The market is set for the Pac-12.
Of note:
The Big Ten plans to “dominate” Saturday football, the conference said.
Its schedule will include marquee games at noon ET on Fox, 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS, and primetime on NBC.
NBC will attempt to make the Big Ten the NFL of college football, using the Saturday night window as a complement to “Sunday Night Football,” as FOS previously reported. NBC games will also be simul-streamed on Peacock.
The rights for all sports will be shared between FOX, CBS, NBC, and Peacock. The deal runs from July 1, 2023, to the end of the 2029-30 season.
In total, the deal will reach the mid-$7 billion range, a source told FOS, and will increase gradually over the seven years.
For the first year — before USC and UCLA join the conference — each existing school will receive about the same amount as in the final year of its current deal. Then, the value could reach up to $90 million annually per school.
(Note: the word "COULD")
Pac-12, ESPN, SEC and ACC will do what they need to do to also put great match-ups in these same windows. I personally think this could backfire, namely on NBC, if no one outside of the Big-10 cares about the Big-10. Kind of how its shaping up to be.
