GMAFB. This is worthy of populating ESPN's block of leading stories, isn't it?

Ole Miss snaps losing skid with shutout win

 

[TampaBuckeyes]

Headline on espin right now: Ole Miss snaps losing skid with shutout win

Doesn't say the shutout win was against Presbyterian.

For all the Herbstreit haters, please listen to all his comments at the end of the game tonight.

He still loves tOSU, whether you all believe it or not.

And so do I!! GO BUCKS!!!!!

He just jumps on the bandwagon ... he'll be right back off it next week when they most likely go to Tuscaloosa for the SEC Game-that-won't-matter-because-both-of-these-teams-are-so-awesome-and-going-to-the-playoff-regardless-of-results game.

 

[MaxBuck]

He just jumps on the bandwagon ...

Of course he does.

But he still loves the Buckeyes.

 

[kujirakira]

Does he? It's not like I haven't heard this shtick a million times before.
This is why people get so annoyed by frosty tips the cliche machine... it's all vacuous. The second a team starts doing good or ESPN wants to push that narrative, he jumps on the bandwagon. The second they don't live up to perfect expectations, he's the first to turn and pile on with the "over rated".
If he wants to be "objective", then be "objective". Don't turn around in local radio and elsewhere and try to play it like you're really a diehard fan... own it. The likes of Musberger have gushed about the Buckeyes in the past too... and turned just as easily; but there is no pretense with Musburger. It's just a job. He doesn't go on twitter, radio, etc. and try to sell himself as a diehard and then rant about deluded fans (yea, every fan base has them Herbie... deal with it; comes with the job as a tv personality.)

I just don't like his commentary style, he just gushes random buzz words. Might as well use the NCAA video game audio, the real deal is just as repetitive.

No argument with this. If I hear him say, "playing in space" one more time I think I'll hurl.

I actually think David Pollack offers a lot more insight into the game.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

My gripe is with the unspecified "conference break" being to the SEC during coverage of a Big Ten game.

It is not with the interest level of the highlights in question.

They call it that no matter what conference you're watching or what conference the highlights are from. I don't know why...but it's not an SEC thing.

I actually think Chris Spielman or Todd Blackledge offers a lot more insight into the game.

FIFY

I've hear him quote verbatim entire lines from the game... just sayin'.

I had thought that to be self-evident, but of course you're right.

 

[BuckeyeMafia]

Nah, there is no SEC media bias.

 

[LovelandBuckeye]

Nah, there is no SEC media bias.

But what about that badminton scandal? #1 in the world caught doping! Is nothing sacred anymore?

Lou Holtz had Ohio State at #4 in his top-4 bracket. And then they did their little courtroom schtick with shit saying Ohio State won't make even if they run the table and Holtschshshsh vehemently saying they should.
