In this episode of First and XII, we expose how media bias—especially from ESPN—shapes the college football landscape through flawed metrics like the FPI (Football Power Index). We dig into how the SEC benefits from inflated rankings, while conferences like the Big 12, ACC, and others are consistently undervalued. Is it analysis or just narrative control? We break down how this media favoritism impacts rankings, playoff seeding, and the national conversation.
