    Now, if they don't send anyone to the game, this "protest" will have some teeth. Otherwise, a late -- very late -- attempt to save face within the industry.

    I would stand and cheer if the News-Sentinel didn't send a single reporter to the Alabama game...

    That's not happening though...

    I still say get the reporter a credential through the Alabama SID office.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't Alabama have to submit its list to Tennessee, which would then deny the credential anyway?

    The problem with that course of action is that you'd be punishing your readers for your own squabble, and they'd see it that way, too.

    Great post, Mizzou. In a way, it's much easier dealing with small schools in this way because they want the coverage so much that they'll grant access that you can't get at a BCS-level institution.
