Big Ten’s mega-deal, sports wagering and favorite bets + a preseason Top 25: podcast
College football news never seems to end. The season is fast approaching, but this week the Big Ten made a major announcement about its future television contracts.
The deal, worth up to $8 billion, is the richest in college sports history and has ramifications throughout the college sports world.
On today’s episode of The Star’s SportsBeat KC podcast, beat writer Kellis Robinett discusses the news and what it could mean for the Big 12 with host Blair Kerkhoff. Also making headlines this week: legal sports wagering has a launch day in Kansas — what that means for the local teams and schools; how we came about our preseason Top 25 votes; and a take on running back Dylan Edwards, a Kansas State commitment who flipped to Notre Dame earlier this month.
