saniflush 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Someone brought this up on another board and I thought the responses were pretty interesting. I myself felt like there was a noticeable difference in how some things were presented since CTT made his statements last week. What were your thoughts?

Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Can you give some examples? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saniflush 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Starting with the Thursday night game they were showing the entire top 10 BCS teams and talking about all of them and their chances. That is the first time I had seen that in two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombigbeetiger 223 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 i do know there was a backlash across the nation against dan patrick....the responses and the emails were almost totally in favor of what Tubs said....i think it caught them with their britches down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auwallace 6 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 there wasn't a complete buttkissing of USC and Texas, i actually watched gameday just to see how they would react. It seemed to me they tried to be much more balanced however i still hate gameday. I wish it would go back to the days where they would actually talk about every top twenty five team instead of all those stupid segments on random players and the redundant analysis of the same three games. Plus i hate Big and Rich!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streyeder 0 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 USC has had PLENTY of 1st half scares this year, but UT gets JUST ONE and they jump all down their throat. USC is just great because they can come back, but UT sucks because they stumbled the first half. Wth..? Of course, the Zook got on there and claimed "No team has been through what we've been through." WTF?!?!?! Of course, 'ol Lou gave a helmet sticket to USC. I don't see any changes guys, sorry.

tombigbeetiger 223 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 i might be kidding myself,but i thought i noticed some subtle changes....maybe not.....that would be a lot for the annointed ones at espn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrnfanatc 6 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 To me, it seemed as if the talking heads are mentioning more than just the top 2, but Holtz, May and most likely Corso on Saturday are still doing their normal giving the props to Bush and Young. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexbo 104 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 One data point, I flipped over to the ESPN2 game on Wednesday night, it was late in the game and not much going on, but for the 3 minutes I was there watching, while plays were being run on the field, the only commentary was on Bush vs Leinart vs Vince Young for the Heisman; I couldn't take it anymore and switched back, absolutely convinced that ESPN has nothing else to talk about but those 2 teams and their players. You could probably tune to a women's lacrosse match on ESPN and hear the same debate... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUwingsfan 1 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 well I can't point out any specific examples, but they did seem to be tip-toeing around more, and appeared to try to be a bit more balanced. I'm glad tommy did what he did, and I wouldn't have cared if it would have been anyone else saying it, it needed to be said and the fact that it comes from a coach in a major conference like the SEC helps. I hope that VA tech finishes unbeaten....and well bama will come close, but we have to ruin it all for them (I hope)...oh well! War Eagle!!

RadioWryn 0 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Maybe I'm off my rocker, but wouldn't it be halfway funny to see a boycott of College Gameday when they come down to see AU/Bama? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexbo 104 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Better yet, how about people show up in USC and Texas gear, and signs for Bush and Leinart and Vince Young for Heisman? And then after the game CTT could go on the air and say that ESPN was so biased against the SEC, 'Bama and Auburn they wouldn't let our fans show up, and so they brought in their own fans...

Ryan Sanders 123 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Like someone said above, I don't like Big and Rich. I liked the old Gameday music better, but that is just me. If Auburn could just get into the SEC Champ. game, then go to New Orleans.. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
