Anyone else think the announcing is awful?

I normally don't care unless it's Pam Ward or whatever her name is, but this is bad. I love Brian, but damn my dude just isn't good at this. Levy is trash. They both say things that make no sense and they are very late in knowing what the fuck is going on. Levy has said 3-4 different Maryland guys are "This is their leader on defense" Awful man, how can this be that hard. Also Fuck Meyer. What a slimy fuck to watch on the halftime show on Fox. Anyone more fake than that dude? Fuck frost too, Go Purdue.

I miss Spielman. Too many announcers try to build a narrative instead of calling the game as is.

Who's Drew Wilson? wow. 

Also anyone see think the line judge is spotting us a half a foot back any opportunity he can?

Harbaugh furious at the team and wants them to play like it’s 0-0. Come out and do nothing but run up the middle. Genius. Complete diversion from Jim. Make the opposing team think you’ll actually throw a downfield pass. 
 

wrong thread. Neg me

The directing has been even worse, which I'm guessing is part of the problem for Levy and Griese. This group has looked like they got together this morning and are just making it up as they go along.

What is awful are hot take threads when there is a clearly-labeled game thread, in which your hot take can be posted.

I know announcers are supposed to make their game sound competitive, but Levy really was going overboard in the first half with all his talk about TOP and "Maryland domination" when the score was 21-0.  

I also dislike when they show stats from an unfinished game and compare them to finished-game stats.  Yeah, we had fewer rushing yards in two quarters against Maryland than we did in the last three full games.

I get that there are good announcers, and then there are good "personalities" to stick in front of a camera, what I don't understand is how there are people who have no personality, and know absolutely nothing about football, yet get paid large amounts of actual money to announce football games.
