Message: [QUOTE="orangeinjersey, post: 418744, member: 1961"] I get that Michigan has a rabid fan base, and if their Tier II games are on B10 network, then yes, they need to have it. Multiply that by the number of rabid fanbases in B10 (OSU, Mich, PSU etc) and you can see why they make the money they do. From an ACC perspective, I just dont see that same "demand" for the football product. Thats just the way it is. Besides Clemson, and maybe FSU, I am not seeing those rabid football fanbases. It is what it is. Think about what the B1G is doing. They are becoming the defacto "NFL Commisioners Office" of the NCAA. They are inviting teams and making them apart of THEIR TV Distribution package. Why the doesnt the B1G 10 just keep expanding to include EVERY current Big5 school, split them up into four 16 team "Divisions" and create a playoff format where the Division winners play for a championship. Ohhhh becuase that would be illegal right? [/QUOTE]
