You made my point for me. I dont get some of the negative responses to this thread. Deep thinkers; for sure.:ermm:
The OP suggested ESPN's commercial violates NCAA rules. Perhaps the NCAA should ban ESPN from showing highlights of bowl games for 2 years and reduce the number of SportsCenter anchors by 1 this year and 2 in 2012.

Extremist. You know exactly what the op is saying. And as the unfair advantage that it is, it should cease. Promoting one team over others should be a violation of some obscure NCAA rule. There are plenty to choose from.
Don't think anyone is denying it's good publicity for said program. It's the retarded idea that anyone would think this is somehow a NCAA violation.

I don't think you grasped what the op was trying to convey; that it is an advantage, and probably should be stopped, and if necessary by an ncaa rule prohibiting such. Retarded is a strong word to use in response to a discussion thread; and use of such indicates a sore lack of vocabulary to express oneself properly. Furthermore, I believe he was asking the forum for an opinion on the matter.
I think it's unfair that Alabama was in the 3:30 CBS time slot so often this season.
The NCAA should ban CBS from televising college football, or force them to put Vandy-Ole Miss as the season opening game in prime time for the next 5 years.
