Who was the color guy?

[Spinner4]

Dude wanted us to lose badly. He was pleading for targeting badly at the end. NO ONE saw targeting. NO ONE saw ruffing the passer.

but maybe the worst of all was when he pretended we got away with leaving a WR wide open. I always thought the color guy was supposed to be a former player who understood the game.

was the guy wide open? Sure. To the untrained eye it seemed his plea was legit. Like we got away with something. But does he realize that would have been a 54 yard pass sideline to sideline, across the body. Who can make that throw? Mahomes couldn’t. And if he did throw that, our DBs would have had time to react. I mean come on dude, know the game. That would have been a next level throw.

and even when we won, he had a hard time saying it. Get these off the air please. Do better sports world

Think it was Jake Butt, former Michigan TE.

No one is rooting for one of the teams to lose. Those guys are filling the dead air, they are paid to blab.

I know that all of us think we could do a better job, but next time you watch a game and you say stuff during the game, just think how many times you trip over your on words, or mess up what you are saying or forget something...it is not easy.

He announces like a butthead, so name sticks

The color guy was literally saying we are a dark horse playoff team at the end of the broadcast. He also mentioned he expects us to be 7-1 when we play USC.

He has a much more positive view of our program than the vast majority of our fan base, myself included

We have earned precisely zero accolades from the varied denizens of the college football ecosystem.

Let's beat a ranked team more than once a decade.

Yeah I thought these guys today were okay. Not great by any means, but they more or less stayed out of the way.

I didn't feel like Butt was really lobbying for a targeting call, just pointing out that Maryland was arguing for one and that it might go to review. And rhe play-by-play guy said right away that it was a clean hit.

I liked the play by play guy. I was comparing him to Beth Mowins, so not hard to be better than that

The new Nebraska radio play-by-play guy is really good, imo.

I had no problem with the commentator. Thought he was just fine.

One of my biggest gripes with Husker fans is that we think the world, including announcers, are out to get us.

The good ones try to be non biased until the game gets out of hand, this crew was one of the better ones on btn imo. Thank goodness we haven’t had to endure Gus Johnson

I get it that this is a new era, but I'm not sure the title to your thread is politically correct.
