I found it frustrating that these guys spoke about the Stanford/Oregon game and the TCU/BSU game as much as the game they were suppose to be commentating on. In my opinion it was disrespectful to both USF and SU fans. While plays were happening they continued to talk about these other games. I had to vent about.

Any game that is not close at the end the commentators start talking about other games and there is always a plug for NASCAR. I have noticed this quite a bit.

The commentary was good. Stop being jealous that our team isn't nationally significant this year. There's a top 10 matchup being played tomorrow on their network and they want to talk about it. The majority of the commentary was about the game.

Every game a commentator will say something stupid, but I think the Friday night crew is pretty good. Rod Gilmore pointed out what Marc could have done not to fumble the ball.

2007's Friday night game we played is among the highest rated ESPN week night games, and I assure you most of the focus was on us that night. Stop losing and people care more.

I thought the commentating was spot on. They mentioned those other games late when the game was out of reach, but for the most part were right on with our game. High praise for BJ by them. He deserved it. He was by far the best athlete on the field, and he made great decisions tonight. The only bad things in my opinion were the Victor Marc play (trying to do too much), and the pass defense which has been horrendous at times this season. Other than those two things, we pretty much dominated.

Way to go Bulls!

Exactly, because we were 4-0 and ranked, as was WVU. That's the key.
