2011 SEC Football (Home of 7 of 13 BCS Championships including the last 5)

i don't see the point of every team joining the SEC. it only makes it tougher for all of the schools involved.

I'm surprised no one is discussing Texas A&M bailing on the Big 12 and possibly joining the SEC.

SEC presidents meeting Sunday to talk addition of Texas A&M

Thats exactly what my post a few up is about.

SEC doesn't extend invitation to Texas A&M, but leaves options open - ESPN

hahaha so after all of this, the SEC doesn't even want A&M. not that I can blame the SEC, they'd be a bottom tier SEC team

TAMU will vote tomorrow to leave the Big 12/10, than the SEC will extend an invitation. All this was today was a legal maneuver protecting the SEC.

Also the presidents have an agreement not to invite a school from an existing SEC state. So I would assume Missouri would be the choice.

Well it didn't exactly say that. I wish it had though, and not with disrespect towards A&M. I just dont want to expand I also know it will happen.

I have a feeling you are right and hope not.

It will happen within the next 30 days, A&M just went about it the wrong way.

 

[mdonnelly]

A&M would be bailing out on a lot of ESPN money to leave the Big-12 now, and they would have to divide up the SEC money into smaller chunks for more teams. I would think they'd wait until the Big-12 ESPN contract is up. Maybe that's what the negotiations are all about.

 

[osu1991]

That contract is not up until 2015-2016. ESPN and Fox money is what it is all about now.

 

[Ronnie-]

If and when the new teams join, expect the current contracts to be renegotiated. There is a "look in" window built in to the contracts for just that and from what I've read Slve had it moved up to next season. This whole mess is all about money, so they for sure aren't going to settle for less in that regard.

 

[osu1991]

Expect the SEC tv contract to jump into the 4.5 to 5 billion range depending on what tv markets they add.
