They could sublicense a hand full of games from other networks.


CBS does it for basketball games all of the time. ESPN could sublicense a hand full of B1G games to show at a much better rate than overpaying for the B1G package. That would be a much better business decision for ESPN.

I personally think it would be refreshing not to have to trip over B1G games on ESPN and to not have to listen to GameDay discuss the B1G on Saturday Morning. But I'm not a B1G fan anyway.
