Alabama is only game between ranked opponents so College Gameday of course goes to Michigan.? I don't know if Holtz is a good analyst because I can't understand what the **** he is slurring half the time. Him and Shannon Sharpe shouldn't be analysts.

ESPN is in the ratings business. It's the same as Yanks/Sox, Cowboys, Lakers, Duke B-Ball, Tiger Woods. They know that when they talk about those teams or players they get better ratings. If they spent equal time talking about the Minnesota Timberwolves or Ottawa Senators their ratings would be in the toilet and thus wouldn't make as much money.

I think it has more to do with ESPN paying big $$$ to actually show a ND game and it being the first Michigan night home game ever. If the game was on NBC, and not ESPN, they'd probably be in Happy Valley for the SEC/BigX matchup.

Alabama and Penn St get far more coverage than the wolves or senators. They just don't get as much as Notre dame because they're regional teams where Notre dame has a more national fanbase

Well, I guess they're a Catholic School, and the Catholics, generally speaking, have the most the money (thanks to us taxpayers), so there IS a reason. Apparently the Church provides a more important service to the public than anyone else (like food, shelter and clothing providers), so they deserve tax exempt status over less important institutions. And we, in exchange, get to hear about Notre Dame over a myraid of more deserving programs til the End Of Time. |

I used to root for ND back in the day but they've become so over-hyped and their noses are so far in the air that I just can't stand them anymore...
Talk about a team that gets way too much undeserved attention. They haven't really been worth a **** in 10 years. |

I'm tired of both Notre Dame and Michigan. Every year it's supposed to be their "start of a new era" or "return to glory" blah blah blah...
