ESPN's love affair with the SEC is strong

The results were staggering. Not only did the SEC get the majority of the airtime (totaling more airtime than every other conference combined), they gave the SEC nearly 4 times more airtime than the second-most aired conference, the Big Ten. The ACC received 43 seconds of total airtime, and it was limited to George Whitfield commenting about Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston. Here were the totals: SEC – 1:02:08 Big Ten – 15:59 Big 12 – 15:19 PAC12 – 10:57 DIV III – 5:00 Ivy League – 1:08 ACC – 0:43

Have you looked at the Top 10? The best college football in the nation is played in the SEC. That's where the coverage goes.

So they discussed the top ranked teams more than the shite teams? Bizarre

FSU had already played so were they supposed to talk about Duke?

Also breaking news, Patriots and Broncos are getting talked about more than the Jaguars.

OP is a communist who wants coverage distributed equally, regardless of merit.

No I just want ESPN to acknowledge that the other 4 power conferences do exist (okay maybe not the Big 10 cause they suck)

Jameis Winston is the SEC's Kryptonite.

I wonder what the air time per top 25 program is.

Honestly, if ESPN was really biased they'd have had Gameday at Ole Miss last week and LSU this week.

A "Why is Florida so shitty" feature got as much airtime as the Big 10 and more than the ACC.
Read the article next time.
I promise you that Steve Spurrier's shitbag team will get more airtime than the ACC this week too.

you guys all realize that ESPN owns the SEC network right?
if thats not a vested interest, than I don't know what it is
lets not act like they are propping up a shitty conference either

Remember when everybody complained that ESPN never gives the SEC respect and they love the PAC 12 and USC and Oregon?

Bama would have picked him off 3 times in the Championship game and won it. Auburn was a damn fluke.

I'm sure the roles will be reversed during basketball season.
