the B1G needs Nebraska to become more than a 9-10 win team in the next couple of years. Michigan looks to be on a continued path of underperforming, MSU doesn't have the draw, Wisconsin the brand (yet), and PSU is going to be still endurring/recovering from sanctions in 2015/2016. Those two seasons will be very important to the network negotiations, and if the B1G looks like it has the last couple of years it could cost the league A LOT of money. I'm sure the numbers will be high regardless, but the next 10 years is going to be impacted greatly by the next few.
