the ESPNU broadcasters. Those guys are such Nega Tigers. They constantly pointed out LSU's problems with the O line and how Mett's stats looked ok but he really wasn't having that good of a game. And they kept going on and on about how uninvolved and flat the Tigers looked. They even brought up them possibly dropping in the polls.

We all should bombard ESPN with complaints about them putting such nega Tigers in the broadcasting booths.

Towson's head coach got like 30 minutes of combined face time in that broadcast.

They were definitely not avid LSU fans. When that one a-hole that DIDN'T have a vote in the polls said he would drop them, that was over the top. frick ESPN.

Don't just jump on the U broadcaster. Greg Bowser was un-fricking-bearable last night on the Cox replay. Dude talked shite about Mett's long TD pass to OBJ for about 15 minutes.

Just what should they have said? LSU just four weeks ago was a solid national title pick (not that that still can't be achieved)and over the last two weeks our offense has looked like garbage.

This is what happens when a 49.5 pt favored team cant put the inferior opponent away.

I actually turned the sound off because those guys were so bad. They really just kept repeating the samething over and over.

I didn't have sound for the game (which sounds like it was for the best), but every time they put up highlights it was the worst LSU plays and the best Towson plays. ...And they did that over and over. It was rather annoying.

Damn negatiger ESPNU. Don't they know this could hurt recruiting?

Can you believe they posted our passing yardage in our big games last year?

See what Justin Hunter and Mike Davis are missing?

My "favorite" comment was late in the fourth quarter when Towsen was moving down the field on three consecutive plays was a two yard run, 15 yard personal foul, and a pass interference. Matt made the comment, "They have a nice drive going on here". DUMASS

Its a good thing you were not listening to the opinions coming out of my living room! It was much more negative than anything the announcers said. The truth is we are playing like shite. People are so disapointed because we dont look like a powerhouse football team. It just seems like an ill prepared, not ready to play team and that is a let down.

Stinchcomb, an ex Georgia player, was the main culprit. He was trying to get the pollsters to move his bulldogs ahead of LSU. Guy was a real dick the entire game.

I wasn't happy with the broadcasters either.

I understand LSU didn't play well and certainly has concerns going forward, but they definitely went overboard with it.

In a game where they should be well aware that the only people in the country watching are LSU fans, they should have been a little less over-the-top IMO. There is a difference between calling the game and pointing out issues and flat out ridiculing LSU. It was almost like they were enjoying LSU playing poorly and anxiously awaiting the next moment that they could criticize LSU.

I don't see what was wrong with the announcers saying truthful shite about LSU during the broadcast. Should they have been sucking LSU's cock with that performance or something?

They're like D list broadcasters. They aren't the best so they'll harp on the same shite.

Not to mention LSU kept doing the same stupid shite throughout the game.
