With Oklahoma, Texas, Oregon, UCLA, USC and Washington set to fan out between the SEC and Big Ten next season, the supremacy of those two conferences seems assured—for better or for worse.
Soon, the two leagues may have the College Football Playoff revenue share to prove it.
A new CFP proposal would give the SEC and Big Ten an astoundingly large slice of the playoff money pie, according to a Friday morning report from Ross Dellenger of Yahoo! Sports.
Fantasy baseball can help bridge the gap until football is back and with similar settings.
The ongoing race to get the new 14-team college football playoff format has been filled with a number of small roadblocks, but revenue distribution is beginning to take shape.
Talks between committee members have continued over the last several weeks, with members meeting in Dallas, Indianapolis and virtual meetings this week. When it comes to flexing their muscles over other conferences regarding revenue distribution, the SEC and Big Ten are holding other conferences over the fire right now.
With the most active NBA/G-League players and this year’s No.
Even against a team as mighty as the Boston Celtics, with their superior length and prodigious talent, Nikola Jokić is simply too much. Play him straight up, as the Celtics did for most of Jokić’s 39 minutes on Thursday night, and he will feast. He will bulldoze Kristaps Porziņģis and float jumpers over Jrue Holiday. Send doubles, as Boston did down the stretch of a thrilling 115–109 Denver Nuggets win, and he will carve you up. Twice in the final five minutes the Celtics thought they had Jokić pinned down. Twice Jokić found the slimmest of seams to deliver passes for easy twos.
The NHL trade deadline comes at 3 pm Eastern on Friday afternoon, but one of the bigger trades came Thursday evening with the Pittsburgh Penguins shipping Jake Guentzel to the Carolina Hurricanes for several players and picks including forward Michael Bunting.
This was inevitable, with Guentzel in the last year of his deal, but Sidney Crosby — who was a longtime linemate of Guentzel’s — was clearly not happy about this move.
Crosby is known to be one of the biggest team guys in the NHL. I mean, his fixation on the number 87 has made his $8.

Fleetwood and Bay Hill Golf Club do not get along as the Englishman looked more like Kevin Costner than a pro golfer.
Tommy Fleetwood is still hunting for his first PGA Tour victory, but it won’t be coming this week. Fleetwood is not having a good time at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, to put it mildly.
During Friday’s second round, the Englishman struggled from the start. He made three bogeys in his first five holes, and it got worse from there.
His name is Travis Bazzana. You can call him “Bazz,” as his Oregon State teammates do. You can call him “The Wonder from Down Under” or the “Bazzmanian Devil,” as the sometimes fact-bending creatives on the internet do. (Actually, he is from Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, not Tasmania.) But soon you just might be calling him one of the more unconventional No. 1 picks in the history of the MLB draft.
The PGA Tour is in Bay Hill this week for the Arnold Palmer Invitational, which has been elevated to signature event status for the PGA Tour this year while offering a $20 million purse.
It’s the fourth signature event of the year on Tour, and the payout structure varies a bit from other similar events, with a $4 million first-place prize instead of $3.6 million. Kurt Kitayama is this week’s defending champion, while Scottie Scheffler, Viktor Hovland, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas are among the headliners.
