Has anyone received their UF-Texas football tickets

Sorry if this was mentioned elsewhere, but we actually went under center, power I lead blocker. Can anyone confirm?

Texas and Oklahoma could be stuck in the Big 12 until 2025​

The SEC’s TV contract expires with CBS at the end of the 2023 year, which is worth $55 million a year. Afterward, the SEC will begin its new contract with ESPN, valued at roughly $300 million per year.
This is like NIL & Recruiting but played by the Corporate big Boys !

With that much money on the table, it is a head-scratcher as to why both teams have not made the jump to the SEC. But that answer is simple; neither team wants to pay the Big 12 more than they have to.
A report from last year put both teams’ buyout numbers close to $76 million a piece.

“What I’ve always been told is Texas and Oklahoma don’t want to pay a dollar more than they have to leave the Big 12, and they’re prepared to stick with the 2025 exit if that’s what it takes. And certainly, the Big 12 has no incentive to kick them out early.

Those two programs generate 50 percent of the revenue in their TV contract.
So I’m working under the assumption right now that there’s going to be a two-year period where the Big 12 will be a 14-team league.”

What would a 14 team Big 12 TV contract be worth ?
Will CBS, after losing the SEC, spend SERIOUS money to get the Big 12 ?

BIG 12 members -
Texas Tech, TCU, Baylor, Oklahoma State, Iowa State, Kansas State, Kansas and West Virginia.

Keep Oklahoma & Texas;

Add BYU, Houston, UCF and Cincinnati (all supposedly set to join Big 12 on July 1, 2023) & you would have an interesting situation !

IMO, Oklahoma and Texas would still be the big guns ! To keep them, would the Big 12 authorize an unequal payout to them ?

Half a loaf is better than none !

If you are a Big 12 member, would you give 10% of your expanded TV revenues to Oklahoma & Texas to get a MUCH BIGGER piece of the TV pie ?

CBS pays $200 MM to Big 12, Oklahoma & Texas split $20 MM, lowering split TV payout to $180 MM - TV payout per team drops from $14.28 MM to $12.85 MM for all 14 schools, Oklahoma & Texas actually get $22.85 MM.

How much are the Big 12 teams getting now ?

FWIW - SEC currently has 14 members; add Oklahoma & Texas & you have 16.

$300MM split 16 ways is $18.75 MM; if the other Big 12 schools give up the 10%, then with $22.85 MM Oklahoma & Texas are $4MM richer by staying in Big 12 rather than going to the SEC.

PLUS, winning a conference title in the Big 12 & going to CFP MUCH easier than winning the SEC !

Even with the addition of the new schools, will the Big 12 still have enough impact (& enough TV $$$s) & stay together without Oklahoma & Texas ?

It seems like the 2025 moving date it’s set in stone. However, a lot can change between now and then that could entice either or both teams to make that jump sooner rather than later or NOT AT ALL.

College football conference realignment is in the air, with Houston, Cincinnati, and UCF planning to leave the AAC & BYU leaving the West Coast Conference for the Big 12 in time for the 2023 academic year, according to a report from CBS Sports.

How will UCF as a Power 5 Conference member impact their in-state recruiting; how will it impact UF's recruiting ?

Found this somewhat dated AP article which talks about SEC revenue distribution; hard to get precise numbers.

The Southeastern Conference schools each received more than $44.6 million in total revenue distributed by the league, a seven-figure increase from the previous fiscal year.

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey said Thursday the league handed out just over $651.0 million of total revenue among the 14 members for the 2018-19 fiscal year, which ended August 31, 2019.

It includes $624.2 million distributed from the conference office, as well as $26.8 million schools kept to offset travel and other related bowl expenses

The total distributed comes from television agreements, postseason bowl games and the College Football Playoff and the SEC football championship game, as well as the league’s men’s basketball tournament, the NCAA Championships and a supplemental surplus distribution.

The true freshman scored five rushing touchdowns, tying the program record set by Tim Tebow (2007) and Trey Burton (2010).



GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Florida Gators running back Jadan Baugh has been named the SEC Freshman of the week, the conference announced Monday. The recognition follows his historic performance against Kentucky, in which he scored five rushing touchdowns, tying a program record set by Tim Tebow (2007, vs. South Carolina) and Trey Burton (2010, vs. Kentucky).



Baugh, making his first career start, ran for 106 yards on 22 carries. He became this first true-freshman running back for the Gators with multiple rushing TDs in a game since Malik Davis on Sept. 30, 2017 vs. Vanderbilt (two).



He is the first Gator to earn a SEC Freshman of the week honor since Arlis Boardingham earned the nod last season after Florida’s contest with Vanderbilt on October 7, 2023.



How it happened

The Atlanta, Ga. native’s first career start began making history at the first snap, as he and fellow freshman DJ Lagway manned the backfield for the Gators, the first true-freshman QB/RB duo to start for Florida in school history, and the first such duo in FBS this season.



After a first quarter featuring 7 carries for 33 yards, Baugh and Florida’s offense found it’s rythym in the second quarter. After a 50-yard connection from Lagway to Elijhah Badger on Florida’s second drive of the quarter landed the Florida offense in the red zone, Baugh broke the plane on a seven-yard carry for his first career touchdown to give Florida the lead.



Baugh’s next carry came standing in his own end zone, after Florida’s defense manufactured a turnover on downs at the Florida two-yard line. He unpinned the Gator offense, breaking through for 27 yards, his longest run of the night. After another downfield shot to Badger, Baugh found the paint again for his second score on a ten-yard run.



Just 24 seconds later, after a 52-yard interception return by Devin Moore, Baugh punched in his third score of the quarter on a one-yard rush.



Baugh pushed through for a 1-yard score in each of the next two quarters, finishing his historic night with 30 points in the Gators’ 48-20 rout of the Wildcats.

"The dumpster fire in Norman continues to boil as Venables has fired his buddy Seth Littrell. Joe Jon Finley to take over play calling, lol!!!."

He's still so athletic. He was a terror yesterday for my Skins. Pick 6 and multiple tackles behind the LOS including a sack and another stop on 4th and 1.

Is PRECISELY why I hope so much we don't have to see this clown on our sidelines next year. Lagway is carrying yet he turtles up with kentucky getting football sexond half. We may win because our kids are just more talented but this guy will NEVER win here, his dna is too conservative for ours, and he's just a flat out bad coach and a bad fit . Please go back to the sunbelt

In regards to Lagway...

"Wrong. He hits a few chunk plays a game to keep his per pass average up, but isn’t consistent enough to maintain drives. The stats reflect that. It’s not debatable. Will he get better? Probably. But he’s not a good QB right now.

"Do I think he will be good? Yes. But he really hasn’t been very good outside of his appearances vs scrubs. He hits chunk plays but the consistency is lacking, which is a problem for moving the ball. Inexperience mostly."

It’s no different than people thinking Luke was better than Glenn last night because of 2 (almost) chunk plays. He was less than mid outside of that."

In regards to Napier...

"Mike might get fired before Billy lol." LOLOL

"He's not a better coach or playcaller. Please don't hurt yourself." Keep in mind we had one player, in one game score half of FSU's Touchdowns all year with 2 True freshman starting in the backfield against a top-10 defense.

Singleton was of course at UF over the weekend. He has since decommitted from Rutgers and this is beginning to look like a two-team race between the Gators and Syracuse.

"UF is a top contender," Singleton told Rivals. "It was awesome. I loved the atmosphere of the game, and the coaches were giving off great energy!"

Big DB has a 10.5 100m dash time to his name.

I must have missed this, BUT DAYUM!!!

To the people who predicted us to lose in the prediction thread.....time to eat
