I agree. However, it's not a doomsday scenario if the price tag is $30 million +. Big 12 guys have been claiming
$20 million to $24 million as the ceiling. That doesn't seem to be the case at all.
Streaming only is not good though. I wonder if ESPN or CBS pick up the rights for the tier 1 game each week so P12 has a presence on standard TV.
As a fan, the P12 network is cable only. Not every market has that. So streaming is superior, IMO, for the 2nd and 3rd tier games.
What you'd miss is the ESPN or Fox coverage of the biggest games. If it's UW vs. Oregon, they'll get the fans to stream it. But will they get interest from national markets the way Fox and ESPN can?
I'm not so sure. I'd sell the tier 1 to a main stream network...but I'm betting AMZN is only interested in paying a premium for tier 1 content.

The article basically confirms the PAC expansion strategy is to invite teams, give them a small share of revenue,

It absolutely is. Amazon knows it is overpaying and everyone else knows the PAC will not attract any eyeballs.

Nah...missing the CFP is 100% due to parity when the top teams were upset. Oregon, USC and Utah have all bumped

Everyone wants to see USC return to greatness, that had little to nothing to do with Utah. Sorry, as great as your

Weird...because I bet most those watching weren't USC or Utah fans rather those who wanted to see Utah win
