No one is saying they aren’t. It’s bigger than that though. They are trying to take the Longhorn network and turn it into Big12 network. The four markets added surpass viewers of those two departing teams, even if those teams have better individual followings. Look at the link I provided. The ratings speak for themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games with over 2.0 million viewers Leftover Eight w/o OUand UT= 6 Games with OU and UT= 27 Games with new Four additions = 4 Games with over 3.0 million viewers Leftover Eight= 1 OU and UT= 13 New Four = 2 Games with over 4 million viewers Leftover Eight= 0 Texas and Oklahoma = 7 New Four= 0 Games with over 5 million viewers LeftOver Eight = 0 Texas and Oklahoma = 2 New Four=0 Games with over 6 million viewers Left Over Eight=0 Texas and Oklahoma = 1 New Four=0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lewis Posted July 19, 2022 Group: Member Topic Count: 18 Content Count: 2,921 Reputation: 2,352 Days Won: 33 Joined: 09/25/2013 Share Posted July 19, 2022 The Houston market probably had better viewership for Texas games than for the University of Houston games, so that could be a net loss for the Big 12 right there. Adding the Cincinnati and Orlando markets certainly helps, even if the programs in those respective cities are in heavy competition for ratings. BYU's national brand may help the most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say anyone would pay more for those markets than ou/t individually. They just add more viewers overall in new areas than what’s leaving, which helps everyone involved, and ultimately involves more money. Inflation also matters. And demand, which there happens to be right now with FOX, ESPN, and now NBC interested in big 12 content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that the Big 12 didn’t like our current revenue stream that we get (or don’t get) from being at Ray Jay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
