Funny example of ESPN’s bias against LSU and Brian Kelly

ESPN College Football uploaded a bizarre video that has a really queer take. At the start of this clip, Finebaum (who was a big fan of the BK hire in the off season) compares BK to Bryan Harsin in that he’s “about to be out and counted down” and is toast after a “bizarre” game against Mississippi State. No mention that they won the game at all
Okay, okay… Finebaum’s a troll and an idiot.
But the Freudian slip in the description is pretty funny (note LSU’s loss to Mike Leach and Mississippi State):

Nice work on the screen shot there. ESPN is going to shite on LSU's hire of BK until he wins it all. Then they will compare him to Coach O and pray for the downfall.

Welcome to the SEC, Kelly!
That comment was so ridiculously bad, they want to pounce on him for the way he left Notre Dame.

My God finebaum doesn't know a fricking thing

i really LOVE the hate we're getting... this is just another example.
I was listening to some national show last week (prior to msu) and they were discussing the ND loss and saying that ND might want BK back and one national host said "yeah, lsu fans are ready for him to be gone". Then another host who was an lsu fan kind of confusingly said "what are you talking about, lsu fans are on board"...
I hope the media keeps shitting on us adn we go into tenner 4-1 and unranked because of "perception" then roll through there adn get to bama 7-1 and somehow still unranked. I just want to never be ranked because the media hates us but also never lose... "worst 14-1 team ever".

Just watch the games, and ignore all media pundits. They don't know any more than anybody else.

Did they type that headline in the first half and just never bothered to update it?
Posted on 9/20/22 at 10:05 am to mattytiger123
All the establishment media types hate that he left notre dame for a what he perceived as a better job. its an unforgivable sin in their eyes.

Finebaum didn't say Kelly was toast. Said he was toast of the town. That is the opposite of being toast.

So he’s reached Biden level.

Nuff said.

It was just a terrible segway by Finebaum saying "speaking of a guy who was about to be counted out and counted down, he's now the toast of Louisiana, Brian Kelly...." The guest quickly responds that Kelly was in "nowhere near the hot water of the other guys we talked about."
To be fair, there were some people...LSU fans...ON THIS VERY BOARD...who were "down on Brian Kelly" after the FSU game. The screenshot, of course, is inexcusable.
It's not just LSU fans, but many LSU fans seem to have a far greater sense of insecurity than other fanbases and bristle at ANYTHING which can be perceived as a "slight". But the REALITY is LSU completely lost its credibility and the benefit of the doubt with the poor performance over the last two years. Like it or not, LSU has been a .500 program recently. They aren't going to get "national respect" back until they prove it with results. Losing to an average FSU team in embarrassing fashion (a blocked XP) didn't help win back that respect. Saturday's win over MSU in which LSU was an underdog going in was the first step in earning back that respect.
If come November LSU is 7-1, or even 6-2 heading into the game vs. Alabama, you'll see national pundits talking about how LSU may have a shot at upsetting Alabama.
Free advice: Quit overreacting one way or the other after each individual game in year one of the Brian Kelly era.

Half the fans here were trashing Kelly and about a quarter wanted him fired after FSU. Is it really surprising the the national media is piling on too?

When someone at ESPN like SVP or Herbstreit says something good about LSU do you make a post about that or do you just think that there is some national agenda against us?

Russillo (who is keyed into LSU and will admit he is a “fan”) straight up said “LSU fans, the media doesn’t like your coach”
So this isn’t LSU fans being sensitive. The way he said it was that this is definitely a thing.

Finebaum has been sucking off Alabama for so long…
Their dominance is slipping and Paul will be out of a job soon

But the Freudian slip in the description is pretty funny (note LSU’s loss to Mike Leach and Mississippi State):
-The titles sometimes are 10-20 seconds worth in a 3 minute video.
-When they show a short replay of a game several of the the plays and scores are shown out of order. Like you'll see the end of the game in some of them and then it'll switch to a play in the 3rd quarter.
-When they try to break down segments of a show, instead of taking just that segment, sometimes they run a minute of a previous segment leading into it.
-Sometimes the video will start with the title topic, but then it finishes up after a minute or 2 and like the last several minutes of the video is something completely different.
-Some of the descriptions have the wrong information like the wrong teams playing each other, the wrong scores, and the wrong winner. Seriously, it's like their video team is outsourced to another country.
