The CaneReports continues its series on the next wave of realignment. Make no mistake, the next wave is coming.
This series is focused on potential scenarios for Miami and the ACC. Today, we will present four intriguing scenarios. We are sharing four scenarios put forth by the College Football Express (CFX). and The College Football Mafia.
The show host, Rock (aka RockandRant), and special guest Professor WildUte asked some tough questions,
“What if the college football conference realignment expansion door slams shut ahead of 2030?"
"If the Power 2 are full, how do the ACC’s biggest brands bridge the massive $50M+ revenue gap?”
Everyone assumes the Big Ten and the SEC are coming for Miami, FSU and Clemson. But what if they don’t? Professor Wild Ute of the College Football Mafia analyzes doomsday scenarios for the ACC's Big Three, Miami, Florida State and Clemson. The options are more interesting and realistic than you might think.
The Professor explored four thought provoking scenarios based on the TV Brand Index, an accepted statistical value model. His analysis explores scenarios like a full ACC/Big 12 merger and the implications for the future of college football. His analysis also examines the impact on TV ratings and overall conference power.
Scenario A: ACC/Big 12 Merger
Thirty-three schools merge into a super conference
Scenario B: ACC 10
The top 10 ACC football schools breakaway in football only like Notre Dame.
Scenario C: Best of ACC & Big 12
The top sixteen football schools in the ACC and Big 12 (eight from each conference)
Scenario D: ACC 8
ACC tier system with the top eight football brands.
BOTTOM LINE:
As long as Miami continues to draw big viewership, Miami will be in a very good position in all realignment negotiations.
GO CANES!
