To Those Watching The Outback Bowl On TV

I'm Sorry.

With Bobby Knight going for 880 on Monday at 12:00 Noon, you will get to see multiple "live break-ins" of the event I am sure. They will go on and on and on about it.

Not trying to say it isn't news worthy, but I feel sorry for those that will have to watch it.

Maybe Keith Jackson will decide to retire, so we can hear about that all night, too.

I was hoping he would get 880 tonight. I'm honestly tired of hearing it at this point.

Actually . . . They just announced that the b-ball game is being brouadcast in it's entirety on ESPN2, so we should be fine.

Oh, I saw that, just figure they will STILL cut-in during the football game.

Even one of the guys on sportscenter tonight said that they are the "Texas Tech Network".

I would love to believe that, but it's ESPN we're talking about

The fact it's on ESPN2 would make it easier for them to break in, I'd think.

Ditto. Even if they don't actually break in, they will talk about it the whole game.

Does anyone know who is doing the game?

It's not going to be the woman announcer is it?

**GAVol** · 12-29-2006, 12:01 AM

They might break in for quick updates and promo the fact that it's on, but I can't imagine them doing anything where they simulcast anything.

Utsports says "(Mike Patrick, Todd Blackledge and Holly Rowe)"

I really enjoy Patrick, but didn't Blackledge go to Penn St?

**tidwell** · 12-29-2006, 12:05 AM

Maybe they'll just run a "BREAKING NEWS: Texas Tech/New Mexico have tipped off" etc. bulletin along the bottom of the screen.

yes, he did. Lovely non-biased announcer...

Todd Blackledge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

God....that will SUCK.

He's bad anyway, but vs. Penn St, he will be unbareable.

We can only hope UT thrashes PSU, so he doesn't have much to toot about on the PSU side.

If it's close, or PSU gets a lead, I fear my TV may not live through the game.

Blackledge was QB on what I think was a National Championship team at Penn State.
