Good to see ESPN respects our conference!

Postby mustangxc » Sat Oct 12, 2013 1:33 am

First they list the P5 schools, then the rest of the FBS schools, and then they have us along with all the FCS schools! Just scroll through the college football scoreboard and check to see a particular conference's scores and they have the order listed correct alphabetically with us lumped into the FCS group.

Where? On this page (http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard), the AAC is the top conference shown in the drop down menu.

It looks like they fixed it. Last night it was the P5 schools, the remaining FBS schools with the Sun Belt followed by us atop of the FCS list. Maybe an intern was messing with it or some idiot that does not follow college athletics and should not be working at ESPN? I was stunned when I saw it because it had previously been correct much like it is now. I'll let you know if I see it again.

Wait until next year when the AAC has no football teams listed in the top 50.

So the drop down menu on the scores page is different than the menu on each boxscore page? While inconsistent (or even sloppy), I think the AAC has bigger issues to be concerned about.

In one season, yes. 8 in a row from end of 1984 to start of 1985.
