ESPN mistakenly previews Mississippi State against Michigan in the Outback Bowl. Apparently, Michigan will have a hard time stopping Mississippi State RB Aeris Williams.

I guess the Outback boycotts in EL worked if MSU is in the Outback Bowl now....

It's a beautiful day for a ballgame. Let's play two!

That's what happens when you lay off all of your good talent and all that's left are the loudmouthed blowhards who define news as inviting LaVar Ball onto the set and getting into pissing matches with him.
Used to love ESPN. Loved getting up early every morning and watching the highlights before work. Especially Top 10 and Not Top 10. Now aside from the actual games themselves, there is nothing even remotely appealing about ESPN anymore.

After seeing what happened to their rival, Mississippi State wants no part of Michigan.
If we play them, half their players will defect to Michigan before the team bus even leaves the stadium.

What this says to me is that after two sizeable rounds of staffing reductions, someone mistakenly let go of a few too many fact checkers and story editors. I can only imagine how many errors will eventually slip into ESPN programming that are this glaring, never mind the more notable ones we've seen already lately.

How do you make such a mistake? How do you have so many people not know the correct teams that are playing and stop the mistake before you air it? We live in a age where facts no longer matter.

You just know Dantoni'o is asking himself how he can convince ESPN to break down the Holiday Bowl between Washington State and Iowa.
December 11th, 2017 at 9:12 AM ^
Oh man, the game is airing on ESPN as well. I hope they get cameras to the correct stadium.

Seems like the guy doing the commentary/voiceover would know better even if the production person didn't. Is that Booger McFarland? Can't tell who because I only watch ESPN for games. Dude went to LSU so if so kinda pathetic.
December 11th, 2017 at 12:13 PM ^
That did not sound like McFarland to me. He's on the radio quite frequently and his voice is pretty distinct.

Listening to Tebow on that special was the WORST! I'll take Matt Millen and Pam Ward for the rest of my life over that toxic shitstorm!!!

IMMEDIATELY
Mods, pls ban this fuckstain.

This is really despicable. Get a fucking life.
EDIT: user has been appropriately banned. Darkstar, your comment was not depsicable and you do not need to get a fucking life.

WTF did I miss?

"JK Dobbins gave them problems.." Dude had 60 yards on 13 carries until their garbage time drive. So they preview the wrong damn team and their analysis consists of a quick glance at the box score. Dynamite job.
December 11th, 2017 at 10:29 AM ^
On the bright side, they did save money by using the Good Morning America intern for this.
December 11th, 2017 at 12:20 PM ^
It's interesting because they got the graphic overlay right (UM v SC), but then got the highlights wrong and the analysis wrong.
Highlights/overlay I can forgive. Screwing up the analysis is awful because it suggests you're just mailing it in...

ESPN has Bosa at the top of this list of 8 returning players to watch for the 2018 Heisman.

December 11th, 2017 at 4:32 PM ^
Lets place bets, who will last longer: Bosa in the Heisman hunt or ESPN?
December 11th, 2017 at 12:31 PM ^
as if we're in a Vonnegut novel -
I'm hoping RichRod can get the team up for MSU.
December 11th, 2017 at 2:55 PM ^
ESPN is so bad...SC6 is so bad. I just want a normal sportscenter with highlights back. SC6 is unwwatchable, the anchors need to go and whoever kept them on the air needs to go. Awful.
