This is all about football and college football wasn’t broken. Why are they trying to fix it?
I hate it too, but if SEC schools on their own would have stopped scheduling dogshit opponents like UT Martin, New Mexico, Middle Tennessee, Mercer, UMass, SELA, etc..., then TV people wouldn't be doing this. It seems like they're tired of paying exorbitant amounts of money for broadcast rights and then having to put dogshit like that on the air.

I just read on ESPN that the ACC plans to use the Dallas area as a hub for non revenue sport competition to reduce travel time / travel expense.
How stupid are these people?

But is that sustainable for all their sports to try and make it out to these states many times a year?

Once FSU, Clemson and UNC leave, it will not be a power conference.

We can cross that bridge when it happens in 2034/5/6

I don’t see how this is sustainable in any way for non revenue sports. Really thought they’d park those sports on the west coast.

They were so desperate to be that Metroplex team, they agreed to do it for free.

Not sure where they’d put a field.

Annoyingly shocked for two decades there wasn't more pressure by the Networks (considering what they were paying) to force South-West, Midwest-South, big-time OOC games...when there was WWE vitriol. I mean, the storylines were made in heaven.
Instead we got same old, don't travel, rake in dough with a rent-a-win at home. Saban cha-ching!
People didn't rebel and tune out.
Scheduling championships, public should hate. We didn't demand more from the sport.
Its an embarrassment that teams who consistently finished #1 or in the Top 5, constantly scheduled directional Nunneries when they didn't have to.
If you're the best, it's your duty to entertain and try to play the best, not shy away for... "weekend spa treatment."
Shocked ESPN was okay, throwing money away at Alabama vs. Georgia Southern.
