These are guys that will probably kneel next year, so I'm boycotting them now.

Preemptive strike.

Birmingham is consistently on top of the ratings for CFB and Bama is the top team currently in the SEC, that’s why they chose that game.



It was still a stupid decision. Nobody thought that game would be competitive. I mean, Michigan gets big ratings, but I doubt ESPN will put Michigan/Rutgers on ABC in primetime.

Meh, hindsight is 20-20. Vandy was undefeated, at home, and had a top ranked defense coming into the game.

I think the storms have impacted the ratings more than people realize. Just so many people affected in the SE.

Well he's right.

At least the Pac-12 is mediocre across the board - so there's a lot of intrigue.

And there's intrigue in the Big10 among 4 teams.

And there's marginal intrigue in the Big12.

And a possibility of intrigue in the ACC.

There is zero intrigue in the SEC. ZERO.



Fold the tent, go home.

Bama was a 20 point favorite.

NC State has been fun to watch. Their QB is legit.

Exactly. Sure, nobody expected 59-0. But if you weren't expecting something like 40-14, you weren't paying attention.

20pt on the odds sheet is a blowout. No one wants to watch that shite.

Who wants to watch Alabama throttle everyone every week? SEC fricked themselves by bowing down to Lord Saban every chance they get. They still get every call which amazes me.

YUP.... Now THIS week will be A teller.... Could be A VERY boring game with both offenses not being very good.. Plus the viewership may be down with people getting prepared foe A possible landfalling Hurricane along the Gulf Coast..........
