I think Dan Wetzel at Yahoo has said it's not about eyeballs, but that they can jack up the subscriber fee if a B1G school is in that state. This shite is going to come crashing down at some point. I'm not sure if it's cord cutting or a la carte packaging, but one day we're going to look back at realignment and think it was completely stupid. But, I guess if the money is so good now, it doesn't really matter.


True, but since all big ten schools have such large alumni bases and statewide fan support a la carte programming works for a big ten channel. If you're a Rutgers fan you choose to pay for the Big Ten network for Rutgers sports.

Exactly. B1GN and SECN aren't going to be hurt nearly as bad as other channels. They both have millions of people that watch them. Hell I wish I got the B1GN because I just love college football and college sports.
