Does espn hate our Tigers?

The highlight reel hates LSU

I remember a few years ago people used to say LSU, USC and Oklahoma were the media darlings. Now all I see is Crimson Tide documentaries and commercials with Saban eating Little Debbies picked up off the floor. To the winner go the spoils. LSU just needs to keep on winning and we will be back in the news. Hell, I live out of state and all their games are always on TV so that says something there. I did see a new commercial though on ESPN yesterday and in the background you could hear something about somebody is going to sign with LSU during the commercial.

the teams that put up big offensive numbers are the teams that they want to follow. we play small-ball but we win games.

Once upon a time, LSU would show up for the big games. We got plenty of love, remember JaMarcus arm? Big Herm's birthweight? Jacob Hester listening to Elvis? Matt Mauck's gonna be a dentist? We heard that ad nauseum on espn/cbs/fox when we were beating the big boys on the field.

Also, no one in the media has confidence that Les will turn it around. So to them, there is no point in discussing the tigers.

If we get to 6-0, we will enter the conversation

I see what you are talking about. Don't really care about media hype but the highlight reel is getting ro be a joke. Some highlights on there are not from televised games and don't look that special, they have plenty by FCS schools, and the first reel where they showed 99.999% offensive plays, the only defensive play was Shep getting knock tha fug out.

Then on another one where the last highlight is the longest one it shows him getting knocked out again and rolling on the ground. I start laughing because it is getting pretty comical that they keep putting it in. Better see that Reid hit or the many big hits Widowmaker Baker laid on saturday.

And for people who say we don't have any highlights to show what about the 2 or 3 big arse sacks which caused fumbles, one of PP7 30+yard returns or hell his 87 yard TD return. What about a 51yard Shep TD run, 51yard Randle TD catch, 30yard Shep TD run, or a 65yard Ridley TD run.

And for the guy that said the PP7 returns were not special, did both of Miami's returns need to be shown. I mean they were showing 2yard TD catches an 5yard TD runs for crying out loud. I see what the OP is saying but hey, it is what it is right?

I'm going to ESPN site and gonna find out whats going on. I've noticed it to. I'll get back with ya.

Please tell me if I'm the only one that notices this or it's that obvious how bias they are against us...

it's pretty obvious that little nicky has become the flavor of the month at espn. we were pretty popular after we punched ohiost in the mouth but the heads at espn/abc would have loved for it to have ended differently. Les calling out Herbie, and by proxy, espn probably left some lingering animosity and they see the blood in the water and they will probably do whatever they can to stir it up. so it geauxs.

espn is great for game coverage and they have served LSU well...but do yourself a favor and skip the drivel and hype.
