Really?
What SEC Big 12 match-ups?
There is absolutely zero interest for match-ups with Big 12 teams outside of Texas and Oklahoma. The SEC is an ESPN property as is The ACC. Why would ESPN be interested in having one of its prime properties put money in Fox's pocket?

The following Big XII teams not named Texas or Oklahoma have games scheduled against "ESPN Property" P5 conferences (discounting the B1G in this since the real chance of Fox taking them):

Baylor - Duke (ACC)
Kansas - Duke (ACC)
Kansas State - Auburn (SEC)
Oklahoma State - FSU, Pittsburgh
TCU - Arkansas (SEC)
Texas Tech - Arkansas (SEC)
West Virginia - Alabama (SEC) Virginia Tech (ACC)

If you add in the B1G games scheduled the number gets way higher, and certainly not "zero interest" as you claimed.

ACC and SEC teams only schedule The Big 12 as a last resort. There is simply no interest.

Actually, that's a good description of the fans of the ACC during football season. No interest. Now the ACC is ahead of the American and the rest of the G5 in attendance.

When you have had a statement you completely made up totally destroyed by facts it's a good idea to bow out of the conversation. Trying to cover up the fact you made up the original statement by making up another just makes you look stupid.

Don't tell Arkansas, they signed a home/home with Texas Tech.

That'll never happen since the ACC has teams above the Mason-Dixon line.

Some schools actually do play games north (see LSU) others are just chickensh!t (see UF).

Actually you proved my point, thus was no reason to respond. There will be little to no national interest in that selection of games except FSU and perhaps Alabama. The rest won't move the national needle and will probably end up on some Fox regional broadcast right next to bull riding and barrel racing.

So you have made the choice to keep digging the idiot hole. Gotcha.

Doesn't even understand the difference between Fox Sports, FS1 and the regional sports networks.

Or the fact that ESPN/ABC have part of the Big XII's rights as well.
