It’s a game of chicken now


The conferences are likely having a bunch of conversations with various schools and networks. Now we wait to see who blinks first.

The SEC move was too big for everyone else to just sit back and watch. And ESPN will dangle the carrot of even more money from an expanded playoff to try and influence things. If the other conferences don’t do anything then the SEC will strike again.

For the teams in ACC, B12 and PAC there is value in some brands, value in numbers and value in geography/markets. The B12 leftovers do have value because they are headcount and they are potential wins.
