They are but too afraid to not comply. It's called intimidation.

Yes. But it was sporadic. If a girl wore a 'We Want Change' t-shirt the camera found her and the announcers noted the demand for social justice.

One report featured the story of the first black college player to have a stadium named after him because he died of injuries when racist white players tackled him too hard.

All Pre-Game shows were too much for me I turned the T.V. off til 11 AM.

Games seemed normal.As it can be.

A couple of the games I saw broke away from the action with pictures or video of the players and coaching staffs marching on their respective campii. LSU is wearing a pretty small patch on their jerseys that is honestly too small to read on a normal sized TV. I saw another team was wearing a helmet decal. I’ve seen two whole games this year, and chunks of 8 or 10 more, and the BLM stuff has been a lot less apparent than I’d expected.

There are still only one or two teams with the communist fist on their helmets.

good god man if you want to watch then watch, this post is clearly asking a seemingly reasonable curiosity while seeking to test the waters if its ok/safe to watch

care about football or dont care, watch or dont watch, but be honest with yourself why you are or arent watching

personally i dont care about football, i view it with the same level of interest as watching a dog walking the street and care just as much about it. how little they virtue signal now means nothing because as soon as viewership goes up they will go full blown if you are born white you are racist again

I watched TCU beat Texas..

Missed the pregame..

The Zoomer's poor level of play was way more embarrassing than any possible attempted political statement.

In NCAAF, it is literally SEC Champ vs Clem vs OSU..and way below are the rest..the token..The Field Bet.

Top 25 quality depth of your childhood is gone..there are the few elite..and then the heap.

Same. Haven't watched a game this year. And I won't the rest of the year.

I know, without a shadow of a doubt, that the country would be an infinitely better place if every pro and college sportsball team went bust at this point. I'm filling my time with other things.

Glad to see others have ditched the greatest sport of all time as well. I'm in a few right wing groups on Facebook and they're arguing over who's gonna win the national championship after calling for boycotts weeks ago.

Not as bad as the first couple of games were. I think they learned their lesson not to go on a 15 minute spew about social justice bull shite while ignoring the game.

Still too much bull shite going on but thankfully it's already dying down as winter approaches and NFL (CBS and FOX to be specific) has banned announcers from talking about anything but the actual football game.

ESPN made sure they showed Trevor LAwrence's warm up shirt stating "We need change"

It’s all about TV revenue, and that’s based on ratings. It’s clear that BLM stuff drags down ratings. Just look at the NBA and how viewership has gone for the league that refused to tone it down. So I’d guess the TV big wigs have started to lessen the BS. It’s all about the Benjamin’s...

Don’t know, didn’t watch 1 second of of football. It was the first Auburn-Georgia game I haven’t watched since I can remember, and I don’t really care.

I didn't really notice any, but I turn the games on after kickoff & listen to music instead of the game audio.
