[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 132085809, member: 1428007"] Do you know what the article is about? He is trying to pretend PAC 12 schools rated higher than BIG 12 schools because Texas and OU were far bigger tv draws than USC and UCLA. To make his already flawed case he SKEWS the numbers by eliminating the lower rated games (under 1 mil viewers), Doesn't mention that every BIG 12 team played both Texas and OU each year while almost none of the PAC schools played USC or UCLA each year. Also leaves out that some of the PAC schools games aren't rated each year because they are on the PAC network and rated so low they don't count, while only one game from BIG 12 schools was NOT rated on a national platform. But again, tv executives and negotiators will see all of this such as that when Baylor and OK State played in last years CCG, they rated 4 million viewers MORE than the PAC 12 CCG which didn't include either USC or UCLA. And in a NOON game to boot. They'll also evaluate ALL tv numbers along with many other things. And we already know that experts in the field predict the BIG 12 will be at a much higher $$ figure than the PAC will when its said and done--something you conveniently leave out for your shill bosses to try to put down the BIG 12. Stop lying about the BIG 12 in an effort to make your dying conference look better. [/QUOTE]
