I'm pretty sure the U is showing 4 games today but not LSU.

I think its Bama then Ole Miss then Texas then Oregon State.

ESPN sent their big studio analyst, an LSU legend no less, to Houston to cover the Texas games, most of which have been on U. Then they sent a shite crew nobody's heard of to Baton Rouge and none of the games have been over the air on cable television.

That is not a calculated effort to build up online demand. That's a slap in the face, a total sign of disrespect. ESPN loves Texas.

Yeah, I know, ESPN hates LSU...

ESPN invested a shite ton in Texas and the Longhorn Network.

That's what I said was the primary reason they're on TV and we're not, and you've been saying it's because they know the LSU fanbase will build up demand for their online product.

If ESPN has an opportunity to pimp Texas, they're always going to trump us. A big online demand is just an accidental side effect.

Most Texas fans truly don't give a shite about baseball anymore, and aTm fans probably don't even realize that their baseball team is still alive.

that is BS. I mean ok if you want to have the game on ESPN3.com FINE. but make it EASIER for folks to access it. My cable provider is an "affiliated network" but when I log in, OOPS! ESPN doesn't recognize it as an "affiliated network" Also - ESPN3.com needs to be Smart TV friendly - can't use the tv web browser because it doesn't support Flash. Then Samsung doesn't have the Watch ESPN App, so you're still screwed...

Well the good news is, if we win tonight and Texas comes to the Box for the super, we will be able to see the games on TV
