Before the season, there were plenty of questions about how SEC fans would find their favorite team on TV. We now can see the complete picture of Year 1 of the SEC's record 15-year contracts with ESPN and CBS.

There were a variety of media platforms. But the most widely-distributed for the SEC are CBS, ESPN and ESPN2. Consider them the Big Three for the conference. They're the channels where the most eyeballs are watching college football across the country (along with ABC, a sister company of ESPN).

Kentucky, which has beaten Georgia and Auburn, got the shortest end of the stick for a team that's done well in 2009. What the Wildcats suffer in football exposure they make up with basketball exposure. Still, Rich Brooks must feel like the Rodney Dangerfield of the SEC. Where's the respect?

SEC Appearances on CBS, ESPN, ESPN2

Florida (11-0): 9 appearances

Alabama (11-0): 7 appearances

LSU (8-3): 7 appearances

South Carolina (6-5): 7 appearances

Georgia (6-5): 7 appearances

Auburn (7-4): 6 appearances

Tennessee (6-5): 6 appearances

Arkansas (7-4): 5 appearances

Ole Miss (8-3): 5 appearances

Kentucky (7-4): 2 appearances

Mississippi State (4-7): 2 appearances

Vanderbilt (2-10): 1 appearance

Here is the breakdown of TV appearances per media platform. These numbers won't add up to 12 TV appearances per school because teams often appear on more than one platform, such as ESPN and ESPN360.com.
