There were huge headlines a couple days ago about the SEC payout of $32M per team. It was credited to the impact of the SEC Network. Note in the fine print of this article it is roughly equivalent to the old-line B1G teams. The B1G keeps its finances quiet. I also found Perlman's comments interesting. He is taking a broad view and realizes the market Rutgers and Maryland (move to basic cable in metro NYC/Washington markets, for example) add to the B1G will soon benefit Nebraska.
