SEC games not televised by ESPN

SBK500+ posts

I was wondering what SEC fans think about their games not able to be seen on ESPN.

While other leagues are allowing ESPN to televise their games at no charge, the SEC would not go along with it. Therefore the only SEC team to be on ESPN will be LSU when they play Tulane. It’s because it will be under the C-USA banner.

What do you guys think about it? I think the SEC is focusing too much on the short term. Perhaps if they would give away the product for free in the beginning and build a following, down the road it might be better for all.

Here is the link to the article. The SEC issue is in the shaded box in the right side of the page.

While this might be considered a business decision, I don't see how it's a good business decision.
