    Surprised they didn't also trot out the excuse that it's hard to track total viewership numbers due to streaming from mobile devices, etc.

    How much they pay saves us, not how many people watch. Sure, that will catch up in the end, but as long as they can rationalize viewership declines away that offers hope they might do something dumb in our favor.

    This.

    As long as it pays near B1G or SEC, we'll stay alive

    If the NFL lost that much viewership the amount Amazon will pay for the Pac 12 is likely not to be worth a bucket of warm spit and no one being able to see our DAWGS

    I have Prime myself. I like it. But football sucks on it

    The B1G and the SEC seem to be doing fine on money. Join the B1G

    NIL isnt even a direct correlation to how much the university makes from the conference. As long as the school makes enough to have shiny recruiting rooms and pay a HC then you want to prioritize viewership and availability

    Think bigger. You don’t get it. You need as much money as possible going directly to the school to pay staff salaries, supplement other sports and upgrade facilities. Then you turn to the boosters to pay players for their image and likeness. Otherwise you are one of the poors. A shitty tv deal leaves Jen with her hand out asking boosters to pay for all that stuff.

    Still sucks less than joining the B1G

    Amazon should launch a TV channel. They probably will. Need a prime membership to access it. Then what?

    PAC-12 on Amazon.

    And the nation laughs.

    If we think the rest of the country is clueless about college football out west now, just wait until this happens. Fans in the west won’t even give a shit.

    Besides the new order being an easier path to the new playoff system, I’m not seeing why UW shouldn’t do everything it can to go B1G.

    They already laugh at the Pac-12, who gives a shit?

    Take the Amazon money AND fucking win a big game for once. None of us should give a shit about viewership....Fox thinks truck racing is more important

    all the bigtime games will still be on fox or abc anyways

    bunch of midwest loser dick suckers should root for fucking Minnesota

    In early cable days Prime Sports televised all the USC and Ucla games that weren't on the networks live. It kept California kids home

    Now every game is televised and only the Pac 12 is fucking stupid enough to already have fucked up once. Let's not do twice

    USC and Ucla bailed for more than money

    This is fucking retarded and why the Pac sucks

    Stay here with your coogs and beavs

    UW should go with the real football
    I thought UW should LEAVE because they weren't going to get money.

    Now, UW could get the money, but the viewership might dip for Colorado at Oregon State...

    Looks like the goalposts are moving for the Midwest dick suckers.

    Take the money, win the games, and win a fucking big bowl game for the first time in 20 years or DIAFF

    It’s almost like viewership correlates with future tv deals and money that pours into the university.

    Take the Amazon money now, watch the ratings plummet, profit.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Yeah, and the first year in a new model (like streaming) is going to correlate to streaming numbers 10 years from now?

    So they'll pay for hope

    The Pac 12 would be filler
