FOX's BCS coverage

I thought it pretty much sucked.

Barry Switzer was completely commentated that game one sided in his pre, halftime, and post game shows.

These guys don't cover college football all season and yet they get most of the biggest bowl games, including the national title game.

I thought Barry Alvarez was OK in the booth in his first game (I think). Added some good coaching insight.

Why the NFL can't get color men with knowledge on Sundays is amazing.

They also paid a fortune for the privledge. I would also like them broadcast some regular season games. Maybe move some games off the regional channels or something.

Fox BCS coverage is like Fox newscoverage

The horrible Fox announcers never question ref calls or even infer that a call could be questionable. They seem to know little to nothing about college football. And last years coverage of the Sugar Bowl turned into a chance to bash the Georgia Bulldogs. They spent all of the pre-game hyping Hawaii and then when Georgia was killing them they criticized Georgia for continuing to score in the third quarter!
It will be a wonderful day when the BCS falls apart...until then, it will be wonderful when the BCS games aren't shown on Fox.

Summeral is the funniest on Fox. Runner gets 4 yds, he says 8, its 2nd down, he says first. THe ball gets batted at the line of scrimmage and he goes..something hit the ball in the air. Fox stinks..no practice all year and then they execpt a good production for 4 games, its not going to happen.
