How about those announcers Saturday?

Man, the color commentary really wasn't too bad, and sometimes the play-by-play was alright, but there were so many bloody mistakes.

1.) Continuous mention of Marcus Purify.... :w00t

2.) Menelik Holt with his #18 is actually Maurice Purify (brother to Marcus) in disguise.

3.) They apparently interviewed Bo Ruud on the sidelines during one of the defensive series.

4.) Insert a million other mistakes here.

At least they didn't mistake Dan Erickson for Todd Peterson ala Fowler during the A&M game last year.

And in their defence I really liked their discussion of the differences between Ganz and Keller's throwing styles.

 
I have Hd and that was the BEST picture I have got all season. The announcers did screw up a lot but were over all solid.

Thought the announcers were okay at best. As for the picture quality -- might have been good, but they kept going with a wide angle shot and doing a zoom in as the play started -- many times with the camera off-center. ..just terrible play coverage.

 
I didn't watch the game on TV, but I heard the coverage was absolute GARBAGE!

If that means it was worse than FSN, then I hope we never play on that channel ever again.

 
It was undoubtedly considerably worse than FSN.

Their camera work, now that I think about it, was just plain goofy. Kickoffs were filmed from the end zone that the ball was traveling towards, and once the returner caught it the sideline camera was zoomed in so far it was nearly impossible to see holes and/or players on the return. The normal play by play camera work was better, but still pretty mediocre.

 
They could have played the game inside an ant farm, and it would have been better than Super Bowl style coverage and getting beat by 6 td's. We won damnit! By the way, the director was BC's cousin.
