Who likes these announcers?

The play by play guy is a hockey announcer for the Capitals and used to be one of the main guys on Versus. Glen Mason is the former Minnesota coach. He's not bad to be honest. It is THE BIG TEN NETWORK so anyone expecting equal time are going to be disappointed.
They are seriously awful.
I know it is the Big10 network so you cant expect good announcers, but they are definitely more homers than I thought they would be. That crowd looks crazy though
Oh we see it. Mason is the worst. A complete moron. This is the first I've heard the other guy.
And that was clearly PI, the safety took the receiver out. It was a tackle. It's hard to call it uncatchable when the receiver has no chance to get there because he's been tackled while the ball is in the air, right?
I wasn't laughing at the absurdity of the announcers. Mason sucks. We have to listen him all the time. I was laughing at the idiot who said that wasn't PI.
I don't dispute the calls. .but I have never even heard the ND guys take an "angle" like these guys do. It took them until the 2nd quarter to mention the absence of James Conner.
Yeah. That's ridiculous.
I'll never understand announcers that don't do their homework.
Mason said it was 'unusual' that we started on O. We have literally done that almost 100% of KF's career. 16 flipping years of starting on O and its 'unusual' because 'we normally start on D'?? Sigh..... What a dolt
It is the Big Ten Network. You are going to get a homer call from the network. I would expect the same thing if the ACC had a network.
I actually had the radio on at the beginning. From what they said, we won the toss and deferred. So not only what you said about the announcers, but also since Iowa received, I think they just automatically assumed they won the toss.
Lol. Seriously. Makes it even worse. 1. No homework. 2. Not even aware of the actual situation. For the love of all things sacred....
Contact doesn't automatically make it pass interference. There has to be at least a slight chance the receiver can catch the ball. It was nowhere close.
Relax. It's not that funny.
Iowa must be awfully boring for you to giggle so much over that.
Since Glen Mason is talking about what he'd do if he was coaching I thought this might be interesting.
Mason's total record as a head coach: 123-121-1
Mason's total record in conference games as a head coach: 67-92-1
Number of better than .500 seasons in 9 years coaching in the Big 8/12: 2
Number of better than .500 seasons in 10 years coaching in the Big 10: 2
Are you sure you can't figure out why you are in the booth and not down on the sideline Glen?
