Fox wants to Cancel Rutgers?

Said it on a RT thread…

It’s the only game, as of right now, not being rebroadcast by Fox.

Some are being shown on Fox and FS1. At the same time.

But not ours.🤷‍♂️
 
There are likely other explanations instead of Fox wanting to cancel Rutgers. All part of how-not-to-fall-for-a-conspiracy-theory-101.
I’m with you on the first part but why replay the same game on Fox and FS1 at the same time?

That’s just odd to me.

Calm down. The announcing team tonight was slanted towards Maryland. Yes, it’s annoying. But it’s not what you’re trying to make it out to be.
I wouldn’t even say slanted, it was like they knew more or did more homework on MD so they talked them up more even though we had clearly seized momentum in the second half. They were more lazy than bias.

This was my interpretation. They discussed how they called an earlier game for Maryland. Spencer Tillman also admitted he knew the Maryland staff and Locksley better than he knew the Rutgers staff. There was bias but it was based out of familiarity.

This is not like Millen outwardly rooting for teams during his commentary

An act of mercy so no one has to listen to those announcers again.

Not sure if anyone else had this issue but I had problems hearing/understanding what Tillman was even saying during the broadcast. For instance whenever the Md band was playing basically could not hear him clearly. Maybe I needed a sound bar?

In addition to their announcing being poor so was their audio.
 
Yes they were saying MD. can score in 3 min vs 7 for Rutgers. Guy kept at it till we got the turnover.

That guy was perhaps the dumbest guy I’ve ever heard on the TV.

“If they trade touchdowns (RU was winning at this point) but it takes RU 7 minutes and MD 4 minutes then MD will win.”

What the everloving **** are you talking about??

You were lucky.
His pontificating went on and on.
At one point he said “Football is not a pejorative” Wtf was this guy talking about!

He first said more than once that Schiano knows how to protect a lead and then goes on to say that long 7 minute scoring drives are not good? Ugh
 
Agree. Had to turn the volume up during the game and turn it down during the commercials.
Watched a replay- - whatever they were saying was difficult to hear-- the audio was horrible. I thought the play by play guy was particularly bad and ny the way he was clearly disappointed when we got that interception. Yup he was rooting for the terps.
 
The one-hour replay is on big ten network
Tuesday 11 am

I would like the full version, forgot to tape
When I scrolled last night, I didn't get that far. But that's when I did notice how Fox has just about every other game they covered (Fox and FS1) with a replay excpet ours.

I figured it might be on BTN.

Chris Meyer is a good sideline reporter and OK NFL play by play guy. He was totally unprepared yesterday. I like Spencer Tillman but he seems to have mailed it in since he separated from being with Tim Brando. Not sure what happened there but those guys were best friends (and god parents to each others kids).

Slanted?
Ridiculously against Rutgers.
Its not live we have ever seen a biased media…

I take that as just dumb, not slanted, per se. So many things wrong in that broadcast, but they were complimentary to both teams, IMO, especially to AK and our WRs in the 2nd half. And then they were saying the game was over with 2 min left after MD got the ball - sure it was a longshot, but it wasn't over with a 2 score deficit.
 
I don't think they showed the - what I'm assuming was empty - Maryland student end zone once. Guess they want to "cancel" Maryland as well.



:WooHoo: :WooHoo: :WooHoo:
