The Michigan Daily Big Ten, Pac Ten reach deal with CBS NEW YORK (AP) - In the first network agreement since the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated the NCAA's college football television contract, CBS announced yesterday that it has agreed to televise a minimum of 10 college football games this fall involving teams from the Big Ten and Pacific Ten Con- ferences. But negotiations continued for the larger slice of the college football pie, whose television rights are held by the 63-member College Football Association. CBS, WHICH with ABC continued to negotiate with the CFA, said it had reached agreement with the two conferences to televise a total of 14 games on which would be shown to a divided nation. The network said the agreement does not affect the two games it has already committed to - Boston College-Miami and Army- Navy. CBS did not announce its schedule, and said the schools were still negotiating over the sticky issue of "crossover games" - games that might involve a Big Ten or Pac-10 team against a member of the CFA. Sources said the network paid $8 million for the rights, far less than the $34.5 million that CBS and ABC had agreed to pay the NCAA under the old contract that was thrown out when the Supreme Court upheld earlier this month a lower court ruling declaring that the NCAA's ex- clusive hold on bargaining rights violated antitrust laws. NEAL PILSON, the president of CBS sports, said that in the new lais- sez-faire climate, which allows schools and conferences to make deals independent of any central authority, the network was not prepared to make the commit- tment it had under the old contract with the NCAA. He said CBS had rejected a CFA plan that called for televising between 55-60 games on a regional basis on Saturday after- noons. "The Network's role in the new marketplace is broadcasting a minimum number of games of national importance." ABC was taking the same positon. A network source, who declined to be indentified, said whatever fee would be paid for the rights would also be far less than that $34 million figure. "We lost money last year," the sourced said. "We've made it quite clear that we will not lose money this year." One reason the networks are reluctant to spend as much as in the past is the loss of their exclusivity,' which allows a full Saturday of college football and allows local telecasts that might be more attrac- tive than the games the networks are showing. .
