The biggest downside to going with the cord-cutting route is that whatever I use to watch live TV on my Roku--Sling TV, or in this case WatchESPN--I'm always 20 seconds behind.

Ahh, I've wondered about that.  Interesting.

It's only annoying if I'm following along here, or on Twitter, or somewhere else where there can be near-instantaneous posting and thus spoiling. Otherwise, there isn't much downside.

I'm sure plenty of people are disappointed in the lack of scoring, but I don't mind it at all.

Nothing better than seeing Alabama get mauled. ToP was heavily in Georgia's favor, and they've neutralized Hurts on the ground for the most part. Fromm and the coaching staff did an excellent job adjusting to Alabama's early pressure, which was consistently getting home. They've spread it out, gone West coast, utilized the HB pitch and made them pay.

Freshman Riley Ridley showing up his stud future pro brother Calvin Ridley in the 1st half is just great sports.

All that, but anything can happen with another half to go.

You'll get used to it.  I only check twitter during the breaks.  It actually helps at the end of O's games.

Can't believe how limited Alabama has looked offensively.

 

I get that UGA has an unreal defense, but wow.

Most were on the one carry.

Bama has done nothing in this game. That one Hurts run is about 1/3 of their offense tonight.

Eventually the CFB Title game will end at 3 am on the East Coast.

I fully expect the bands to start playing off each team's drives by the mid-third quarter.
