Kind of patronizing, really; the Samford/FSU game is mentioned due to FSU's new coach; and UM/EWU only because of EWU's new field (which, I will admit, I'm looking forward to seeing in person).

But unless they're playing Notre Dame you won't see them on NBC.

A shame that NBC gutted its sports division. There was a time when NBC was at the top of televised sports, between the MLB Game of the Week, All-Star game, and World Series, the AFC games, the NBA, the NHL (when people cared), and an extensive golf package. Now it's the overhyped Olympics and three horse races a year.

Nice to at least see 3 FCS teams mentioned. Looks like they put Notre Dame's entire schedule on there...

NBC Sports died when Michael Jordan retired. Their coverage of the NBA was legendary. The theme song still gives me chills: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UooitEU6AtE

People love to hate on Costas, but his intros were awesome:
