I noticed "The Game" as well. They even had The Game graphics when going to commercial break. Stupid branding stuff. Also noticed ESPN did the exact same with trying to brand UF/FSU as The Rivalry.
I wonder if A&M already informally has a replacement. Not that it would be surprising if they blundered their way through a coaching search and ended up with someone shitty.
USC returned Ellis and Johnson and added Collier. We could definitely use another experienced guard but also should still be good this season without one imo.
