SI puts a "value" on the P5 schools

[NorthCyd]

ISU is top 30. I like it. This ranking has my approval.

 

[BMWallace]

There was no Directors Cup in 19-20, so it was probably easier to take 1 year instead of taking a 5-year stretch with a hole in the middle.

They already left out 2020 for attendance and viewership, why no do if for the Director's Cup too?

 

[DrClone]

11 spots higher than Iowa and we've managed to lose 6 straight?

Spoken like a hawk troll.. Those 6 games are all that matters

No, I'm sick of blowing games we should win vs. Iowa then having to hear about it for the next 12 months.

Thank you. Stanford and Northwestern seemed way too high.

 

[Marcelason78]

Not a bad ranking, Wisconsin seems a tad high.

 

[alarson]

Agree, but we've only contended once.

In the actual game, yes. We've been 'in the race' fairly deep in the season more than that though, and certainly closer to it over most of the last 5 years than most years prior to that.

 

[Zyklon]

How tf is Iowa number 21?? What a bull**** list.

edit: Just saw we're 27. Seems like a really good list actually.

 

[cyclones500]

I'll take a loss every year against Iowa if it means we're contending for big 12 championships.

Obligatory:

 

[Gunnerclone]

The exercise is an interesting way to try an put value to the school's ADs.

"The average school ranking for each Power 5 conference, using future membership: SEC 25.1, Big Ten 25.8, ACC 39.6, Pac-12 41.4, Big 12 49.3." The Big12 in last but it'd be interesting to see that after a few years of the new 4 getting more intriguing matchups and better TV accessibility. As UCF, Cincy and Houston were all near the bottom.

K State dragging us way down.

 

[JP4CY]

K State dragging us way down.

I think that's Stevie Nicks chorus in a Tom Petty song.

 

[Gunnerclone]

I think that's Stevie Nicks chorus in a Tom Petty song.

They automatically get -10 points for “EMAW” or whatever the **** that weird **** is.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

So we're top 30 for value as a brand but nobody wants us in the SEC or the B1G? Just goes to show you this really isn't 100% about the money, it's more about the prestige.

 

[NWICY]

I'll take that over the opposite though.

I'll take a loss every year against Iowa if it means we're contending for big 12 championships.

Agree, if we weren't playing relevant conference football we would be in way worse shape on the realignment carousal than we are. ( I think we are in a ok place, not great but there are a lot of schools in a more precarious position than us)

 

[Gunnerclone]

We don’t know that.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

We don’t know that.

Don't we?

 

[Gunnerclone]

Don't we?

Has any individual or entity that is actually part of the realignment process (ie network and conference big brass NOT the ******* media) stated anything publicly?

 

[WalkingCY]

Agree. What a stupid "saying." K-State is just awful.

 

[alarson]

I mean, it is though.

The big 10 still generates most of its revenue based on markets\cable subscriptions. Our brand value isn't high enough to account for the fact that we don't give the big 10 a new market if we join.

If Iowa didn't exist, we would've been in the big 10 by now.

I understand what you're saying but come on man.
