Favorite Radio/TV call that went AGAINST your team?

I hear ya. I'd have been apoplectic if TAMU had ever lost to texas like that

Thankfully I was on the right side of this....but hopefully Kentucky fans have come to realize how classic their guy's radio call of the Bluegrass Miracle was.

"There are people on the goalposts. I don't know why"

I remember watching that with my dad and brother while my sister and mom waited in the car (were about to go out to eat). We started going crazy like we were LSU fans. Then started laughing hysterically when we saw the UK fans on the field realized what happened.

Kentucky Radio Call

"There's a steal by Bird."

That call is amazing

I truly did feel bad for those guys. Kentucky was finally going to get a win over a ranked team and a win that actually meant something...just to have it yanked away on a fluky miracle play. Kentucky is kinda like the lovable loser in football...if we had done that to Alabama or Auburn, there would have been no feeling sorry for them!

Hard to choose. Our legendary announcer Jon Ward made every call exciting - even when it was the opponents doing good. Most Vol fans would go to the stadium and wear headphones just to hear him call the game or turn down the TV and have him on the radio even though Ward would always be behind what we were seeing. That just didn't matter though, the man had a way of making things exciting no matter who was making the play and regardless of whether or not you already knew what had happened.

If I had to pick an opponents' announcer it would be UGA's. Whoever the guy was that made the radio call on the Hobnail Boot - Munson I think his name was - was EPIC. Not just the line that is regularly cited either but the whole bit that's usually left out. And that was one painful arse play for Vol fans - UGA won in the final seconds.

Sigh, I really miss those old radio guys. They knew how to broadcast for the radio, which is all about building drama, excitement, and telling the listener what it feels like. They painted pictures, told the listener a story/drama so to speak, and ignored trying to keep up with tv (not like they could've anyway). It made things so much more exciting to listen to them.

I dunno why, but I absolutely hate Breen's "Bang!" he so often uses.

Does nothing for me.

I gotta disagree with you. Breen needs to find something else to say other than "Bang!" every time someone makes a 3.

I'd rather Bob Licht yelling "Bottom!"

Welp, should have read all the way down
