[QUOTE="topdecktiger, post: 129528783, member: 1459051"] I'm not questioning the author's research. I'm questioning yours. You are making the argument that because Boston College doesn't bring in as much as Florida St or Clemson, they aren't beneficial to the ACC. Well, that's simply incorrect. That's proven by the fact the ACC's contract went up when Boston College was added. That also brings me to Maryland. Maryland was the 3rd worst in the ACC. They came in -21%. Yet, the Big Ten took them. Well, that makes no sense. It would be completely illogical for the Big Ten to take Maryland if Maryland didn't add any value to the league. Obviously they do, which is why the Big Ten chose them. Similarly with the ACC and Boston College. Explain to me why the Big Ten would take Maryland, if Maryland didn't make money. Aside from that, you keep ignoring several points I brought up. The main one is that having Boston College in the league gets the other ACC teams into the Boston market, when they otherwise wouldn't. Take Florida St. They get good ratings, but they can't get good ratings if they aren't on TV in the first place. Well, that's the whole point. Many times, ACC games would not even be broadcasted in the Boston market, if the ACC didn't have a team there. THAT is the value Boston College provides. I have made that point several times, and you ignore it each time. Another point. Over the last several years, attendance at college football games has been down across the board. However, the ratings have been up. Well, that shouldn't happen, according to your theory. TV ratings should track with attendance, according to your theory, but they don't. If you are such a big believer in "agree to disagree," then why aren't you doing it? [/QUOTE]
