UM at Penn State - Penn State's Radio Call w/ video

I’m sorry but you want me to watch 28 minutes of highlights with commentary from Penn State’s radio guys? No thanks. 

I'm confident OP won't mind if you choose not to watch.

In any case, these sorts of overlays oftentimes provide interesting perspective and/or schadenfreude.

It's for the schadenfreude.

it's nice to hear from another prospective sometimes. 

Jesus Christ, get up on the wrong side of a nervous chicken this morning? 

These videos are a must watch for me every week. Hearing the pain in the announcers' voices is pure schadenfruede. 

feel free to not comment at all, then.

Yes! Because it's always hilarious when opponents' radio teams whine about the officiating and get sad. The IU guys and Purdue were extra salty. Also, are you ok or are you always such a Debbie Downer? 

The one for the Purdue game was eminently listenable.  The announcers in that case seemed to have prepared well and were very respectful--unlike the horrid MSU announcers.

I look forward to these and will give it a listen.

Sounds like you listened to the first minute, got pissed off over nothing, and dropped this gem of a comment. I've watched every one of these this season, and they're almost always fun. The only one I had trouble getting through was MSU for obvious, Blaha-related reasons. But otherwise it's part schadenfreude, part new perspective, and part I just love watching this team play. It's almost like watching a reaction video for something you've already seen/heard. It's validation that even someone reacting in real time is seeing what you're seeing. Am very grateful for this series on youtube, am subbed to OP, and will continue watching. If you don't like it, feel free to not follow suit.

Are you stealing signs?

When you watch the replay, there are 2 calls that they might have a point . . . a missed hold on our WR blocking, and the PI on JJs only pass of the 2nd half.

But those calls turned out to be immaterial.  We only got a FG after the fist call which we would have gotten anyway, and we punted after the 2nd call anyway.

The ref's did not cost either Michigan nor Penn State the game.

The SiriusXM app, along with the Varsity Network app, allow you to get the Michigan feed. Of course, if you didn't have cell signal, that might not have helped you. :)

I don't much care for Michigan's radio guys, but they're still a lot better than having to listen to the opposition's. :)

I'm guessing they didn't have a whole lot to say on Allar's TD when Mason Graham got tackled.

But, the MSU one was hilarious. Every time M hit a big play, the color guy would mutter, "oh god..." And every time they whined about a call on the field or a missed play, the replay would show how wrong they were. It was very entertaining.

EDIT: double post.

Main guy has more energy on a Michigan TD than Karsch 

SiriusXM has an NFL channel --- on Sundays, they "whip around" to the various games, using the radio crew for whatever team has the ball.

It's kind of fascinating --- instead of just ONE biased radio crew, you get to listen to TWELVE of them!  For whatever reason, it seems NFL radio guys tend to be pretty big homers.

Ufer WAS actually calling what he saw with his eyes, it's the Ref's who screwed the spots. 

Look at Roman Wilsons catch last year in the Fiesta Bowl, every player, coach, spectator, announcer, and tv viewer saw that was a touchdown, but noooooo some ref says down at the 1 foot mark, bullshit.

Usually there's some home field advantage to the spots, but I feel we get hosed more often that not.

Ufer would add a yard or two to every gain we'd make

On a number of occasions over the past few years WTKA has re-broadcast during bye weeks a 1970s Michigan game that Ufer called. Since I know the outcome of the games I've been able to listen more dispassionately and analytically than I could when I was listening to them live.

I've been struck by how often Ufer does a pretty poor job of describing the specifics of the action as it happens—frequently you don't know what exactly has happened on a play while Ufer is yelling about George Patton and Ricky the Peach and Johnny Wangler. The enthusiasm with which he called the game was great when I was listening as an undergrad, but IMHO his successor Frank Beckmann was a vastly better play-by-play announcer.

I think that’s actually a gal who does those.  There was (and maybe still is but I haven’t been there in so long) a frequent poster on the Rivals board who went by the same screen name.  She’d also do a nice preview of the opposing team, prior to football Saturday.  

Literally the only nice thing I have to say about OSU is that their announcing team is absolutely top notch. Our broadcast team is nowhere near as good.
