Bizarre BTN in 60 replay of the Fiesta bowl

[creamery freak]

I taped the replay from early this morning, and they cut out a lot of the end of 1st and early 2nd qtr. Totally cut out Jeanty's fumble and Allar's fumble. They went almost live play on a couple of Boise's drives in the 2nd half, showing fans and Boise's players on the sideline. Head scratcher for sure. Almost made me think Boise States' telecommunications dept did replay.

I don’t know what the parameters are for filling in the 60 but you’re right the editing is a head scratcher. They show meaningless kickoffs but delete important plays as you mentioned.

I did not yet see the BTN60 replay of our game as I DVR'd the game.

Bizarre seems to be the appropriate adjective. It's like they have people editing the games who are really not true football fans. To be honest, I have been less than impressed with the production quality of the broadcast. The play by play, the analyst, arbitrary replay of critical calls, side line reporting, officiating, etc.

It's disappointing but not surprising in this day and age.

JM frustrated O....

YEA, THE BIG Network is going down hill very fast! Even the announcers are getting bad! As their programming.

The SMU version was worse.

The SMU version was worse.

That’s because ESPN/ABC continues to jam the racist Mark Jones down our throats rather than throwing him out on the street where he belongs.

They do that with a lot of them. It is very head scratching what they decide to show and what they edit out.

Agreed, It feels like the people doing the editing may be film people, not football or sports people.

Are the editors people at all? AI?

Uh, there was no SMU version, which is kinda the point.

They would have never been able to fit it in with the OSU/ Tennessee game running 10 times a day!

I thought he was talking about the TBS broadcast. Either way, Mark Jones sucks.

Yes he is really bad and somehow has hung around forever. He actually was the play by play guy for our '94 Citrus Bowl win over Tennessee after the '93 season

We Are Penn State, and they are the Big Ten which perfectly explains their attitude toward us. Always going to be that way so better just accept it.
