Re: After watching the Fox Sports Halftime and Pregame

The announcers referred to ISU as the Iowa Cyclones on two different occasions. Not cool.

And yes, the BigTen Network is a gift sent from heaven. It's freaking beautiful in HD.

I liked the sideline reporter slapping the ISU players on the back as they ran out onto the field. What the hell?

And the worst part about it is the guy that called them the Iowa Cyclones played QB at Colorado and played against ISU for 4 or 5 years. I would think being an alum of a college in the same conference you would know the schools.

I love Mark Jones and his unnecessary use of obscure vocabulary words.

"Bob, that running back just stifled his opponent's hubris with alacrity. It looks like Alabama's national title hopes just got defenestrated. OH MY!"
