RANT. I am watching the FCS NC Central ranked 10th in the nation vs Morgan St. Morgan is ahead 3-0 at halftime. My complaint is why does ESPN spend halftime talking about FBS football. They are doing the FCS fans a disservice.

Because they don't know anything about FCS football.

I agree with you and it's not new. It is really obnoxious when the FCS tournament begins and every FCS game is used to promote the FBS tournament, especially the championship game. The announcers will be talking about upcoming FBS games while ignoring the action going on right in front of their bleeping eyes.

Keep ranting sir.

ESPN treats FCS games as commercials for upcoming FBS games. It's always been like this.


Showing pressure on fourth down in overtime. They bring pressure. Lamson throws...Endzone! Caught! TOUCHDOWN!!! Taco Dowler!

And a kick away from a championship.

Here we go. Miles Sansted. Snap, hold, kick, Up, GOOOOD!! FOR A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!

They should bring in San Herder or Colter via video link to talk FCS football at halftime.

Colter loves videos. I laughed at his comment when interviewing coach Johnson how people want to see the interviews and not just listen. .

My favorite episodes of Nuanez Now are when he's out of the office and the tv feed is just and empty studio. :D SWX is really starved for content.
