It's a crappy deal for FBS, but it's better than what the MVC has.
The MAC deal is almost identical to the MVC deal in coverage. That being ESPN+ or bust. They still rarely get nationall televised games. The MVC deal has the leg up as games are on OTA broadcasting.
I'm just going to assume you aren't familiar with how conferences negotiate media rights, but the MVC deal is not in any way, shape or form a "leg up" on what the MAC has and the coverage is not "almost identical." If it were, the MVC would be distributing a couple million to each school from television revenues.
