They are showing some b!G Tin Sheet currently and the camera angle is gawd awful. I hang out on a " I hate OSU " facebook page and the Michigan fans are pissed , as would I be if ESPN did this with a Ky game.... so do the douches at ESPN do this often ? Seems like I remember one other game like this ... it makes it a terrible experience to view a game .
 
They do that bs all the time during the uk game at the most critical part of the game it's bs
 
Who could forget that terrible "sky cam". IIRC they stopped using it at halftime because of all the negative feedback from the BBN.

I guess they wanted to give us a ringside seat for the two heavyweights that will compete for 5th place in the big 10 this year. I'm sure it's the only way they could get viewers for that game on a Super Tuesday

That sky cam made for the worst viewing experience I have ever witnessed for a sporting event , they would end college basketball if every game was like that . Who is in charge of quality control on that ?

That should have cost a few people a job. Sad that it took no telling how many thousands of phone calls before they finally switched off that crap.
 
You mean like the top down view they did a couple years ago? Horrible.

No, this time it was a floor level view as if you were sitting on the sideline. Horrible camera work that made watching the game terrible. Watch for long and you almost feel sick. In addition, it was near impossible to watch flow of game or determine if shots were going in or not until they got to the rim. Just terrible. What does ESPN think they are accomplishing, they have to see how bad it is too?
 
Given a choice of mid-court tickets or end zone tickets, who wouldn't sit at mid-court?

So why does ESPN think people would want to view from an end-zone perspective??
 
Good old skycam. And last night's angle is just another example of ESPN over thinking and trying to re-invent watching the game. Leave it alone and use it for replays only, not live action.
