BCS Championship
2 Points:
1) After watching the first half, anyone else want to see what USC or Texas would do against these teams? The defenses are playing well, but I'd like USC against either of these teams right now.
2) The quality of announcing is awful beyond what I thought possible. Inaccurate and poorly timed comments. They didn't even know what down it was on the first huge goal line stand by Florida. Somehow, they made that monumental stop seem like an everyday play. The ESPN guys aren't perfect, but Musberger or Fowler would have brought out the magnitude of that situation. It really sucks to have the biggest games of the year on Fox.

Brent is the worst -- self-important, steps all over the color guy, annoying voice and shouts too much. Bring back Keith Jackson or resurrect Bill Flemming!

Not Keith Jackson. I love the guy, but he was approaching Harry Caray levels of incompetence by his last couple of years. He was great 15 years ago, but really slipped toward the end.

YOU ARRRREE LOOKING LIIIIIVVVVVEEEE!

Uh ... Musberger tries to make EVERY play seem huge, and he also tries to make himself seem important to the game. I don't think he's actually much better than the Fox guys.

Lets not kid ourselves, anyone could do better than the Fox guys.

I like Brad Nessler the best. He's able to convey his excitement while still being professional.

I think the announcers are below average. The game is competitive. I don't like blowouts.(unless M is crushing skulls) And I like it when teams play offense AND defense. I really hope OU pulls it out. I really do not like florida schools much.

I thought by now I would be able to decide who I preferred to win. But honestly I still hate both of these teams too much to decide.

So, how many college football game does fox televise??
How many games have these idiots announced??
January 8th, 2009 at 10:10 PM ^
when ESPN gets the BCS rights and these FOX clowns have nothing to do with these games.
Fox can go back to the days of just televising the Cotton Bowl.

Just watched the OU marching band butcher "Pinball Wizard," a Michigan Marching Band mainstay for many years. It sounded awful and was way too slow.
Makes me miss football season already.
