Fans can hate Texas all they want but this is one of the biggest reasons we were brought to the SEC and why the Presidents of Universities absolutely wanted Texas to come to the SEC.

the trickle down value of of adding Texas and OU is and will be immense for the other 14 institutions.

You should be thanking LSU and Lane for your extra views.

Well 13. You can't trickle up to Alabama. They're historically the most-watched most seasons.

Ole Miss can thank LSU, Texas, and the schedule makers for a Sunday night game on opening wknd when they were the only game on.

One of these things is not like the others. Is Ole Miss there to hold their jocks?

This isn't news to anyone who didn't want Texas in the SEC....it was not something those people were willing to sell their soul for. Hell, we can't even pick a guitar and we done sold our soul to the devil....

At least 2 of those played one another and every damn one of them played someone....who knows why someone was tuned in?

And how many of those TVs were actually being watched outside of bars, restaurants and airport gates? Ohio State and Michigan have both had noon starts this season....its a sad state of affairs when noon on Saturday gathers that many people glued to a TV. It is more likely that most were merely background noise while people were doing other things. It might be normal in November in Michigan to watch TV at noon on a Saturday because its too damned cold to do anything else but to do so in September and October, in the kinds of numbers, is sad. Very sad. More likely the vast majority of TVs tuned in are being ignored. It is entirely possible to know as much about what happened during the day on Saturday by watching TV at midnight for 30 minutes on Sunday. I and most of us here I assume are glued to every snap when OUR team is on but anyone spending noon to midnight glued to TV to watch a bunch of 20 year old millionaires in September and October on Saturdays is sad.
