SEC Reportedly Looking To Start TV Network
NEW YORK (CBS SPORTS) - Want to know why a conference that is already the most powerful college football conference in the country adds two new schools it doesn't necessarily need?

As you'd expect, given the television deals that have gone to the Pac-12 and the Big 12 in the last year, the SEC will be looking for more money from both ESPN and CBS for the right to broadcast games, though that's not the end goal here.
According to Sports Business Daily, the SEC is once again looking into the idea of starting its own SEC Network, much like the Big Ten is currently operating.
