ESPN firmly on side of AAC. B12 made an enemy of ESPN, which probably means ESPN will try to destroy B12.

B12 TV value just dropped like a rock. ESPN won't bid on next contract and they might get peanuts.

Do you still want to go to Big 12?

I do but mainly because I know that the BIg 12 leftovers have some better value than we have toward the bottom of this conference and by eliminating, we all gain.

Also, there is NO way Bowlsby will be with the Big 12 shortly. I can see a large number of AAC schools merging with the Big 12 and Aresco would be a top target to run that conference.

Yes it sucks for 3 teams but it will be considerably better for the 8 that make it.

May the odds be in all your favor.

Why do people keep thinking schools will be left out? The AAC controls things, why would any existing members be left behind? No one is going anywhere because from top to bottom the AAC is way more valuable than the remaining Big 12 schools.

It's comparable. The remaining XII teams get UH/UCF/Memphis ratings. That's top half in the AAC.
