RunInRed 16,239 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Maria Taylor will be front and center for the season debut of ABC’s Saturday Night Football featuring No. 11 Oregon vs. No. 16 Auburn (7:30 p.m. ET) from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The Pac-12 – SEC showdown will mark the start of the trio’s third season together. Also ... ABC’s Saturday Night Football marks the college football regular season debut of three dynamic cameras: ‘Enhanced Line to Gain Pylon Cam’; a ‘Marker Cam’, which has pan, tilt and zoom optics within the systems; and All Cam. Each will be standard technologies used on most ABC Saturday Night Football games this season. More on the technologies can be found here.

AUsince72 11,084 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Not bad IMO. However, anybody else notice that on these ABC prime games, the bands' mics are so loud you often barely hear the announcers? I'm not complaining, mind you..... Just an observation. I promise, next Saturday night though, I'll be listening to and pulling for Mr. Burcham. War Eagle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I typically listen to the TV announcers because I just don't like the delay but I'm going with Burcham next week. Exciting but still sad too.

Typically there's a thread each year to help people sync the TV with the AU radio if you use a tablet or phone. For the last few years I use an App called "TuneIn Radio". To my knowledge they still have AU Network and they are usually WAY behind the TV (2-3 mins+), so if you have a DVR then you can just pause the opening kickoff until you hear the "Warrrrr Eagle!" and then you'll be close enough to fine-tune it within a couple plays. Every now and then, it un-syncs (is that a word?) a bit and you might have to re-do it but it's usually only a couple times per game....sometimes never. Good Luck!

AuburnTiger4Life 2,225 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I always listen to Auburn radio on 106.5 out of mobile. It’s always slightly ahead of the tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know that it will be difficult on him but he is a professional. I split time between Auburn and the coast and no AU network on the coast that I can pick up. Panama City has an AM affiliate but only good if you are right by the station. When on the coast I pull the game up on "TuneIn Radio". Found that if I listen to WEIS out of Cherokee County AL that is close to being in sync with television broadcast for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he's the best BSPN can offer and I don't hold grudges 🙂 but as a voter in 2004 he publicly proclaimed all season long in that if we had an undefeated regular season - ulimately beating 5 top 10 teams - it would be outrageous if Auburn did not play in the title game. Come December he was tripping over himself explaining why our playing the Citadel (in September) SHOULD be a signicant factor and our jumping number #1 or #2 would be "historically unprecedented" (painfully untrue). Maybe his frequent fairness to Auburn (no doubt unpopular w/ BSPN producers) is a make up call on his part.😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the only one who saw Auburn as a dark horse in 2013. Kirk doesn’t like Auburn. He’s a Saban lover through and through. But he also has a tendency to pull for one underdog team every year. In 2010, we were that team until the Cam media tirade. Then he got hot on TCU. On the years that he’s given us “respect,” it’s because we were his underdog team.

He's a professional. He knows how the sausage gets made. In 2004, USC and Oklahoma were the correct business decision for ESPN. Had nothing to do with who deserved to be there.
