SEC Network’s Peter Burns: Big Ten runs a ‘highly succesful CFB Ponzi scheme’

"They understand over half of their league is hot garbage and only prop up the small amount of true quality contenders they have."

"Did I just read something that the SEC is breaking away from the NCAA and becoming their own entity?"

"It's a safety net, and it's unneeded, it's unwarranted, and it's greedy."

As they attempt to bend the CFP to their liking, the Big Ten and SEC are getting called out by a congressman for possible collusion.

"I don't need lectures from others about 'good of the game.'"

A decision is expected to come "in the next few months" on a potential CFP expansion.

"...sources said the additional money would likely be in the range of $50-80 million annually on top of the current deal."

The ACC, Big Ten and SEC softball tournaments get going in earnest today on their respective networks.

"I tried to call balls and strikes and stay in the middle."

The conference will earn rougly $70 million from its tournament success.

"Jim Phillips is nowhere to be found while the ACC fights for a fourth spot."

"Now, there's going to be a big caveat in that, the Big 12 and ACC are going to be pissed."

"There’s something inherently wrong about stacking the deck before the season."

"Correction: Tennessee is not canceling this series. Nebraska did."

"I feel like we’re not living up to the expectations just being at .500 as a conference"

"Tongue in cheek 82-82 record was to illustrate any night either team can win and one will"

"Since January 4, into Tuesday, the SEC teams are 82-82...there’s no dominant group of teams."

"The SEC has been officiated as football this year. … And that’s not going to be the same whistle they get in the NCAA Tournament."

"There's no way you can say it doesn't."

"In real time, right now, the Big Ten has passed the SEC for 2023 and 2024."

"I'm not sure what we're gonna do down here in SEC country but hang our heads."

"We're not going to flip the games."

"It just means more at Navy."
