how many soccer games do you normally have aired? And is that just local Fox Sports?
Florida being good will almost certainly have 7-8 (quarters, semis, and final all broadcast). A&M being the defending champs only having 3 is kind of job imo but we don't have any locally aired now (they are all distributed via the web) so it's still a big improvement imo.
As I said earlier in the thread, I expect all our games to now be available via digital platform which is a huge improvement from a recruiting standpoint. That's something you can sell pretty easily. "Mom/Dad, you and your friends and family will be able to see every single one of your daughters games." The accessibility changes the game entirely because almost all ISPs carry ESPN3.

With the schools picking up the infrastructure tab themselves, they will become more attractive broadcast options across the ESPN/ABC platform.
I think you'll be more likely to see a random late addition SEC baseball game on ESPNU or 2 than one from another conference. Because the production costs will be lower since they're doing the game anyway for the digital network.
Basically, the SEC will be providing way more filler programming for all ESPN networks.

Last year in the regular season we had 6 on Sun and 3 on ESPNU.
