mtn. announcers are dumb

Posted in Sportson Nov 26, 2007

Unlike last year, this year I was able to attend the BYU vs. Utah game, and it was incredible. I was re-watching a recording of the end of this year’s game from Saturday, and with 1:13 left in the game, 4th down and 19 to go, the announcers made this comment:

Final play of the game offensively for BYU

The actual last offensive play of the game for BYU came some 35 seconds of play clock later, as Max Hall threw a two point conversion pass to Collie just after Unga ran the ball in for a touch down, giving BYU a 7 point lead.

Please, announcers on the mtn. channel, don’t say a play is the last of the game unless it actually is.

Funny, I was watching the telecast on 4th and 19 and remember thinking the same exact thing. BYU simply wasn’t producing offensively; even as a fan I said the same sort of thing. I’m not going to hold it against the mtn. commentator.
