Paul Finebaum calls out Oklahoma AD Roger Denny for ‘pandering’ after Ole Miss game move

Paul Finebaum criticized Oklahoma athletic director Roger Denny for appearing to "pander" to his fan base after the SEC moved the Sooners' game against the Ole Miss Rebels to Sunday. After Denny publicly objected to the decision, Finebaum defended SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey and questioned Denny's judgment.
