So, replaying the SEC championship game didn't get ratings?

I'm shocked...lol

I didn't watch the game...didn't even watch the highlights afterwards. Just not interested in what ESPN was selling, which is all SEC, all the time.

They would have had much better ratings for the final if they had matched UGA and Bama in the semi. That way the people who loathe the SEC would tune in to cheer for whoever won the other semi.

But ESPN got exactly what they wanted...an "all SEC final." Who cares about ratings, right?

Why start the game at 8:00 pm, on a week night? -- EDGEMAN 01/12/2022 07:45AM

8:30 or even 9:00 on a Friday night would work out for both coasts. -- Maroon Baboon 01/12/2022 10:37AM

Friday night is a no go because the networks don't want to impact -- VTHokie2000 01/13/2022 5:47PM
