I agree.
So Fox and Disney are going to try and hold Nebraska to a contract where Nebraska receives no money?

They don't have a contract with Nebraska. They have a contract with the Big 10, and the Big 10 has a contract with Nebraska which gives them the authority to negotiate Nebraska's media rights. Nebraska would have to void their contract with the Big 10. Were they to do so and join the Big 12, they'd be sacrificing roughly $20 million every year going forward. Sacrificing that revenue for a short term gain would be very foolish, to put it kindly.

I don't think some of these Big10 teams are going to sit back and give up all that tv money while they lose players and recruits to schools that play this fall. I could see several Big10 teams try to contact SEC ACC and Big 12 about playing games. Especially after B10 stops season but allows schools to practice 20 hours a week.

They don't have a choice. That's how contracts work. The conference chose to shut it down by an overwhelming margin. The vote was 12-2.

If Nebraska and Iowa want to go elsewhere, then fine. They can back out of the most lucrative media contract in college sports for the sake of playing a truncated, bastardized version of a football season. Or, they tough it out and work toward a Spring season. Worst case scenario they lose out on the whole year and get back on schedule next Fall.

A contract without consideration is just a piece of paper.

So, you're of the belief that if no games get played and no money is paid, and neither party chooses to serve notice to the other, then the parties will have no choice but to renegotiate a contract that neither one will have alleged that the other broke?

There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that Nebraska is going back to the Big 12. They aren't going to sacrifice 8 figures worth of revenue every single year because of one year of being unable to play. Within 3 years they'll more than make up the difference.

If Huskers go back the B12 TV contract will get much larger, and they will get a chance to play for a NATTY and or NY day bowl games. Something the B10 will not allow, look at how the Huskers were being scheduled in the B10 only format. The OSU love fest was completely revealed.

Ohio State coming to sec this year?

Nope but maybe some of their players. I think think the SEC, ACC and B12 should expand their rosters to 100 (the risk of Covid quarrantines require more players to be ready, right) immediate eligibility, and if the NCAA or the other conferences have a problem.... see ya!

I need someone to help me understand how they can have practice 20 hours/week when it is not "in season" for them? Are they going to sacrifice practice time in the spring instead? Or are they going to get more practice time than any other conference? If they postpone/cancel their season, how can they have in-season practice?

Sankey said in today's News Sentinel that if the Big 10 and Pac 12 opt not to play football this fall that the SEC probably won't play either.

I read somewhere this morning the Big 10 split is around 55 million and the Big 12 is around 35 million. If true....Nebraska isn't going anywhere.

Do you have a link to that? Because he has tweeted they will continue taking their time and see how things go as recently as yesterday AFTER it was already known the Big 10 and Pac 12 were not playing.

Sankey said on the Dan Patrick Show yesterday that it's unlikely the SEC would go it alone...I did hear that.

That is mostly correct. Last year, the pool of shared revenue (from TV contracts, bowl game payouts, its take of the CFP, and other sources) that the Big 10 splits among its 14 teams totaled $781.5 million, and amounted to $55,600,000 per school.

The Big 12 doesn't split its revenue equally among the schools; certain schools receive larger cuts. Their pool of revenue (again, from TV contracts, bowl game payouts, its take of the CFP, and other sources) that was split among its 10 teams totaled $439 million. It was split into amounts ranging from $38,200,000 to $42,000,000 (which was likely Texas's take last year).

Nebraska and Iowa should just ask to join the Big 12 for 2020; IF they want to play and IF the Big 12 does in fact follow through. I do NOT understand all the Hysteria over a Virus that has been proven over and over to be curable. NOW, all of you Virology Degree'd Scientists and Front Line Doctors line up and sound off; but be SURE you are a qualified level above Dr Harvey Risch; MD, PHD---YALE Medical School. Others need not apply.

HA!...Yeah let em come on down here to the big leagues and get that rear end kicked almost every week...OSU hasn't beaten an SEC team since moby dick was a minnow.

Didn’t they beat Arkansas in the 2011-2012 bowl season and Alabama in 2014-2015 bowl season?

(Though I think the Arkansas win was vacated as far as records go.)
