Spring Game TV Replay Open Thread
Well, whether you're watching it for the first time, reliving it from earlier in person or on the Net, or it's just the first of 20 times you're going to watch it (Brian, that means you), we can hash out what happened with a clearer and warmer view. Did what we thought we saw still hold true? Can we find out anything different?
Those who haven't seen the game can decide if the thread should be spoiler free. But I'm guessing if you're on here you've been taking in every soundbite from Brian and the boards.
And while we wait...Michigan Softball on BTN. 8-2 good girls, top of 4th, vs. dreaded Northwestern.
Edit: And just as I hit save, 8-5...sonofva....
You don't want to know.
Do they have one fucking camera here?

The NCAA doesn't allow fucking cameras anymore, as it considers fucking to be unsportsmanlike conduct.
I didn't want to see the results of these kicks anyway.
EDIT: the camera angle is matched only by the insightful analysis, which taught me that "as a kicker, your job is just to kick the ball."
... who looked like Big Papi could punt better than our guys.
We need Will H., stat!
These camera angles are quite strange to say the least.
Also, I understand this is the spring game and there's a sponsor and all that, but... Definitely don't like these amateurish PNC signs in the corners of the end zone. At all.
BTN really outdid themselves...
is why Monopolies do not benefit the general public.
For reminding me I should be studying for my econ exam on tuesday
haha. Exactly what I was thinking.

same here
Do kickers/punters go through the same conditioning as the other players or does Barwis develop a special type of torture for them?
... frickin' Nick Saban was walking around the field in Tuscaloosa for the Alabama spring game before 91,023 fans, live on ESPN in hi-def with a goddam skycam.
He's a massive asshole and a hell of a coach; thank god he left E. Lansing along on the charter aircraft.
Ask not what your holder can do for you...
"jack kennedy is on the outside looking in for the QB job"
actually #30, Doug Rogan.
The announcer actually just said "for all intensive purposes".
Glad someone else caught that.
Oh boy here comes the punts. I think I will change the channel
EDIT: nvm
Are the special ed kids in the orange helmets?
on punt return:
No the special ed kids are in the broadcast booth.
here's where it got ugly
This is sad to be honest.
If so I'm on tv during the kicking! Whoo Hooo!
I'm the blue dot in the middle left of 18...
Assume that all have a 5.0 hang time and net of 55 yards. The cameras can't pan out that far.
You said "cameras." Plural.
There seems to be only one camera, which was conveniently placed on top of Pioneer High.
good catch, i am glad to see the camera is showing the receivers catching the ball and not just Denard throwing.
Here we go! The good stuff
I like.
definitely looks like a keeper. The whole line looks, uh, bulkier, that should be a plus in the running game.
Is there someone doing play-by-play over the PA system? Who is it? If Shep and Campbell would shut up for about 5 seconds I would be able to answer this question myself...
Beckman and Brandstatter. They would not shut up. All forms of commentary for this game were absolutely atrocious.
... can you wait until RR gives Denard the entire offense?
It's Beckmann and Brandstatter
that's a ball Denard would have run last year. Me gusta.
Brandy and Beckman
Just as an FYI, for those who were unable to attend the game, Lewan was a beast.
I remember on one run by Denard he was down field, looking for someone to block, and he finds a guy and just destroys him, creating open space for Denard.
Hopefully that type of nastiness carries over to the regular season.
Guaranteed lock to start at right tackle this year. This kid takes every play as an opportunity to kick someone ass into the ground, then stomp on their limp, lifeless body.
He is going to be special.
I think he will be at left tackle
Interesting that Tae Odoms was playing outside receiver today.
drink
Add some awesome tattoos on Lewan's triceps and some more lbs, we have Jake Long Jr.
Robinson handled the offense very nice.

More please.
I can't wait to move just over the border into PA in two weeks (in MD now). BTN on basic cable will be worth the move by itself.
Also, isn't that Tate in on the last scoring play?
April 17th, 2010 at 11:26 PM ^
The only time I've ever seen that is on OSU message boards.
