Here is a graphic of the CFB conference media rights. Since this chart was made ESPN purchased for $330M the Tier 1 SEC contract that CBS pays $55M thru 2024 and SEC extended it thru 2034
Conference Media deals: when do they expire?
C-USA, Sun Belt, MAC and the Ivy League have all recently signed contracts and/or extensions. The ACC and SEC are signed for the long term as well. Therefore, if there is going to be more conference realignment, it may come down to the next media deals signed by these other FBS conferences...
