Long time lurker here, been going to at least 2-3 games a year for last 15 years… this is a genuine question, not a knock on Rutgers - thought the atmosphere and in game entertainment were all top notch last night.

That said, the one thing I’ve noticed is in game replays shown on the scoreboard are relatively few and far between… there were many times last night I would have loved to see the play from a better angle then my seats in 144.

Are they able to replay what was just shown on the broadcast? Do they have seperate cameras/feeds for the scoreboard? Or is it just that it’d be a distraction overall or that the other in game graphics are preferred?

The past couple of years they were showing replays of almost every play, which was great; not sure why they're not doing that this year and it's annoying. Of all the "entertainment" options during the game, this is, by far, the most important, IMO (the rest are window dressing).

At least he stopped playing the lion roar at our home games!!!!
My pet peeve is when he breaks up the RU cheer with one of his nonsensical mash ups.

And why oh why during the most critical third downs do they kill For Whom the Bell tolls with Joe Nolan's annoyingly long Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd itttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttts thirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd dowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn?

That needs to stop. Cuts way down on the noise, and the students are standing there puzzled, not making any noise.

My number one complaint on the fan response since Joe has been doing it. He needs to be retired he’s awful. More times than not he credits the wrong player and he is unaware of his role. He is not the main attraction.

I actually don't hear him at all except on third down. I listen to the RU broadcast with an earphone in one ear, but I would be able to hear him. That's fine with me.

I saw a bunch of replays at the stadium . Actually I often was telling my group watch this replay of certain plays on the big screen.

This is noticeable on tv

They should let the haunting R-Us continue, especially when we’re on defense
