Who cares.

I would watch that religiously, and then they went and changed the format.

That show sucks big-time now.

Honestly, I liked it when it had Mark May and lou Holtz. They had terrible opinions but were charismatic enough to hold my attention. They would also follow around the gameday sets and host shows there the day before. Haven't really watched it since. I think I caught it one time and it was just some unknown dudes sitting in chairs, I was bored after 30 seconds.

ESPN is in all out panic mode trying to figure out why they are hemorrhaging viewers/subscribers... this is why. Things that worked, they axed or ruined.

I haven’t watched espn for non sports content in probably 10 years. A little bit before they revamped their site and killed the message boards. They ruined the site just like their shows. They used to actually have good writers and content on the site. All those guys left and are working for sites like The Atlantic now.

Too soon.

When I want opinion, I just ask myself.

It's better when they devote time to all teams/conferences. But the fact is that 75% of their coverage is on the SEC, 20% on other big time schools not in the SEC, 5% on completely random topics.

Could be used as a great platform to get some attention to smaller conferences as well. Now I am a realist, that isn’t what pays the bills. Instead of using the platform to educate the average fan on a ton of teams and give in depth looks etc, it is literally a few guys smoking joes and drinking booze in a bar talking.

I've watched more BTN programming than ESPN in the last few years because of this. Their team specific stuff, while still fluff, is more entertaining. There's only so much someone can take watching ESPN profile the same 4-5 SEC teams every year. The format used to be far more universal, you could watch CFB live and get an overview of national stories in CFB rather than just what Alabama is doing.

The ESP5N Cartel is the epitome of pure evil. They are trying to the ruin one of the purest American Institutions, college football, all in the pursuit of viewership, power and $$$$.

Death to The ESP5N Cartel. The only I have watched on ESP5N is live sporting events and 30 for 30s. 30 for 30s are amazing. And that's how they hook to watch their propagandaand lies. ..

The Athletic has great content for CFB on a daily basis. It's like $4/month too. ND has their own beat writer which is why I subscribed. But I have access to all the content. The series they are doing on the 150th anniversary of CFB has been fantastic.

That is why they will fail. Paid content doesn’t last. It is out of touch. Too much free and solid information and articles out there.

It's the model everything is going to, including streaming video. It's a la carte media consumption. It seems to have worked well for a lot of media entities; especially recruiting sites.

It's worth that price for the content and to not have to deal with ad videos or pop ups.

It returns Monday (July 15) at 4:30 PM EDT, with reruns later each day.

Not surprising since SEC Media days are this week.

They decided to shake things up by bringing in new show runners from AMC. The new version will be called "College Game Day Dead."
