They did Arkansas and Texas this year. Also Ole Miss and Wake. I can't think of a SEC Conference game off the top of my head.

I wish CBS would replace those two idiots with Mike Patrick and Todd Blackledge. IMO they are the best commentator team in college football.

Well,even after CBS started doing weekly SEC games in 1996,ABC still did the SEC Championship game through 2000 ,I think. I know CBS did the LSU-Tennessee game in 2001 and I know ABC did the 1998 Miss State-Tennessee game.Not positive on 1999 or 2000.

I believe the last regular season SEC conference game ABC did was LSU's 28-0 win over Arkansas in 1995.

Blackledge...hell yes.

Mike Patrick...no thanks. His work during the college world series was TERRIBLE, and then there is always this:

Keith Jackson's hard-on for the Bear and Bama, was worse than anything you've ever seen from Brent Musburger toward USC.

I agree. Blackledge may be the best analyst working in college football today, IMO. But Patrick is god awful. He wants SOOOO badly to be the analyst and the play by play guy. Annoying

Musberger is usually drunk by the 2nd half of these night games. Anyone have the clip of him calling the UGA-ASU game this year talking about UGA The Mascot while S***faced? I swear he referred to UGA as a SOB right before it hits the commercial break in the 4th qtr.
