BTW, the SkyCam feed for the Boise St/Miss game is available too. Guess we'll see what happens when the AAC contacts them. Pulling losses to non-P5 needs to be nipped in the bud. The scary part is that two otherwise intelligent people actually believe this game was pulled because Vandy lost/was losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, no. Look again. ESPN owns it, SEC provides games. The SEC Network has a built-in advantage over the Pac-12 and Big Ten networks because it is owned by ESPN.

If you really think that ESPN "owns" the network then I can understand why you believe the conspiracy theories. There is no way on earth the SEC would allow someone else to own their network. Completely illogical. Just because that writer is an idiot doesn't mean what he wrote is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scary part is that two otherwise intelligent people actually believe this game was pulled because Vandy lost/was losing. And some can't admit they are wrong. So why is the aTm/South Carolina game on WatchESPN? Why isn't this thrashing not FRONT PAGE news on ESPN? And even Wikipedia says SEC Network is "Owned by ESPN, inc", If you are certain you are right. POST ONE THING SUPPORTING IT!

I'm sorry you can't comprehend the truth. Do you even have access? Have you even watched the SEC shows on there? They are all copyrighted ESPN. Here's the logo: http://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/Journal/Issues/2014/01/13/Media/SEC-net.aspx That fee, paid on a monthly per-subscriber basis, is what cable and satellite companies within the SEC’s 11-state footprint would pay to ESPN, the owner of the SEC Network.

I was JUST now watching the replay on ESPN3, stepped outside to take the trash out to the truck as they were driving by, come back, and... ESPN PULLED THE GAME FROM THE REPLAY LIST My screen had nothing but an error page, when I reloaded the page, I got nothing but the SEC splash screen. Here's the link for proof.http://espn.go.com/watchespn/player/_/id/1973105/size/condensed/ It's as if the game never happened. WTF ESPN?????? Apparently the SEC Network has rights to this game. ESPN and sec network have joint ownership Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN owns the network. Happy? The SEC owns the CONTENT. That is what is relevant in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
