How can that happen ? An entire technical crew should be fired . Yeah We are getting killed but it feels like ESPN just 4 days ago , screw you we ain’t showing it .. it’s 2025 and you lose a game with the #1 ranked team in the NCAA ? Unbelievable!
2025 and ABC loses a broadcast with 8/9 minutes to go in a half

Putrid and why I hated the move from Sankey to go all in with ESPN/ABC. The FB coverage is slapdick level compared to CBS and in basketball they are embarrassingly produced where CBS outclasses them again.
ABC wanted to get to the start of that exciting hockey game.
They were sure this game was over and they decided to play the ratings card.

ABC's generator caught on fire, leading to outage during Kentucky vs. Auburn
The generator for ABC's broadcast truck caught on fire during Kentucky vs. Auburn, leading to the outage that cause fans to miss the final 12 minutes of the game.
They should have some type of backup using web streaming technologies. Hell, put a starlink on top the truck.
billy from KSR let it slip that there was a fire in or near the truck EDIT: I see now it was the generator
ESPNNEWS had a feed with a minute or so left, which seems bizarre

Stop complaining, they did you a favor
Sankey screwed the pooch. CBS >>>>>>>>ESPN
This. CBS is the absolute best there is at college basketball and football. I've said it on here for years. ABC coverage is such a mid sports coverage channel.
Yes he does and I do too.
Absolutely. The CBS broadcasts are SO much better done …and in both basketball and football. Not even close.
It’s a bloody shame that it’s no longer the SEC network.

Which one of y’all got so mad you set the generator on fire? Be honest.
Sankey is hot garbage for this contract. He doesn't get nearly the $$$ that Big Ten does and now we're all stuck with their awful basketball being showcased. Throw in the fact that ESPN went out of their way to **** over the league come CFB Playoff time--hyping up the dog crap ACC and he has become a cuckold. He should be threatened with his job if he doesn't get this fixed within the next 4 months. ESPN/ABC sucks.
You have the #1 team in the country in a game important enough that they put it on ABC and the feed gives out with 11 minutes left-and 4/5 mins go by without any explaining of WTF is going on? Hell they took us to ESPN's KU-Texas Tech Halftime coverage. It sure felt like they wanted to appease the NHL coverage as they once again didn't time out the telecast/programming. The production/running of their product is beyond awful. Know we've got UK interest, but think of that from a Commissioner's POV. Greg Sankey is being shoved in a closet and being told it's a penthouse suite and learn to like it.
ESPN issues apology for outage on ABC broadcast, reveals reason for disruption in Kentucky vs. Auburn
ESPN has issued an apology following the technical difficulties that cut short the ABC broadcast of No. 1 Auburn at No. 17 Kentucky.
“In a freak accident, a generator at Rupp Arena caught on fire causing us to lose power and be knocked off the air as a result,”
-Alright, which one of you did this so the Auburn fans couldn't see their win 🤣 🤣 Bravo, bravo.

ESPN needs to get their shit together. They should have contingencies if they lose signal. Every teenager knows how to stream with their phone yet a single generator knocked out their national coverage. Get a starlink and sit it on top of Rupp, problem solved.
