Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3915771, member: 652"] Of course ESPN is behind this. They own the SEC fully now. Getting Texas and Oklahoma into the SEC gives ESPN all of those teams home games whereas in the Big XII the football contract is divided between ESPN and Fox. Fox has had the Texas-Oklahoma game several times in recent years. ESPN is clearly screwing the Big XII for that reason. ESPN is also part of the reason the ACC survived the Big Ten onslaught last cycle. I know all conferences need bottom feeders my point was basically telling the ND fan you guys act like you are above being partners with teams below you when other blue bloods do exactly that. I don’t expect Notre Dame to bail out the ACC. I just want them to be forced to make a decision. Enough status quo crap. If they want to join the Big Ten then let them out of the agreement with the ACC and do it. [/QUOTE]
