The Triangle Business Journal has reported that ESPN has won the broadcasting rights for ACC football. The new deal, which will solidify the conference through the 2022-2023 football season is reportedly worth about $155 million a year, more than TWICE the amount of revenue currently being brought in on the current contract the league owns.
The SEC mammoth deal was $207 million. While we were never going to see any numbers close to that, the revenue increase in this new contract is still an improvement.
