Is this some radical new espn experiment? can we expect the same annoying views for the OHIO/Temple game?

As entertaining as this game is, I can only imagine how comical the basketball games between these two might be.

Toledo can't read the QB draw if their life depended on it.

These camera angles suck, indeed.

It looks like either a boom camera or one that's suspended from cables over the field.  They have other cameras because they have higher angles on replays and crowd shots.  Sometimes I think directors get too artsy-fartsy.

Would assume from the description that you guys are citing a jib camera. They likely have some of these tricky spots and camera choices owing to the ESPN3D broadcast being overlayed there; pretty sure they can't/don't share glass on these sorts of shows.
