They certainly might. The PAC already has a deal with the major cable players nationwide. Once you enter a new market you get on basic cable with higher sub fees PLUS your digital tier regional channel. Even if they can't renegotiate with FOX/ESPN on their first tier deal, they will have more inventory for the National channel, which frees up inventory for the regional channels. Live television is where the advertising revenue is.
Plus, people seem to forget that the PAC Network has reserved itself the rights to some first tier matchups. That's huge.
