OT: Amazon Shows Interest in Broadcasting CFB Complicating Realignment Potentially

...Jeff Bezos went to Princeton so hopefully he doesn't get their NIL going or the SEC is doomed.

That's some title gore if I've ever seen title gore

Is Sankey gonna renegotiate that awful deal he jumped the gun on? Why would he prostitute us out for so cheap to Disney?

It won't affect the SEC, which is why we aren't listed in that teaser. Amazon would have to pony up a big chunk just to get each team to do one game on Amazon prime, and they'd be bidding against ESPN to do it. Who's about to pay up a huge chunk once negotiations with Texas and Oklahoma onboarded commence. This seems like something that would work for the new Big 12, but I don't see why the SEC would opt out of one game (and probably won't be contractually able to) just to be on Amazon.

Amazon has no intentions of stopping with NFL Thursday Night.
