Whenever I tune in, there's a 13/14 chance of seeing something that pisses me off. Tonight it was a Manning/Ole Miss circle jerk.

Then don't watch it. The first day it launched I turned it on to a Saban interview then straight to McElroy talking about Saban. I turned it off and haven't watched it since. I'll tune back in during football season.

Get used to it already people. This will be a lovefest for Alabama and occasionally someone else. It won't ever be about LSU. :beatdeadhorse:

Holy shite, this has already been explained on multiple occasions, but hey, keep tuning those tin foil hats.

Jesus people, FOOTBALL IS JUST A GAME.

If a game pisses you off you have serious priority issues

It'll be about winners. If LSU is the #1 winner it'll be about LSU.

No, it will be about the SEC. There are 14 teams in the SEC these days. They will cover them all. It's not a conspiracy against LSU.

The problem it will encounter is that everyone wants equal time, and there are a lot of teams. The passions in the conference is going to make it hard to keep viewers who will be slighted by other teams coverage, or perceived bias. They have a tough task ahead...

Not to be a dick, but this should have been obvious to anyone from the get-go...and honestly, it won't be anywhere near 13/14.

When you watch a national show, you expect LSU to not really be talked about unless they've done something great or something bad. On a network about the SEC, you'd LIKE TO THINK that a charter member would get a ton of love...but why pretend the SEC goes out of their way to cater to LSU or ever has?

I'm quite sure I'll never turn this network on until I have need to watch LSU play on there.

Every time I watch it Marcus spears is constantly talking about LSU. But this weekend they did show 3 Alabama games in a row but it was ok bc they lost all 3.

Some of you have serious mental issues. I don't understand have a TV channel can piss you off so much just because they don't tell you that your favorite football team is the greatest team in the history of sports.


You do realize the channel is for the entire conference right?

If LSU whips the Gumps arse and quits losing to Ole Miss they will be hyped the way they were a few years ago.

Since the network launched, there has been at least 30+ minutes of in depth analysis on the Alabama and Texas A&M QB situations.

I haven't seen more than 3 minutes of coverage detailing the battle between Jennings and Harris.

The network was announced in May 2013 and you're just now figuring out that they're going to cover 14 teams? Definitely giving yourself a lot of credit with that "already"

Not actively, but the channel occupies my second monitor throughout most of the day.

Just yesterday, Finebaum probably spent 20+ minutes talking to an AP writer from Alabama about their QB situation alone. On SEC Now, Kaylee Hartung gave us yet another report on the A&M QB situation, as if we haven't received enough coverage on that already. Just a few days prior, Greg McElroy actually spent time, on air, breaking down the throwing mechanics of both of A&M's QBs.

I don't believe the LSU QB battle has been discussed in any detail whatsoever on any of the shows.
