ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit is starting the preseason with a bang on Twitter.
The respected college football analyst took to social media Monday to dispel the ongoing SEC bias narrative, citing his employer’s live coverage of fall practice at defending champion Ohio State, his alma-mater:
I thought @espn only cared about the SEC?? Weird their first day of camp coverage is at Ohio St.?! 😉. So much for that tired conspiracy!

Can you imagine if the B1G won SEVEN straight National Titles the amount of coverage the B1G would receive?! https://t.co/8kftH8qvIw

Again-Obviously-That's why the SEC received so much coverage from 06-12. They won 7 straight titles. That's my point https://t.co/4NwDFMZstA

No, just think people need to recognize Natl coverage is directly related to winning. That's why OSU everywhere now https://t.co/xXj4PcTksw
