It'll be so nice when it's finished." It still isn't finished. Last Edited: 10/5/2023 7:56:15 PM by Pataskala We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

So that means you will be able to watch the Buckeyes like normal on Saturday." But it did imply that tOSU football streaming rights are not far off.

Their fans weren't exactly thrilled about getting "bumped" "down" to streaming. Based on the comments on their fan forums, as well as fans I know, a number of people trying to watch the game had "issues" with the "broadcast". "Choppy" and "dead air" were the most common complaints. Also, no one was happy with the quality of the broadcast team or camera work.

OK, I guess my memory was wrong that there was an OSU game last year on Peacock. Perhaps, it was another B1G game.

I remember waiting ever so patiently for WOSU to air games that already had happened - games that my father and I had listened to on AM live. People today are too soft, lol.

Back in the day, edited versions of Notre Dame games used to air on Sunday mornings, even if they were on live TV the day before. Ray Scott did the pbp. I forget who did the analysis originally but Paul Hornung did it after he retired from the NFL. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

Although our guys are doofuses (having seen their antics around town and on the road, I can say that) I like their calls of the game and radio gives me a sense of nostalgia. It also allows me to do other things around the house while the game is going on.

This is really bad for the sports pubs. You'd think they'd look at giving the games away as promotional. Wowza.
