As far as when it ended, Kentucky Basketball had a TV ban in the late 80s (that included local TV too, not just National). I can't really recall anyone after that.



I think Auburn's 1993 football team was banned from TV.

Gotcha. I couldn't remember anyone after ours and I think UNLV wasn't long after us so just assumed it stopped there.

We were at least lucky enough to have Cawood Ledford on the radio.

ETA: It looks like the full on TV bans stopped around there. UNLV had appearances "limited" for their non conference games.

Yep....The Barn-tards got a TV ban that year. You had to drive to Tuscaloosa to watch it on a big screen at BDS or listen to it on the radio. To add insult to injury, Auburn won that year.
