnered with ESPN, which the Pac-12 Network should have done. Part of me hopes the ready-to-go TV network the conference still has might be the trump card that gets us into the Big 12. We have a network that could easily be rebranded and on the air the following day. Right now the Big 12 doesn't want us. Several months down the road, who knows. They want a TV network. The Pac-12 has one that would essentially eliminate a lot of their startup costs. Letting us in might help defray the cost of all that network hardware. |

Is it me or is the tv networks that carry the Big10 in Oregon advertising much more than they usually do? In fact I did not even know the Big10 had its own network much like the Pac-12 network until I saw it on sling. That is on top of Fox and CBS? Yes and it's absolutely massive. Fox is the majority owner of the BTN. The payout from subscribers is millions a year for each team in that conference. |

Lol...more accessible? Guess his definition is on different networks? Oregon games will be 5th or lower on the pecking order unless they are playing PSU, UM, tOSU, MSU... no one in their market gives one piece of crap about watching Oregon. Can't wait to hear the bitching when tailgaters have to start at 8am. The hoity toity like their prime time parties. But, of course both better like later starts as that is the time frame the B10 is missing. It's interesting that with all the disagreements we have had over the years, we are practically in lockstep on most, if not all, of the issues regarding conference realignment and OSU's role/place/importance in it. Yeah, can't wait for that noon ET kickoff when Oregon plays at Penn State, Ohio State, Rutgers or Maryland. I remember when we had a 10 a.m. or 9 a.m. PT kickoff at Louisville, the local part of the tailgate show started at 5 a.m. or thereabouts. what about B1G after dark  |
