That's what I calculated. (12 x 31) - (11 x 27) = 372 - 297 = 75

So BYU could join the SEC and be right in line with the money!

It’s so obvious that the lack of adding BYU was petty politics, not financial.

ESPN knows exactly what they have with BYU. That is the benefit of a stand alone

Mister P

That's pretty amazing. Especially from an outside source

Nothing says money shot like BYU!

Exactly what I was thinking. I don’t think OP knows the meaning of that term.

He probably does. It was the reporter that said it though.

I wish they had the 3 guys on camera when he said that--would love to have

Sounds like we can expect at least four night games to fill the After Dark ESPN

Nat Gas Man

3/21/23 9:37pm

Why not? Gives us an advantage and a great shot to win

gmj81

Well for one

Nat Gas Man

Borg

With that value BYU would not be dilutive to sec or b10

Dr T-bone

3/21/23 10:35pm

Well said - although I’d prefer discrimination vs arrogance
