This just in...ABC sucks

[SoonerLaw09]

Oh man, that TV coverage was teh crapp. I counted at least a dozen plays they missed because they were showing some graphic or sideline shot and just basically farting around.

And Ron Franklin must be taken out and shot. No PBP skillz and he has this annoying tendency to repeat himself ad nauseum. Mushberger is preferable to him.

THAT'S CRAZY ! [hairGel]

[bluedogok]

Better than no game on TV at all which I remember a few OU-Baylor games not that long ago which fell into that category.

U jus now figrin this out!! :D

[SunnySooner]

This has been an ongoing problem--replays don't fit in a hurry-up offense.

[SanDiegoSoonerGal]

Mr. Gal pointed out how many times he said the OU defender tipped the pass away from the receiver at the last second. Like when else is he going to tip it away, while it's airborne?

[Petro-Sooner]

I'll take them over FSW any day.

Best post-game I've seen so far but I wasn't listening to them. Great shots of the campus and when that little girl was picking up those crimson & cream pom-poms and putting them in her dad's lap, I switched the main video feed over from the Prez-cup and was thinking, that's Sooner football. I don't give a d&^% if we win by one point if all the kids at the game left that happy then it was a successful day.

More to do with our hurry up offense than ABC's coverage.

[rainiersooner]

My favorite gems were:

1. Texas has won four of the last five against OU (incorrect, three of the last four; or three of the last five; or, even, three of the last six...or nine).

2. OU has no depth on its defensive line (of our many problems, this is not one).

I didn't understand this one either. We rotate in D linemen like sharks teeth.

[SoonerLaw09]

Yeah there were some nice campus shots, etc. But the commentary ruined it. He can't even read a nice bit about the Cowboy Hall of Fame (or Western Heritage Museum) without, well, forgetting to actually give the name of what it was that he was talking about!!!!

sheesh. :mad:

[jkjsooner]

ABC is a lot better than FSN. The guys at FSN have to show a replay and/or a crowd shot of wierdos after every play and they end up missing almost half of the plays.

Complain all you want but I told my wife today, "At least we're seeing most of the plays."

The director needs to realize going in that we run a hurry up offense and prepare accordingly.

I liked when he commented on Beal having been the BIG 10 player of the week last week.:eek:

I thought maybe I missed the beginning of that piece becuse his spiel seemed to come out of nowhere about the CHOFWM.

Maybe, we can get Bob Barry to do the ABC TV games. Hell, after four gin and tonics I even talk like BB......Well maybe five but who's counting.

LOL i caught that also; seems like they said the Big 10 again another time during the game

I agree, I don't know where that one came from. Many experts think that we have a good depth at our line. The only guy that I have ever heard say that before was Schlabach, but he later detracted that statement. Do your stinking homework, guys!

[Curly Bill]

I liked the part where one of our backs tripped over Brian Simmons, and the dumas announcer said he'd tripped over Ryan Reynolds.

[wishbonesooner]

I tried turning down the sound and listening to Big Bob instead of the ABC stuff. All I can say is it was brutal.
