Oklahoma becomes the 3rd most valuable program in the conference while Kansas sits comfortably in the top half due to their blue blood basketball pedigree.
If I’m Fox, I’m pushing hard to make this a reality. I’d commit to a triple header on the flagship weekly consisting of:
Big Ten #1
Big Ten #2
PAC 12 #1
The Big Ten gets the Noon slot, and they can be flexible with the 3:30 and prime time slots, until November, when the Big Ten stops playing night games.
FS1 gets a pretty loaded line up too. I’d slot a Pac 12 game in the late night slot and with the other 3 you can take your pick of the Big Ten’s #3-4 or the PAC 12’s #2-4.
Not bad. I'd half expect the SEC to attempt to swoop Texas with Texas Tech. The PAC
may reach out to Iowa St, Kansas St, Oklahoma St, and TCU if they want to get to 16 with CTZ schools. Baylor and West Virginia may find themselves in the AAC.
