They need to add BYU and Boise State (with the requirement of changing the field), and then UCF and Houston (if the Texas schools will allow it) or Cincinnati (if they won’t). It’s not perfect. But it has potential.

Amazon has reached out to the Big12 about picking up their media rights. But they want the Big12 to expand to 14-16 schools. They are in a position where media foot print doesn’t matter, like it did to the B1G the last round. They just want fanbases/streamers. They can make a ton of money from advertising their own products of said schools and making the sale on shirts and what not. They also want more sports fans subscribing because they are picking up Thursday night football, and now trying for Sunday Ticket. But to get to 14, I’d add BYU, Cincinnati, UCF, Houston, Memphis, and Cincinnati. The crazy part is that’s suddenly the most competitive conference. Other than Kansas, there’s a lot of good football teams. And there’s no Alabama, Clemson, Oklahoma, Ohio State to just run the table most years. It wouldn’t have the top 1-2 schools that every other conference has, but outside that top to bottom it’s better. Unfortunately to the media the top school is what makes a conference.

I’m a BYU guy, so I’d love to see them get their foot in the door. I’d love expansion by six. I’m not a fan of Memphis. But I suppose it could make regional sense. Colorado State could be good, projecting into the future. There are good things going on there. But it wouldn’t get anyone excited now.

Hopefully they get a sweet TV deal. That would be killer on travel. That was always a concern when they added WVU. Now if they added BYU, Boise State, and UCF? That would be rough to say the least. I guess at this point they need to as those are the biggest fish left.

In the grand scheme I think this is a test for Amazon, where in the next wave of media contracts they try to take on as much of college football as they can, and same with NFL.
