LSU being listed as the home game IS important

It’s what gives ESPN/ABC the game. If USC was the home team, the game would be on Fox/CBS/NBC. FYI - I think Cobb County is correct. ESPN isn’t paying the SEC that much money to put them on cable. The big games are always on other broadcast channels. They will promote the hell out of the SEC because they are paying a ton to do so. The SEC spin will be thick.

Been going on 4 about 15 years, remember back then when they trashed ACC 🏈

Wait to see Tony Altimore's revised chart at the end of the year
HouClone 08/22/24 03:49 PM ET
Most of Altimore’s charts are of little value.

Hopefully by the end of the year I'll have my research done to counter it
HokieAl 08/22/24 05:21 PM ET
Look forward to seeing it. If you can somehow factor in
HouClone 08/22/24 07:38 PM ET
All depends on what data is available. I have a possible source in mind**
HokieAl 08/22/24 07:51 PM ET
The Big 10 Network publishes ratings. Perhaps use that as
HouClone 08/22/24 08:18 PM ET
Unfortunatley, ACCN is not in the ratings book**
CobbCountyHokie 08/23/24 04:34 PM ET
Any insight as to why not?

LSU in Vegas is not a home game
HokieAl 08/22/24 03:49 PM ET
Here is why I noted it as an SEC home game

That's not different than any other season. SEC spin has been thick
HokieAl 08/22/24 05:19 PM ET
What ACC or Big XII games would you plug in instead?**

Let's think this one through. Let's say a 1-loss Clemson comes into Lane
CobbCountyHokie 08/22/24 03:48 PM ET
To answer *your* question, I don't know.
Pylons 08/22/24 03:58 PM ET
Yep. And this early in the season before we have playoff implications,
Femoyer Hokie 08/22/24 02:51 PM ET
I think it's pretty much been confirmed that only the SEC will play on ABC.
Baltimore_Hokie 08/22/24 02:37 PM ET
Yep. It's simple, the more that ABC has in its inventory, the more ABC will
