That's really obnoxious. And blatant.

Go Gophers!!
 

Love this response. Looks like this was maybe a gameday?

So stupid. ESPN has no shame either, it doesn't get anymore obvious than this.
 

That's why I'm really hoping the SEC gets shut out of the BCS playoffs. That could semi-realistically happen, particularly if Clemson is able to keep it up (which I see no reason why they couldn't. Excellent, excellent football team), but obviously the powers that be would fight tooth and nail to prevent that from ever happening.

I can give you one...they're Clemson
 

Why would anyone be surprised at this? ESPN is an over-rated and tired bit. They have obviously run out of a lot of ideas.
 



That almost seems like a troll to me
 

They're just pissed that the top 5 are FOX properties (FOX does own 49% of BTN).

I hate ESPN. I hate Gameday and how people give a crap about Gameday and where it is held. We are damn lucky the Big Ten Network exists, and yet some whine about games that are not on ESPN/ABC, and find reasons to complain about FOX and FS1 broadcasts. Why? Because they are brainwashed to worship ESPN, the home to Boomer, Joey Galloway, Beth Mowins, Andre Ware, Ed Cunningham and several other hacks. Oh did I mention Jesse Palmer is really awful. Rece Davis, Fowler, that other hack QB from Florida State, they all can go away for good.

I hate the way ESPN pretends any game that is not on ESPN, 2, U or ABC does not exist (unless it is an SEC team). They pretty much ignore any Big Ten game that is not on ESPN properties as much as they can, but then turn around an talk non-stop about the SEC teams, even if they are on CBS. During one halftime show of a gopher game, they spent the whole halftime show, other than 30 seconds on the Gopher game, talking about, yes, the SEC.

ESPN just sucks, almost as much as Jesse Palmer and that yammering idiot, Ed Cunningham.
 







Which conference has bigger SEC hate?

Big Ten or ACC?

I would think the ACC because of the rivalries

Florida-FSU
Georgia-GT
S. Carolina-Clemson
 

It is hard to find balanced college football coverage on TV. The SEC/ESPN love affair is well documented. I used to enjoy BTN back in the Rotel days but since it became the Ohio State Network, I have reduced my viewing down to pretty much just the actual broadcast of games.

And by the way... chicken or the egg... the more BTN has reduced itself to OSU coverage (the sappy OSU recruiting tool "Scarlet and Gray Days" was beyond over-the-top), the more people like me quit watching BTN. The more people like me quit watching BTN, the higher percentage of OSU fans among its viewership. The higher percentage of OSU fans, the less content NOT dedicated to OSU. On and on it goes.

Perhaps it is time for Aggievision to take center stage.
