Now no network loves AAC and is committed to its success.

I actually think ESPN along with its B5 business partners (lets call them what they are) are committed to the AAC's failure.

AAC is a junk stock already and it has barely been a year. . . . . . . this has been even faster than my dour predictions.

So any evidence here? Other than P5 hyperbole?

 

 

 

LOL

 

The BC AD that said ESPN told them what to do

SEC Network

Longhorn Network

"ACC on ESPN"

 

Sorry, I only had ten seconds

Exactly. Some of the games done by that one female play by play announcer were almost as tough to watch because of her voice as the poor play of USF.  Not hating on female announcers in general, just

 Are you saying that The AAC is NOT a junk stock? If so, what reasoning do you use?

I don't think junk is the correct term. More like vulnerable. It's been a year and Aresco talked of branding and exposure opportunies. Instead ESPN dismantled the Big East blog and appears to be sub licensing games to sports networks on higher tiers with fewer subscribers. Aresco talked that the ACC is a power conference too but how many games will be featured, promoted and hyped on ESPN?

According the AAC BBS site looks like the following USF games will be on CBS Sports Network.

9/6 - Maryland at USF

9/13 - N.C. State at USF

East Carolina at USF

USF at Tulsa

Houston at USF

USF at SMU

USF at Memphis

UCF at USF

 

So this means the only game that is NOT going to be televised will be our first game... that seems better than the past few seasons when we would have two or three games only on ESPN3.

vs WCU - ESPN3

vs MD - CBSSN

vs NC St - CBSSN

vs UConn - ESPN/ESPN2

@ Wisconsin - ESPN/ESPN2/ABC or BigTen   (every Big Ten home game is televised)

vs ECU - CBSSN

@ Tulsa - CBSSN

@ Cincy - ESPN/ESPN2

vs Houston - CBSSN

@ SMU - CBSSN

@ Memphis - CBSSN

vs UCF - CBSSM

It's all perspective. Which is lacking among college athletics fans.

This chart shows that CBSSN has ~ half the subs of ESPN/ESPN2 and ~25 million less than NBC Sports Network due to it being on a higher tier of programming. So on one hand, more games on tv, but half the previous potential audience, about 50 million less households subscribe to it than the two ESPN channels.

 This could possibly have a big impact on home start times (at least for fans used to 7pm et starts).

Looking forward to more 12 and 3:30pm games

Touché. I would say...perhaps money isn't the end-all-be-all of college football?...
