So the Big Ten will likely sell the other half to ESPN or NBC.
Their old deal was 10 years 1 billion with ESPN.
Now they are looking at a new deal of 6 years 3 billion dollars for all of their rights.
In 2013 the ACC amended their contract with ESPN for 15 years 4 billion.
The Big Ten will get more money but the gaps won't be ungodly huge. The Big Ten will get more because of the BTN cash cow.
Big Ten rights will be thru 2023 while the ACC rights are thru 2029. That is the problem. The ACC had to give up years to get more money.
