It’s not like ESPN has $300 million invested or anything in the SEC.

of course ESPN favors the SEC - they paid a massive amount of money to televise SEC games. So what?

He is the dumbest guy in the football media universe, and that is saying something, because he has out-dumbed Dan Orlovsky.

Well honestly that’s not surprising. They got the SEC TV package so yeah it’s to be expected. Not saying other teams won’t hate it but yeah they’re gonna promote their games more.

Everyone always wants equality without having to put that work in.

The best quote on Equality that I've ever heard:

The diversity of mankind is a basic postulate of our knowledge of human beings. But if mankind is diverse and individuated, then how can anyone propose equality as an ideal? Every year, scholars hold Conferences on Equality and call for greater equality, and no one challenges the basic tenet. But what justification can equality find in the nature of man? If each individual is unique, how else can he be made 'equal' to others than by destroying most of what is human in him and reducing human society to the mindless uniformity of the ant heap?

ESPN will favor anything that will make ABC more money.

NFL GMs think the talent is better so ofc it’s a more interesting league. Klatt is just a bitch about it

Just keep this in mind..

Klatt is the same guy who announced he was "all in" on Tennessee being a national title contender the week before they go and lose to a mid-tier Arkansas team. So yeah..

Yes they are spinning it, but who really cares what they write? ND, Iowa St, and Clemson jumped LSU in the AP for absolutely no reason other than teams LSU played, losing. Iowa St's best win is 2 loss Iowa who has no good wins. Clemson's 4 wins come against 3 teams with losing records, and a 3-3 team. They lost by 28 to UGA. ND beating TAMU week one in Elko's first game is not the same as what TAMU is now. Similarly, you lost to freaking NIU. Going above LSU right now makes absolutely zero sense. What it boils down to is that everybody is biased. Calling out biases is what you should have done last year when people even dreamed of the thought of Bo Nix and Michael Penix playing and have a better heisman season than Jayden Daniels.

Yea and Fox is biased towards the Big 10. It's simple economics and marketing

Recent history favors the SEC. Ohio State looks good on paper, but never closes out the big game when it counts, in the playoffs. Perception of good during the season has to translate to titles, or there is no argument.

Yeah, no shite. They did invest a ton of money into it. This what people like Klatt has allowed college football to become.

1. don't see it in the tweet quoted
2. so you're saying ESPN favors money? Yes we know. That's why they gave us our own network. Who cares?

I feel real strong there will be two teams in the Championship Game and both of them will be from the SEC. This might be a problem for the next several years.

ESPN/ABC are SEC territory. Should ESPN pump up their competition?
