Fog Bowl on ESPN2 right now

Toledo vs. Northern Illinois . . . It's almost halftime. You've got to flip over and have a look at the fog that has settled in. I'd say the visibility is around 200 feet.

The announcers are delirious trying to keep up with what is going on.

It is weird. I'd run the reverse/fake reverse on a kickoff return.

You're assuming that you could actually field a kickoff right now.

Did anybody tune in in time to hear the one of the color guys say "Ooh, I think I saw a touchdown!"

Thats assuming they actually watch the game. Lately the talking heads I've caught working the games seem to be working more off loose scripts and one another as the game itself.

First thing I said when I flipped it to that game, out loud, was "USC at Oregon State 2004."

At it's worst, they probably had about 3-5 feet of visibility.
