Great for recruiting...unless you are Auburn. Then is probably hurts recruiting.

Imagine if it had been on CBS.

I wonder if a CBS exec lost his job over that?

Makes sense now that ESPN is going to go all in to outbid CBS when that contract is up in a few years.

I'm not that type of poster, but I'd love to see the northern and west coast guys on the MSB argue around this one.

I got shite on in a thread about the Iron Bowl saturday. I was drunk, and it wasn't the most thought out thread( ), but they acted like the Iron Bowl was a damn high school chess matchup.

That was an epic game! But the Game of the Century in 2011 had a two week hype with a countdown clock, etc. I would have thought that game had more viewers.
