FC/OT: ESPN SEC Bias?
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
I believe PSU is in the top 10. PSU is in the above 1 billion estimate club according to an article I read yesterday. You have to take these numbers with a grain of salt.
What's missing? That Paul Finebaum counts as good as his football knowledge, or lack of football knowledge. He also forgot number 13, and 15 through 18. Must have been former PAC 10 teams.....
PSU isn’t dropping $700 MM for the stadium. They are relying heavily on donations and will also turn to interest-bearing loans. The athletic department isn’t flush with $700 MM to dump into the stadium.
I understand. I was simply pointing out that another team ahead of us was left out as well and since ND isn't affiliated with ESPN it's probably them at #5.
I posted this on Ro's PSU A- grade thread. It was in a recent WSJ article. Here you go.

Paul Finebaum fits in the SEC. He’s just another dick with ears.
