I do agree there will be some demand for the ACCN in New England


However, demand may not be as big of an issue if the ACCN is bundled in with a package so it is just about everyone's household whether they watch it or not. Then when you starting talking about UConn and UMass it got me thinking about your response in our other discussion (thread is down below) about UConn's connection to the Hartford market. Hence why I responded the way I did in my OP in this thread.

If the ACCN is already being offered in the Hartford market in majority of the households because of BC and maybe even Syracuse via the NYC metro market, then what "value" does UConn offer the ACC? If the ACC is truly trying to enhance its football reputation then it may be tougher for UConn to persuade the conference to take a chance on them.
