Thoughts on the broadcast

Postby docabel » Mon Sep 07, 2020 11:07 am

Seeing that we were the only game going at the middle of the day on ESPN, really thought we would get more than the espn ocho crew.

1. During the first quarter, the graphics for the score had us listed as the SMU Broncos?

2. The cameraman got fooled on more fakes than a fourth string LB defending the triple option.

3. Replays. Seemed to just gloss over and move on at some critical junctures. For instance, in the 4th quarter we had a turnover overturned by an offsides (Coxe I think), but never got to see a replay of it.

Happy to get the win, but just needed to vent.

Agree completely, but if it helps, Coxe was about one mile offsides...

I too was very disappointed on Saturday. Seeing as there were no P5 games I thought we would get some good coverage on Game Day....nope. Barely mentioned until the last five minutes...just the "picks" segment. Aresco needs to make a call to ESPN.

It was sloppy football; not a bad thing if not too many witnessed that showing. Our guys will (hopefully) get a lot better as the season goes on
