Conspiracy or one ND-hater at ESPN.com?

[tripsdad]

We finally beat a ranked team and ESPN screws up the posting on the Top 25 Overview:

NCAA College Football Game Recaps and Overviews - Week 11 - ESPN

Scroll down to what should be the ND-Utah overview and it shows the correct score - even links to the correct page - but has the wrong teams and the wrong overview.

So, idiots or haters?

Lol, I saw that too. Damn you ESPN!

 

[blnewcomer]

That's bull***. I mean come on. They can't expect us to believe that was a mistake. Did they not realize they had TCU's score already and that TCU is obviously ranked 3rd currently. How could any idiot type out TCU with no ranking and put them against No. 14 San Diego St. knowing damn well San Diego St. is not ranked. Ridiculous.

ESPN announcers are a bunch of bums, I just got done explaining why they hate on us to my fiancée. Not like our NBC guys are a whole lot better, there were a couple of times yesterday I wanted to punch Mayock in the throat!

Yikes. I mean, it really creeps me out when Hammond stares at Mayock, but besides that I thought they've been good. I like it when they tell interesting stories about the other team, like how Shaky is raising his brother and the kid's got a 4.0.

The "mistake" is still on their page at 1:39 CST. Hacks.

Here's a summary:

The game was over when: Brian Smith cried during Senior roll call.

Stat of the game: Martin's experienced a 560% increase in marshmallow sales, hitting an all-time sales high (adjusted for inflation), eclipsing the mark set at the onset of camping season, 1987.

"Player" of the game: Deez-mond Howard for picking Utah. Hope you enjoyed your team's last win of the season.

And it is also wrong on the game page!

Submitted to Corrections on ESPN:

"On the College Football Top 25 Overview page, as well as on the Notre Dame-Utah game summary page, there is a mistake. The teams listed are TCU-SDSU instead of ND-UU and the text is the same as the TCU-SDSU overview. Given that this was incorrect yesterday and continues to be incorrect today, I can only assume that whoever is in charge of the Top 25 Overview is a rabid Notre Dame hater"

I'm sure everyone feels the same, but I'm tired of ESPN and their BS. They're always quick to point out an ND loss and most recently the tragedy/turmoil with the death of Declan but whenever we get a win, we get no coverage. I was waiting all afternoon for highlights or coverage about the win to be broadcasted and nothing! I think overall, the entire network is just hating, period!

It's become more pronounced lately for some reason, but ESPN/ABC obviously hates ND mainly due their contract with NBC. I hope we start winning big just to watch Mark Gay and ESPN squirm.

This is pathetic. How could this victory of ours not get it's proper due, considering all the garbage we have had to listen to all season long. This was a very big game for us and ESPN can't even get it right. Just goes to show you can only read ESPN with a grain of salt. I had no idea that SDSU was ranked 14 in the nation. lol. Ridiculous!

IT is so far beyond infuriating I'm speechless.
TONS of coverage losing to Tulsa...even apart from Dulcans death. Everybody was reporting on the Kelly bad call at the end.
But now, we goush a top 20 team and...zip zero. Absolutely NOTHING. Even Holtz didn't get a chance to talk about them....
I'm about to pop with anger btw Take cover
