How many more years is FOX going to hold these games?
Let's see - oh great 2010
What does the TV deal with FOX entail?
Fox Sports has an exclusive four-year agreement covering all broadcasting and sponsorship rights for the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, FedEx Orange Bowl and Allstate Sugar Bowl from 2007 through 2010. Fox also has the same rights for the BCS National Championship Game in 2007, 2008 and 2009. In addition to television rights, the contract also covers national radio rights; Internet rights; all sponsorship rights, including naming rights, signage opportunities; ancillary programming on Fox and/or FSN; and, jointly with the conferences and the bowls, rights for exploit merchandising opportunities.

They should be black-balled from the next round of negotiations - seriously - as completely unqualified to execute.

Why do teams like VT and Oklahoma get waxed by sub-par teams ever year and no one says a word about their lack of speed?

If OSU was losing to or lost to Kansas or boise St. ...I believe every sports announcer would highlight out slow pancake eating players and conference.

I totally agree and was thinking the same thing all day. Oklahoma's backfield was crawling with 'Neers all game long. I think the Sooners O-line was so terrible. They should have been able to just overpower WVA whenever they needed 4 yards.

These games on Fox actually make me miss Brent Musberger. Everything about this Fox presentation is annoying. I love the way the camera man misses the football getting near the goalposts.

I wonder what really is the problem? I don't see this type of issues with their pro telecasts. Maybe the college game is just an afterthought for them?
