The TV contract base is an average of $20 million a year over 14 years. A curiosity about the numbers is that they match the actual calendar year in regards to the TV millions. With $20 million just on TV in 2020. That before any "bumps" regarding a network or the look-ins that in 2017 and 2022. The B10 is putting 12% more content out with it's TV bid in 2017 than the ACC due to the difference in conference games. Barron told FSU folks a year ago that if there is no network ESPN would put in an additional $2 million per year.

Based on all sources of revenue, the ACC would be at $24.5 in 14/15, $35 or so million at the midpoint in 2020, and at $47 or so million at the end in 2027 - that's with no look in's and no ACC network that generates more than $2 million a year. After 2018 the ACC would be running at about 80% of B10 money. If 9 conference games comes about in return for a 10% bump to TV, that disparity closes to about 83%.

I've always heard 85% as the magic ratio of ACC to B10 money meaning that ESPN will do what it needs to in order to keep the ACC at 85% or better of the B10.

Excellent find - thanks for sharing!

So how much is the ACC being paid per team from August 2014 to August 2015?

Should be $15M for TV, $1.8 for the Orange Bowl, and whatever the league profits/earnings turn out to be for the ACC CG, ACC BT and NCAA BT.

Not to shabby.

Should be about $24.5 million total. The number I keep seeing for the playoff is $55 million so divide that by 15 and you get $3.67 million. NCAA related revenues for basketball and other distributions are going to run around $5 million per team.

Thanks, looks even better!

I think the look-in periods could be a valuable part of the ACC/ESPN contract. On the other hand, we don't really know what they're to be used for because word hasn't really leaked out about it. They may not help much at all.

The only thing that's clear about them is that ESPN will use it as an opportunity to evaluate what's best for them. They aren't going to pay the ACC more money for nothing or give them chicks for free.
