I realize TWC picked up a UTEP broadcast, but these idiots make the announcers at A&M and UT sound unbiased. My god, do they have pom-poms attached to their microphones?

I'm getting more than a little tired of watching the Defense posters go up on the screen between every play! I have turned off the sound on the TV and am listening to the broadcast on 570.

Yes. Thanks for asking.

The difference is that when Craig Swann did it, it was OK, because it was for SMU.

The other difference is that even when Craig Swann did it, it wasn't this blatant (read: nauseating).

What you have to remember is that the audio is from the radio play-by-play guy's for UTEP. It would be the same if it were [deleted] Hix (Rich Phillips) and John Hampton. Thus the cheerleading.

Whatever — it's awful.

Nice of them to show the replay of the third-down play to Darius Johnson instead of the fourth-down throw to Beasley.

what was worse, SMU's performance or the UTEP announcers?

Worst announcers i think i've ever heard.

UTEP announcers. We stunk up the joint, but they were worse ... EASILY.

They were flat-out brutal.

At this point, we have much bigger worries than their announcer's. Our suddenly passive defense comes to the top of my mind. :(

Of course we have bigger worries. But it was asked which was worse...

Not sure why anyone even bothered listening to that garbage.

Pretty much impossible to get The Ticket audio and All Access video synched up. Sometimes they are out of synch by a full play or more.
