                         Read how network contracts work. A&M already gives us the - lqf2b8 STL - 7/22 00:38:13
                              And the SEC does not want to see either of them pick up - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/22 01:06:56

                                                  Wrong, without OU and UT ESPN and Fox would make nothing - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/22 01:24:56
                                                       The contract is with the Big XII conference and ESPN - SSN 780 MU - 7/22 02:31:10
                                   why? I've said why tejas adds nothing and I'm open to - lqf2b8 STL - 7/22 00:35:10

                                                  I think this is a play between ESPN/SEC and Fox/Big 10. - TigerMatt STL - 7/22 01:31:18
                                                       I think is is safe to assume that the other four P5 - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/22 01:45:50
