Gee, that's a nice recruiting/exposure advantage


You could be Auburn and have your spring game on the Ocho.

That is the advantage of being the biggest TV draw in college sports.

FOX is making them a priority versus Woke Disney ABC/ESPN


Not being argumentative but didn’t Disney just buy Fox? Seriously thought I read that somewhere but maybe I’m wrong.

ESPN is only showing one spring game (as far as I can tell) and it's tomorrow at 3pm Central. It features last tear's SEC champion. Enjoy!

Yes but not that part.

It's not allowed since Disney already owns ABC. All the movie/TV series stuff and most everything else was bought by Disney, but not the channel itself or the sports stuff.

First off, who gives a crap about any spring game for anyone?


I’m glad for ESPN because I can watch games I was never able to watch before they came into the picture. Plus getting to watch games on ESPN+ allows me to watch baseball games I couldn’t even listen to on the radio. Many here weren’t around when there were only 3 networks and we only got to see maybe 1 game a year.

We need to learn to appreciate what we have access to, it can be a hell of alot worse.

Just watched the Suckeye spring game, now switched to ESPN. I watched Fox by antenna and the picture and sound were crystal clear and it really shows compared to this over compressed stream of ESPN. Hope the money they're giving the SEC is worth it.

Edit- our Spring game will be on LHN like it has been for many years, I was hoping they would switch to regular ESPN so more could watch, but noooo
