Very little news on Tuesday, except that the Pac-12 mentioned on Monday that their overall TV package may not be as much in terms of overall dollars as either the SEC or the Big Ten. The possibly of moving most of their basketball games to Amazon might be gaining some steam. ESPN however still wants to do their popular "Pac-12 After Dark" series, especially during football season, which I totally get.
This news is according to John Ourand of the Sports Business Journal website.
Remember that several conferences will have hundreds of new games to look forward to, starting with Loyola (Chicago) playing in the Atlantic 10. The school that replaced the Ramblers in the Missouri Valley is the University of Illinois-Chicago aka simply UIC. The Flames join longtime Ohio Valley foes in Murray State and Belmont in what promises to be one crazy edition of "Arch Madness" when it happens in St. Louis from March 2-5, 2023. Please look at my Season Preview blog to see all of the conference realignments for easy reference.
I close out this short pod by wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and the best of holiday wishes for 2023.
Stay safe, everyone--especially with that really huge blizzard that will be paralyzing 28 states just in time for Christmas Eve. I hope to be back shortly after the New Year's holiday weekend.
