I'm not an "ESPN-hates-us" guy


Nov 30, 2019, 10:46 AM

But, it's weird that they've done 2 different extended segments on rivalries on Gameday this morning and not really even a whisper of the Clemson/USC game. One segment even had a focus on the ACC/SEC rivalries and they showed FSU/FL , LOU/Kent, and GT/UGA. No mention of our game.

At first I was thinking that it was probably because our game is considered likely to not be close, but the line on GT/UGA is much higher. I was thinking it may be because USC hasn't been relevant in so long, but when was the last time GT was relevant?

It's just odd.

caveat: I missed the first 10 minutes, so it's possible I missed something I suppose.

Nothing beyond a Willie B shot and stating we have owned the series for a while.

yea...I don't buy into the "ESPN hates us" narrative

I think it's likely due to other storylines... UGA fighting for 4th spot, OU in the battle for 4th, etc..

ESPN has many times been a Clemson recruiting video.

That was then. They are bored of Clemson now and want to see any other team play Bama for the championship.

It's strange

I mean the GT/GAME is pretty much the exact same scenario as our game. Cross conference rival. Large spread. Both Clemson and UGA must win today to keep their playoff hopes alive. In fact it could be argued there's a better story line in mentioning the games together due to the UGA/USC game earlier in the year.

Again, I don't buy into the bias narrative. I just find it strange.
