Yes, definitely. (of course depending on the broadcast networks)... If they put tOSU/Mich primetime on ABC and our matchup on ESPN, then that is a deck stacked by the networks, and not necessarily by actual interest.
If both were on a major broadcast network, then yes. Let's see, does the B1G have a deal with FOX starting next year, and SEC/B12 with ABC?
So yeah, with a comparable network slot, I say yes, definitely.
(wink, wink, I'm surprised you did not say OSU/Utah, two of the preseason conference favorites with better "national presence").
The national media storyline would be irresistible, B12 supplanting the blue-blood conferences, and supremacy / heir apparent of the new B12.
