They should be kicked out. That's a shameful performance by A&M.

Just one more step towards paying to watch any college football games?

TNT Sports will begin airing College Football Playoff games this upcoming season through a sublicense with ESPN.
The five-year agreement announced Wednesday gives TNT two first-round games the first two years. Beginning in 2026, it expands to two first-round and two quarterfinals.
ESPN's $7.8 billion deal with the College Football Playoff, which was announced in March, allowed it to sublicense games to other networks.

I think this is awful for the sport. The further you get away from Fox, ABC, NBC, CBS, and ESPN, the less of a chance the average fan watches the game. I don't know how many games they are going to carry, and they aren't going to carry the big boys, but I don't think this is good.
I am somewhat surprised ESPN can't do it with ABC, ESPN and ESPN2. They do it all college football season long.
Not really a shock, the basketball title game was on TBS this year.
Go Gators!

You have college basketball games thrown in the mix as well as a few NFL games as well, although that is only on Monday Night.
I mean, if Duke, UNC, Kansas or Kentucky are playing basketball and the 5/12 playoff game is up, wouldn't it make sense to sublicense it out in that sense?
Then again with how expensive cable and streaming are getting I completely understand. Just did away with YouTube TV and went to Sling myself.

A playoff game would dwarf anything college basketball has to offer in December.
I get that the NCAA uses Turner, I do think its a mistake to put the final four and championship game not on CBS. But they also start it after half the country is asleep, but I digress. But when you have 4 games going on during the opening round, you need someone else to broadcast all the games. Its funny because during the Thursday of the opening round everyone is out there trying to find out what channel True TV is!
But I think the further you get away from the big networks, or even the big streamers, the more challenging it is for people to actually watch the game.
This is gonna be fun...
