The Big Ten's media rights deal has continuously stood at the center of the college football offseason for months, and Thursday the conference finally reached a deal with three television networks to broadcast the league's games for seven years. The Big Ten's games will head to Fox, CBS and NBC through 2029, and Nate Dickinson breaks down the terms of the agreement and the implications for the future on Locked On Big 10.

The Big Ten has an opportunity to become the most powerful conference in college sports with this deal, and the money it will get over every other conference in the country allows it a window of opportunity to become the best on and off the field. Of course, that all depends on how the Big Ten decides to use its money in the coming years. Can the Big Ten take this newfound cash and turn it into the best college football teams in the country? The Big Ten has the most money, but it still lacks behind the SEC as far as actually winning on the football field. With what the Big Ten has done this offseason, Nate believes it can take over if it plays its cards right in the next few seasons. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network.
