I agree. Very subtle bias in the booth. They even had LSU last in the NASCAR race.

But, but, she is an accomplished graphic designer.

Something about that whole thing, reminds me of how so much was made over the Notre Dame DC replacing Kelly.

I think that this was a preemptive head coaching presentation for the replacement of Arkansas HC.

I remember them doing a long interview in the broadcast booth,with he new HC named for Purdue, during our bowl game. Also a black coach.

Why can't they fill the silence with commentary/analysis about the game or the players?

They knew everyone outside the Baton Rouge/Fayetteville faithful was tuned into UGA/UT, so why not put on the most craptastic duo you could find.

The constant camera shots of the Arky d-coordinator were crazy. I dont remember one comment or camera shot of Baker.
Racist garbage. And like most everyone else has said the two Jones's were terrible.

I’m usually the guy in these threads that tries to bring some reason as to why the announcers were not as bad as people on here think.

I got nothing.

That’s not the reason.

It is interesting to note that after the LSU offense started manhandling the ARK defense the commentators stopped talking about the “Sloan vs Williams” competition. I have a feeling had it gone the other way we wouldn’t have heard the end of how Williams bested Sloan.

yeah, that Harvey Williams comment came out of nowhere, and had zero to do with anything, those guys were beyond bad

None of them appear to be agenda driven like the two last Saturday night and, much more importantly, none of them suck on the level of the two from last Saturday night.

So, in answer to your question, I would say, “no”.

Plus, among all former LSU RBs, Harvey may be the absolute worst comparison.
