Perhaps.I believe this sends a POWERFUL message to Notre Dame...
The SEC got shafted royally by CBS. And now CBS has over paid for an inferior product. Idiots are running that corporation.In all honesty where does Sankey go after this move? Is ESPN willing to pony up more money and secondly it makes you wonder why the SEC’s previous media rights deal with CBS was lower than what it should have been
True but I didn’t understand why the SEC was so comfortable taking less to begin withThe SEC got shafted royally by CBS. And now CBS has over paid for an inferior product. Idiots are running that corporation.
Again, this is stupid on many fronts for both CBS and NBC. Seriously think about it… how many great Big 10 games are on each Saturday? With Fox not having to worry about Texas or Oklahoma, the attention is going to be fully on Ohio St, Michigan, USC, and PSU. Both CBS and NBC are going to be hoping Nebraska and Wisconsin are good so they could get some good views.Perhaps.
It all depends on what Notre Dame can get out of NBC. And seeing as how NBC only gets 7 games from Notre Dame each season, I don't see how in the wide world they can command the 70 million per year they seem to be wanting.
I think NBC is clearly showing they want in on the college football market, and that Notre Dame home games are not enough. So... maybe you're right.
Nope I don't either.True but I didn’t understand why the SEC was so comfortable taking less to begin with
Power move to convince ND to come over seeing a small portion of their traditional rivals reside in the Big10Again, this is stupid on many fronts for both CBS and NBC.

Notre Dame isn’t worried at all about this… They are probably saying “Didn’t NBC go all in on the XFL too?” If anything is concerning to Notre Dame it would be the B1G schedule preventing them playing USC. Other than that this doesn’t make Notre Dame shiver at all…
Oh it clearly is. Fox retains the big match up each Saturday at noon. There are going to be several Northwestern vs. Iowa match ups for that 3:30 CBS game each Saturday.Again, this is stupid on many fronts for both CBS and NBC.

Well ND has seen that for some time and still said “yeah we are good as is”Power move to convince ND to come over seeing a small portion of their traditional rivals reside in the Big10
I’m just assuming that it’s going to go 1) Fox 2) CBS and 3) NBC. NBC also still has Notre Dame so I guess it makes more sense to them.Oh it clearly is.

Can’t wait to hear Gary Danielson squeeze Kick Six and Tim Tebow jump pass references into a Maryland vs Rutgers slugfest.
The big matchup is not at noon -- but at either 3:30pm or 8 (EST). Those times will have more viewers...and the stadiums will have more of a chance to be rocking. IMHO, the Big 10 has done an end run around the SEC on this one by having 3 networks show their games...time will tell.Oh it clearly is. Fox retains the big match up each Saturday at noon.

You are forgetting two vital things… 1) Fox doesn’t care if 2:30 is better than 11am (see Bama vs Texas) and 2) the B1G traditionally plays bigger games at either 11 am or 7pm.The big matchup is not at noon -- but at either 3:30pm or 8 (EST).

Fox will care when their games are an after thought -- part of the BIG 12 beef is with this start time.You are forgetting two vital things… 1) Fox doesn’t care if 2:30 is better than 11am (see Bama vs Texas) and 2) the B1G traditionally plays bigger games at either 11 am or 7pm.
We are just too accustomed to CBS not wanting to compete with ESPN that we forget that if a huge game is at 2:30 or 7pm it really makes no difference.
Btw did you know that Tim Tebow and Riley Cooper were roommates?
