I don't know if this was discussed during the game but did anyone else notice the lack of replays. The only replays I ever saw were of touchdowns and maybe a few others. That broadcast in general didn't seem up to par with what they normally do.

Just the opposite. They showed replays, sometimes when the live play was happening. They also cut to clips from other games and when they returned, a live play was running.

I was really pissed when we got a 30-yard run called back and not only did they not show the referees call, but then they didn't even show a replay of the penalty. As an LSU fan, I'm like "WTF just happenned"

You got the CBS B team in the broadcast booth and in the production trailers. The A team was in Alabama. Lot fewer cameras and replay capabilities with the B team.

You're exactly right. My dad and I kept asking for a replay. Plus they cut in after a kickoff. I couldn't believe how horrible it was. A lot of dead time that I couldn't understand.

As many games as CBS has covered LSU you would they would share some notes with the announcers like the fact J Lee plays every third series and that he was not put in to send a message to JJ

I think the absolute worst was Steve Buerlein "guaranting" that we would go for it on 4th and 1, as the punt team ran out on the field, or "guaranting" that the punt block would be on, only to have us go all our return on the punt. Where in the hell did they find this guy? Does playing backup quarterback in the NFL automatically give you press credentials?
