Good stuff - thanks for sharing!

I didn't click the link.

What are you taking from this/implying?

Thanks for sharing, I didn't know that Pitt was a part of ESPN's first live game. I will be interested to see part two and three of the series when they talk about ratings.

It's impressive that Pitt is the 12th most broadcast team despite having a terrible cfb program throughout the 1990s.

I was surprised to see Georgia Tech on the list too and that there are more ACC teams than SEC on the list.

CBS picks the best SEC game(s) before ABC/ESPN gets a shot at them.

Today's segment was on Thursday night games:

A lot of GT and VT in the stats:
