Three Thoughts
• Game preview/TV details and anything else you might need for today’s game – this isn’t your little brother’s Kansas team, more competitive and receiving far more support from local fans
• Pokes are now a one-point underdog going into today’s game – a five-point swing in Vegas is highly unusual
• Looking at the “Gonzaga to the Big 12” narrative – this seems to be the sweet spot in the deal: increased brand value for sponsorships.
Another consultant pointed out that the Big 12 is also aggressively looking to increase revenue from marketing and sponsorships, and that a deeper, more competitive conference could potentially make their sponsorship campaigns more lucrative. “If I can call up Pepsi or State Farm or something and say that I’m going to get 10 teams in the NCAA Tournament, have X number of draft picks, play in X number of huge games, that might make my inventory package more attractive”, one told me. 300% more attractive? No, but every single dime and quarter adds up.
