🏈 WK2: SEC/NCAA Games of the Week.

The following is a very hypocritical post:

ICYMI, last night W KY beat ULL in a pretty close ball game. It was one of those "all offense" kind of football games which I dislike hate.

I don't like the idea of Bama playing on a Thursday night unless it's post-season, right? But, on the other hand is it too much to think we could have some Power 5 teams play?
 
FYI before anyone jumps CBS for the UGA-Vandy game. CBS does not even have a contract with the SEC for the first two weeks of the season. Those games were sub-let from ESPN who does have the contract.
I know it was set up that way when CBS had the US Open contract. They lost it to ESPN starting in 2015.

Yes, and it is still that way. Thus the sub-let from ESPN. CBS is in a lose-lose situation with ESPN for the first two weeks of each season until the ESPN contract with the SEC is up for renewal. And I wouldn't bet on it changing then. Just because CBS might want it doesn't mean that ESPN is going to give it up. I would be surprised if CBS even renewed their contract with the SEC.

This morning it dawns on me. The desire to see UT get beaten in a game like this one against OU is primarily rooted in some of those older bastards. In about a month it's going to mark eight years since Bama has lost a game to the Vols. Eight years of winning tends to put things in perspective.

I could see rooting for OU a few years ago. Now, there's Stoops mouth that makes me cringe.

7AM, the day of the game, and I still don't know how I feel.
 
I'm looking forward to a few games today.

LSU @ Miss State
OU @ Tenn
Oregon @ Michigan State
Georgia @ Vanderbilt (just to see how Vandy's defense improves)

Interesting that both Oregon schools are playing @ Michigan schools today.
  • Oregon State @ Michigan
  • Oregon @ Michigan State

I resemble that older bastard remark. :D I understand what you are saying, but to me UT is Texas and tennessee is ut. I wouldn't pull for those SOBs against ISIS! It was criminal what Phil Fulmer and Roy Kramer did to Bama. F ut!

Pre Fulmer I always had a grudging respect for UT. Even though he has been gone for a while now I haven't regained that feeling.
 
I'm back in Cowboys Stadium for a Saturday high school game, then back to the house for the Bama game.
