Last evening I went to ESPN's website and noted that both SDSU and NDSU were listed under the Great West Football Conference and not the Missouri Valley FC. I think the schedules listed for each school were correct. SDSU and NDSU were not listed under the Missouri Valley Football Conference. I sent an e-mail pointing out the error to ESPN.
This morning I received a nice note from a representative of ESPN, politely tell me: "As per the link below please note that South Dakota State University and North Dakota State University are new members of the Great West Football Conference for the 2008 season:..." The link was to an AP story, reprinted on ESPN's site, stating USD and UND were new members of the Great West. The e-mail provided a phone number just in case I had other questions.
I sent another e-mail to ESPN, politely pointing out again that both SDSU and NDSU were in the Missouri Valley, not the Great West. I suggested they check the link provided to me because the linked story was accurate. I followed the e-mail with a call to ESPN where I talked to a representative who understood the problem and said he'd contact the right people and make the correction.
I'll take a look at the ESPN site in a day or two to see if the correction was made.
