What is the best sports bar in the downtown Chicago area?

I am looking for a downtown Chicago bar/grill to watch college football during my visit, with places close to the El a plus. What sets this bar apart from others?

**Specifically looking for personal recommendations, something that cannot be found on the Internet**
Tip for best answer: M$0.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Still Mother Hubards on State and Hubbard after all these years. We went there in early 90s and it is still the Sports Center of Downtown Chicago. Let the tourists go to ESPN and Harry Carays. The rest of us are at Mohos.
20 or more draft brews and great Burgere & Ribs

I think this will really depend on what else you are looking for in a bar. Do you want the largest selection of drinks? A large option for food? Lots of TVs?

The best all around option, at least in my mind, would be ESPN Zone on East Ohio... several options can be found in the sources I have included.

Not one of the places listed are anywhere near Downtown.
Mostly 3 or 4 miles North . One on South Halsted.
