Watching ESPN cfb highlights from yesterday I think they are adding fake crowd noise

Just accept that it's all a television show.

Sports and elections are a lot alike. There is far too much money involved to leave it all to random outcomes.

There is only one political party just like you have good guys and bad guys in wrestling that all work for the same company. Sometimes the good guys flip bad and vice versa. It's a show.

Sports are more like that than ever today.

Don't worry the script writers will favor your teams and candidates on a pretty regular cycle to keep us all tuned in.

All about money.

On a day with this many upsets and great games you think they needed fake crowd noise???

Fox still does this (including fake grunting noises) during highlights on the halftime show.
