****The Official NEW (new)^3 conference realignment & shit talk thread**** (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=285386)

Ohio State hated in Kansas? For what reason? That one makes zero sense at all. Why would Georgia hate Ohio State, Colorado hate Alabama, or the state of Alabama hate Ole Miss (when 100% of the folks in that state would choose one of the two in-state options)?

We might be the most hated football team in Mighty Mo, but we're also the most popular basketball team. So there's that.

This is a cool installation at Mississippi State.

Even Texas hates their overlord!

Could you imagine one of your greatest players ever going to prison for 30 years? Ouch...

Of course, Mighty Mo secretly loves Texas football. It was the state's most popular preseason top-25 team a few years ago:

I guess those jerseys weren't just out of stock

Hah, Miami is definitely the most hated team here. That much is true.

Larry Scott launches shots at DirecTV

Larry Scott

DirecTV became the last major hurdle for the SEC Network to clear before it launches next week, and the powers that be at the negotiating table managed to get a deal done with some time to spare. Standing on the sideline wondering where the same will to negotiate can be found is Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott. The visionary in charge of expanding the Pac-12 brand has done some great things with the conference since he took over in the position, but a deal with DirecTV continues to elude him and the Pac-12 Network. Ater witnessing the deal come together between DirecTV and the SEC Network, Scott seems to be a bit agitated.

“We’ve been disappointed that DirecTV has been willing to negotiate with ESPN for the SEC Network but not Pac-12,” Scott said in a story by the Los Angeles Times. “It is certainly not consistent with them saying they care about what the consumer wants.”

But wait, there’s more!

“It appears this is an example of DirecTV being willing only to deal with big conglomerates who have muscle and leverage beyond the interest of consumers,” Scott said.

The SEC Network was set up in partnership with ESPN and the Disney Company that owns ESPN. The Pac-12 Network lacks that kind of support and power of course, giving the SEC Network a more likely chance to build up a potential audience reach before launching, unlike with the Pac-12 Network or even the Big Ten Network. The SEC Network is scheduled to launch with an estimated potential customer reach over 90 million.

LMAO

I dunno Larry, it seems like people want to watch the SEC more than the PAC-12 for some reason.

I openly admit that living in neither territory I would rather watch SEC games than Pac-12 games.

Any Pac-12 game of significance is already on broadcast television. This is mostly true for the SEC as well.

The SEC forcing people's hand with interesting games like South Carolina - A&M was a good move.

This is what happens to flagships. Some would not know. Also, dawn the SEC puts clownshoes on the pilgrim birds yet again...oh wait they already have those.
