Over the past decade, I have read repeatedly that Boston is not considered an attractive TV market for college sports as Boston is a pro sports town. A main reason why the Big Ten Conference has no interest in Boston College.

According to SNL Kagan data, cable operators pay an estimated "in-market" rate of $1 per sub per month, more than double the $0.44 fees charged outside the conference's home markets. Cablevision alone serves 2.64 million video customers in New York, New Jersey and southwestern Connecticut; with the upgraded fee in place, BTN sees its annual payout from the operator rise to around $31.7 million from $13.9 million (bolding mine)
I'm no Sports Business reporter, but more than doubling your annual operator payout seems like a pretty good business outcome to me. AA also reports that BTN is able to charge ad rates comparable to what ESPN gets for the SEC Network.
Umd and Rutgers doubled the media revenue. Plus rolling teams and games through NYC area and DC/Balt with tons of Big ten alumni.
DC, NY, NJ are pro markets. Empty college stadiums make for poor television.

Ohio State and Michigan can make much more money teaming up with Georgia and Florida State to sell their TV rights and not splitting them with bottom feeders like Maryland leaves more money for the teams drawing the viewers
This is absolutely incorrect.
The CFP generates huge amounts of money for conferences which then divide the proceeds up among its conference member teams.
Powerful football schools need conference opponents.
The previous poster (quoted above) is 100% wrong. Highly likely that Notre Dame will be joining the Big Ten Conference within the next 3 years.

That's true if you rely on cable subscribers being forced to pay for networks they don't want. By the time the rights deal expires, streaming will matter far more and Amazon/Netflix/Apple are going to care about which teams get eyeballs
Yes you are right. They will be moving nfl teams out of nyc, dc, Chicago, LA and Philly.
Those NFL teams get ratings. The same isn't true of Northwestern, or any team in Philly or NYC. USC will be fine

Cuz of “streaming” lolololz. The B1G and NFL dictate to streaming, cable and network. They let the majority get a piece and then leave a couple out for musical chairs max income
