Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 4732102, member: 1559"] You do realize that the 2.48 million WF/FSU viewers was the 4th lowest out of 13 games in the Saturday 3:30 PM time slot on ABC? But, it's not FSU's fault. In my opinion, the ACC is killing FSU football due to the low interest opponents (lower ticket sales) and lower than SEC revenues. Overall FSU would be more valuable in the SEC as the conference payout is higher and ticket sales would increase and they would be additive to the conference, but moving FSU to the SEC would severely damage the media value of the ACC conference. One final point. There are 2 large states that really matter when it comes to football, Florida and Texas. The SEC has Texas locked up with Texas and Texas A&M as well as Oklahoma. The Big 12 has the 2nd tier Texas schools locked up. In Florida, there is no dominant conference. Grabbing Florida and FSU would make the SEC the clear leader in Florida. LT, the SEC will grab FSU.
