Every game on ESPN or ABC feels the the same and they never feel like big games. It doesn't matter if it's the MAC Wednesday Night Game of the Week or the National Championship Game. It just feels like another annoying and shitty game on ESPN.
Exactly why I hate we are losing CBS. ESPN/ABC better do it like they do the Rose Bowl.

As I understand it the SEC is totally and exclusively going with ESPN/ABC.
That always seemed to me like putting all of your eggs in one basket. Was CBS not even allowed to bid on it??
I hope Sankey knows what he is doing. The guy that is the commissioner of the ACC got hornswoggled by ESPN.
How will the total TV package for the SEC compare to the big ten?

I guess we are ;locked in with ESPN. No changing the contract before it starts?

Someone at ABC/ESPN needs to get to work on a trade package for the SEC on CBS theme song
Send them Mickey Mouse, Darth Vader, and a future 1st round pick for all I care. We cannot let that flawlessly composed piece of music history fall into the hands of the Northern frickasses.

I wish ESPN would hire some of CBS producers...Not happening I know but damn ESPN just goes cheap on their production.
I would rather watch CBS over any other networks College Football coverage.
I would rather watch CBS over any other networks NFL coverage.
I would rather watch CBS over any other networks College Basketball coverage.
And we are leaving them.

With the West Coast teams joining, that could be a noonish kickoff for them if Michigan @ USC were the featured game

I'm thrilled beyond words to not have to hear Gary Danielson call another SEC game.
As annoying as it was to hear him slurp on Alabama while calling SEC games, at least it was relevant. He is going to annoy the shite about of Big10 fans talking about Alabama the whole time.

They are making bold moves but I am not sure the Big Ten is a long term draw. Even with the two California teams. The problem isn't the big time match ups.
You'll get some eyes with USC vs Michigan after all. But once you cross off the very top teams you run into problems. Are people really going to be beating down the door to watch Minnesota play Rutgers?
They might not be ratings juggernauts but folks will tune in to watch Ole Miss vs. Arkansas or South Carolina vs. Florida.
I think CBS is over paying for something that will likely under perform when it comes to ratings.

So the big ten is going to take in 1B per year from FOX, NBC, and CBS and we will get 300M from ABC/ESPN.
How are we not going to be left in the dust financially and how did we allow this to happen? It’s not like we signed our deal decades ago or anything. We just signed last year and in one years time the Big Ten has tripled us for their TV package and gets to be on 3 networks. The SEC will primarily be on cable with one game a week on broadcast. The Big Ten is going to dominate us financially and in terms of exposure.

Here we go again about politics...which has NOTHING to do with the post.

My whole entire lifetime of memories of CFB revolve primarily around the SEC being on CBS.
I get that but don't forget, it was the great SEC teams and games that made the whole CBS 2:30 cachet, not the other way around. It might be different but we'll just establish ourselves elsewhere and THOSE will be the big games.
