I was doing a deep dive on Wikipedia this morning and came across the 1993 Auburn Tiger football team. They were on probation but the part that really caught my attention was that they were banned from being on TV. So that means even the iron bowl with Alabama was not aired on television except for closed circuit TV at the stadium.

Could such a ban even exist today? I don’t think TV executives would be very keen on not being able to air big rivalry games or other conference matchups.

Or could it definitely be a thing that happens and I’m just not looking at it correctly? I’ll take your answers off the air.
