Does espn hate our Tigers?

Forgive me if this has been talked about but I DVR college football live everyday and when they show highlights or any kinda compilation LSU is never shown and if they are shown it's something bad like us getting sacked or jj throwing int when everyone else they show is scoring touchdowns or really good plays!! It's really starting to piss me off because even before the season started they would show only negative things for LSU!! Please tell me if I'm the only one that notices this or it's that obvious how bias they are against us... Again sorry if this was already discussed.

What do you want them to show?

Well they show every other team I would just like to see LSU represented a little!! It's not like we are a small no body school!! And when they do show us I would rather it be a real highlight and not another teams highlight against us!!!

What's highlight worthy?

Anything Nevis has done.. Ridley's 65 yard TD, PP's punt return for a TD.

i'm with you on this. the Tigers are noticeable absent from every highlight reel I've seen this season. the only thing I saw so far was Shepard getting nailed by a UNC defender.
I've seen Arkansas, Ga Tech, Iowa, Auburn, FSU, etc.. all teams equal to or less than the Tigers so far in 2010.

I asked a simple question why do they always have some smartass wannabe fans answer all retarded? Let's see what worthy of highlight, all of RS touchdowns. PP'S returns, Ridleys 65 yarder the definesive line sacks Eric reids hit should I go on a-hole!!

Thanks for having some people on here that see what I see it's amazing how they do not like LSU

pretty sure PP7 set a school record for kick/punt return yards.. RS has busted some big runs already.. defense had 6 sacks vs. Vandy.
do you think those are less highlight worthy than Cam Newton throwing a 20-yard TD pass against Arkansas State?

I agree that ESPN hates LSU. I didn't know that was up for argument. All of the press hates LSU, Les Miles, and all things purple and gold. They compliment our tailgating and our food. That's about it. Our food is pretty BA though, I'm not gonna lie. We're in a position to be 5-0 heading into Florida with probably very little national exposure until that game. Could be a good thing.

I actually like LSU, I'm just sick of all the whining over why we're "getting no love." Who cares? Eric Reid's hit was one of the top 10 hits on Sports Illustrated. PP's returns were good, but nothing that anyone else hasn't done this season. But once again, who cares? I'm more concerned as to whether our offense gets fixed than some stupid highlight reel.

it's always been this way and always will be. the media was cool with LSU for a little while when Bama was down but now that they're winning again (and combined with Florida's continued success) it's back in the media's best interest to keep them on top. more coverage + not covering their rivals = more winning for Bama and Florida & more $$$$$$$$$$$ for the networks that depend on the ratings that the traditional big boys bring in.
just wait until Michigan and Notre Dame get all the way back. ESPN pushes it every year (UM, ND, FSU, Nebraska, etc..) they need these programs to return to greatest so they can make a frick load of money.

I'm just a passionate fan who would like to see some love when I watch espn!!! It's getting towhere I'm not even interested in watching because LSU is never talked about at all!! I'm not saying we need to be talked about all the time but we are a top 25 team whether some of you negtigers believe it or not!!!

If you want highlights, then check youtube. You can pick which ones you want, whenever you want, as often as you want. No one outside of Louisiana cares about LSU, so why should the media cater to such a small media market?
Posted on 9/14/10 at 2:14 am to OFWHAP
And Alabama has that much more of a huge media market then LSU . or auburn or Virginia tech give me a brake LSU has a huge fan base and media market just as much as all the above mentioned!!!

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.
