Message: [QUOTE="WoadBlue, post: 5346412, member: 1145"] You are assuming, it seems, that winning equals TV viewers. It does not. Only in extremes does it for short periods. For example, if BC has back to back 11-1 teams while Clemson has back to back 3-9 teams, it is a given in the coming season BC will be set to draw many more viewers than Clemson. But that will not last. If both Clemson and BC are 8-4 in that season, then the next one will see Clemson shooting past BC in viewers easily, unless Clemson has another 3 win season while BC gets another 8 win season. A school like BC must win more more than one like Clemson to draw the same number of viewers. That is the ACC problem. Too many private and other smaller schools and not enough schools that draw well every year unless they really tank totally. And form many that still would require back to back awful seasons. [/QUOTE]
