So instead of coming to Baton Rouge for a top 15 matchup that could very well decide the SEC title ESPN chooses to go to Duke @ unranked Syracuse

No one cares about LSU. Even if we’re playing and/or beating Kentucky. Just the way it is right now

They just did Tennessee and Kentucky. Why would they want to do Tennessee again since they just fell flat on their face?

Also, since Syracuse won at Duke the first time, ESPN expects a close game now.

What can you expect? ESPN blows Zion harder than Lebron, Kapernick, the Warriors, and Tom Brady combined.

Not to mention Syracuse is a huge viewership footprint for college basketball.

Logistically how would it work since they do the show on the court with general admission seating, with tip being at 11, where would be shoot around, how would they clear the court and get the general admin out?

Why on earth would you expect ESPN to come set up here when they've been trashing us as much as they have

well Zion is the best player on the best team, so what do you expect.

And let's be honest, Zion is an INCREDIBLE talent, plays hard and with appropriate emotion, cares about winning, and make a highlight-reel play or two every game.

The guy is a draw for TV -- that's why they're on him so much.

They wouldn’t. That’s another reason why. We fricked up having the tip at 11.

Of course I know that’s how it is, and Zion is amazing, but they dick ride him harder than anyone I’ve ever seen. It doesn’t really matter he’s great, but ESPN is all politics and garbage now.

If we keep winning, they will come, shouldn't take this personally.

Go to the WatchESPN and navigate to NCAA Basketball highlights.

It's basically ESPN Gargling Zion's balls.
