ESPN SEC audio-visual scam

Puppy been following this ESPN-SEC courtesy reach-around for some time, but felt necessary to finally bring it to the table. Mostly because there's a prime example unfolding right before our pac12 eyes and ears.

ESPN pushes SEC crowd, band noise, along with the best lighting, videography, best angles, closeups etc...

The audio between espn pac12 games and SEC games is night and fucking day. Even the same time slots are strikingly different between both conferences.

The crowd-band audio is so obviously different. Pay attention you deaf blind fuckers, you'll notice. I get prime time vs 7:30, but even if times were flipflopped, the SEC game would have massive audio-visual ESECPN advantage @7:30 too. The band mic is as loud as pumped up crowd mic. Crowd mic is laughably enhanced.

listen-watch kentucky/auburn and stanford-ucla. Anything to give the SEC an advantage. Same people already led dipshits like purple to believe that the SEC has better players, better defenses, better stadiums, better tailgates, better conferences, better recruits (even though best players come from florida (not a SEC state), texas and California).

Oh, unranked and hapless Auburn will jump back in to top 20 with a hard faught win over the Kentucky hoops team. Just watch.

    Speaking of audio/visual..... Is the ESPN feed cutting out terribly with audio and visual like once a minute during this Auburn/Kentucky game?

    I watched and listened to Utah-Cal prime time ESPN. Sounded like a Lake Washington vs Mercer Island game. Embarrasing. Couldnt hear crowd, never heard the band and could hear players talking smack. SEC games you cant hear the commentators. Good thin brent turdburger took a job with SEC network, incidentally ruining his career

    Using artificial crowd noise to inflate the collective self-worth of a fanbase?

    Seriously, anyone out there experiencing the feed cutting out on this game?

    I wouldn't put it past them to do some of those things, but I haven't noticed it.
    There's also cBS' motto for the SEC: "The best games on the best network."

    Sure, maybe in 2010. The best conference didn't get any team past the semi-final last year.

    Okay on my end. Maybe Cox Cable isn't totally worthless.

    I've been in and out of the living room though.

    Yeah, the SEC crowds always seem to have a mic on them and a DJ playing with that crowd volume. A few of the biggest ACC games have been like this as well.
    There's what 50,000 Kentucky fans out there at best? Yeah...they're not going to be as loud without ESPN pushing that mic volume up.

    Stoops doesn't suck. The Kentucky program is a lot better under him.

    Edit: what a cluster fuck of a 4th down on the punt return. They only had 8 guys on the field. Surprised Malzan didn't just go for it with all the confusion.

    Its better than playing on root sports and watching 480p cameras that have Vaseline smeared on them while Jason Gesser and Angie Mandick talk.

    WTF do you know, no specific band audio, no crisp clear crowd channel, no pageantry and the commentators, they dominate the space. all Jessee Palmer's smug mug. Away from the NFL production. No close-up dynamic-angle video, for fuck sakes my view Is from the 300 level

    Kentucky fans > Stanford fans. Water is wet. Take the tin foil hat off. ESPN is making that shithole tin can stadium sound 10x louder than it is. I can hear what the stadium announcer is saying for christsake.

    Hey Lumpy, 2/3 > 1/3. Hint: I realize florida is in the sec but 2 other majors arent, hence not an 'SEC' state butterbutt

    As much as you may wish you were a man... you aren't in Texas, you're in Seattle. You're a 12. Sit down.

    Stanford Stadium should be one of the loudest in the conference. The bleachers there are noisy as hell and echo. Too bad they can only half fill it with awkward foreign exchange students.

    We (yes we) should take over that stadium next week.

    How the fuck can you expect a crew to provide top notch audio visual when they are that fucking elevation in Salt Lake City?!?!!?!!?

    Cant even hear crowd. Just davey and Yessie. Watch a few weekends of college football for shit sakes. For most of you pussies that'll be difficult as youre all forced to walk The Hill scene during the saturday channel 7 12:30 SEC game, or the ABC 12:30 Kick, maybe the 5pm RIGGED ESPN game and the plentiful 9 am big10 yawners. But try best you can. Then come on here and we'l l talk

    The crowd is harder to hear, but Stanfraud usually doesn't have a loud crowd.

    Should be a decent UW showing, Seattle plays SF the same week.

    The SEC uses referee channel, then kills noise at penalties. Same noise level. Listen when referee turns mic on. Thats what we here when we watch SEC games on espn. Puppy cracked the code; 09:20PST, 10-15-2015
