Why can't ESPN put the FCS on TV?
We get Buffalo and Ohio????? Are you kidding me? Would it have killed them to move up the JMU/Richmond game to friday? Full house with two better teams to watch.....
"Born in other countries, yet believing you could be happy in this, our laws acknowledge, as they should do, your right to join us in society, conforming, as I doubt not you will do, to our established rules. That these rules shall be as equal as prudential considerations will admit, will certainly be the aim of our legislatures, general and particular." --Thomas Jefferson, letter to Hugh White, 1801

I agree completely. The FCS has done a poor job of getting on TV. Meanwhile, there are hundreds of high school games on ESPN every week.

Oh, they CAN put FCS on TV. They just choose to believe that we don't exist until the Chipper, and even that's a condescension for them.
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

Thursday night football was created for 1-AA football, but awful ratings forced the network to start showing name schools.
