    Last night at the opening preseason game at the new Levi Stadium in San Francisco there were ads in the red zones projected onto local viewers TV screens. The Toyota Red Zone. Will college football pass on this new source of revenue?

The McDonald's 40! The Geico 30! The AT&T 20! To the Best Buy 10 yard line and into the Chase Bank End Zone!

    I'd like to thank all my teammates on the Exxon-Mobil LSU Tigers and especially the blockers on the Valvoline Offensive Line and to Nike for providing the shoes that make me run so fast and to Red Bull for keeping the team energized

    Lord I hope not! I was always hoping the sportswriters would use the sponsors name when stadiums first started using them. I never did.

    On the radio whenever LSU gets inside the 20 Jim Hawthorne mentions The Capitol One Redzone.

    Anyone watch the Saints on CST tonight? The red zone is the "Slap Ya Mama Red Zone," and while mentioning the sponsor, the turf in the red zone turns red. It hurts the eyes.
