The Original Michigan Monday: Hates Commercials

College Football has a problem and its the in game commercials. It's slowly killing the sport that we love. The NFL realized this a couple of years ago and if you watch a full game the commercials are reduced and made up between quarters, etc. They also have the hugely successful Red Zone which has zero commercials between 1:00 and 8:00 PM.

Fox and NBC are the worst during college football, but ESPN isn't afraid to give you commercials during a short injury timeout. I understand these networks pay huge dollars to get these games, but there has to be some type of middle ground so you don't Geico and Burger Kinged to death.
