I'm not sure which I love more....the PbP guy that keeps saying "Amstootz" or the color guy that let out the righteous belch just before the break.

I've heard toilets flush with more coherency than these two.

I thought he was pronouncing it wrong. Wouldn't it be nice if for once we had a good crew calling a game?

I think they may have just took the guy sitting the the last row and put a head set on him.....

I missed the kickoff, is the color commentator Shaun King?

Yes.

How about the announcer pronouncing PJ Mahone 'mahoNEE' like he just stepped off the boat from Sicily right after he declared how "unfortunate" his last interception was.

Still, less BCS filler material than I expected considering the margin, and Shaun King said "Bowling Green is a better football team" enough to keep me from throwing my shoe at the screen.

Personally, I thought the play by play guy was absolutely pathetic... and at one point in this admittedly one sided game...these guys totally MISSED making at least a comment on what was happening on the field for FOUR consecutive plays while they discussed their weak views on the B-S etc. (and yes, the C WAS deliberately left out)

No wonder the BSU "fan"/columnist called ESPN the devil etc. A brief discussion would've been OK to me, but at least NOTICE what the heck's going on in the game you're SUPPOSED to be "announcing". :evil:

i'm glad other people noticed it.  I guess it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize how bad the commentary was.  but, i honestly think i could have done a better job calling that game.  i turned the volume off after a while, or was forced to switch back to the arkansas game.Hey, we won. :)   I lit a sparkler in celebration.  whoopedety-doo!!

Happens all the time in non BS games on ESPN.
