[QUOTE="Mountaineer Steve, post: 129536005, member: 1495432"] f Both the ACC and BIG12 are going to be at a major disadvantage, and that won't change without a network for either conference. The ACCN has two issues [LIST=1] [*]ESPN already owns all their rights and they have no reason to create a network which will cost them 10's of millions with a good chance of loosing money for the foreseeable future [*]The ACC market is an overlay of the BIG and the SEC, both of which have created new networks that cable companies had to pick up. These cable companies aren't likely to agree to adding additional cost to their dwindling cord cutting customer base [/LIST] The BIG12 1 major issue is the TexA$$ LHN. If this can be resolved to the satisfaction of all parties then a BIG12N will be created. The 1st one to get a network puts the other conference even further behind nationally making it vulnerable for poaching by the other P4. A BIG12 is light years ahead of its current position if it can add teams like FSU and Clemson. Likewise the ACC would get a huge boast if they could add teams like Texas, OU, KU, and or OSU. Again I full believe the conference that does not get a network is doomed to a lower status. [/QUOTE]
