I don’t care for the drum thing at the beginning, it seems contrived, but the broadcast crew of Blackledge/Eagle is so much better than Herbstreit/Fowler. It’s not even close.

Blackledge and MRob. We Are … TV U!
It was weird seeing MRob hyping up WISKY.
before the opening kickoff. Just doing his job. Or he hates us.

No way. I know you were joking but recall MRobs funeral speech.Blackledge and MRob. We Are … TV U!

I like the NBC crew but Herbie and Fowler are damn good as well.
Their field mics are way too low, all of their games sound like they are being played at church and not in a rowdy college football stadium.
Someone needs to serve Herbstreit a steaming hot cup of STFU
The same guy that is hyping up our crowd and student section constantly? I think he has a genuine respect for PSU and enjoys coming to our games.
I agree with that assessment of Herbstreit. He will pick PSU opponents to win, but I do not think he is disrespectful and do think he loves the PSU game environment.
I don't deny any of that. But he talks to much during a broadcast. Blackledge lets you take in the crowd and the atmosphere
That's fine, but his broadcasting is too much. It's like we can't have a second of silence, constant chatter about the same stuff he chattered about 5 plays earlier.
There was one time Herbstreit was quite, it was when Grant Haley crossed the goal line. Seemed like a minute of silence which allowed viewers to process what they just saw. Of course, I don't think he meant to be quiet, he was shell shocked at what happened.
Fair enough. I have the same feeling about Romo. I like his analysis, he just doesn’t know when take a breath and let the game play out. I get it.
I like Herbie and Fowler more. Blackledge is just glum. Eagle has a great voice though. He looks like a troll though.
I like Herbie and Fowler as well. Not more, but equal. I miss Ron Franklin. I thought he was a good play by play guy.
I thought commercial breaks were actually more lengthy on NBC over FOX and that’s saying something.
They did miss the ref tell Wisky coaches the foul was actually on 45 and not the one called the announced number they were complaining about…

The cameras caught the ref telling Wisconsin that it was on 38 (which was what they announced).
But I agree that they had to be calling it on 45.
Actually the Washington game probably will be on FOX.
(but at night, NBC and FOX are switching time slots that day)
Interesting they didn't decide yet. I think we've know it was going to be either 3:30 or 8 since the start of the season when it was announced as the Whiteout. Franklin and Kraft essentially confirmed, if you read between the lines, that they had been talking to the networks about possible start times when selecting the white out game so it was a given this one would be at worst an afternoon kick.
My guess is that if we lose and Indiana wins, they might choose that one for the night game. Otherwise, we'd get it. But that's also assuming that the 8pm game gets the first choice.
I actually think if we win we will likely get 3:30 and if we lose then go to 8 PM. That's just based on a personal guess that CBS has first choice for November 9.
Bernie is an out and out OSU shrill. Any hyping of PSU is all designed to enhance OSU if they win.
The clocks change after the game...extra hour to party after the win that night!!!
Clocks change this weekend. Extra hour to party after beating OSU!! That sounds good too.
On what network? BTN is booked at 7, NBC has ND/FSU at 730, ESPN has a game at 10pm, ABC has an SEC game at 730, the only opening is CBS at 330, I don’t think they do night games. I got a beer says it will be 330, by halftime it will be a night game anyway…. But Fox is still a possibility

This is why I do not bet. Go with 3:30 if that make you happy.
I won’t be at the game… hunting all day so 330 would actually work better for me…

If it were not dependent on the game results then it would have already been announced.
