Anyone catch the highlights of the game on Sportscenter? Absolutely embarrassing for ESPN. They just showed football highlights in between and made it completely about Brian Kelly. Just awful work that should barely pass as journalism. Im not sure I can deal with people talking about BK every ******* football game next year instead of our team. Its just a joke.

Get ready for it. ESPN hardly analyzes or calls anything anymore. They go into anything with 1-2 subjects and beat them to death. If we played on neutral court in Cleveland they would manage to fit in a couple minutes of Lebron guaranteed. He-l-l, I counted a good 5 minutes straight of them not managing to call the game tonight, not one play, second, etc. It was WV-Pitt last night and BK. I'm with you, it's painful to watch and ridiculously annoying.

Heh BK has had them eating out of his hand ever since he flew up to Bristol during the bye week.

There was nothing to talk about in regards to the game. It kind of spoke for itself didnt it?

Well, let's be honest. The game was not all that interesting. ND was running away from the 'Cats. Maybe if the 'Cats put a better product on the floor, it would havebeen worth analyzing and discussing. What can you talk about during a blowout?

I would rather we talk about football. We are good at that.

I wouldn't know. I couldn't handle the ineptness. Watched it in 5 minute stretches and constantly changed the channel. CSI Vegas was much easier on my blood pressure.

Turn off the sound and turn on Hoard/Machok - 700WLW radio. It's a little annoying because the sound is off the picture by a few seconds, but win or lose they call a good game.

If it not a game, and it's on ESPN, it ain't worth watching. And now their games are getting to that as well. ESPN thinks they exist to promote, not cover and report.

Spending a few minutes with BK would be expected and appropriate at a ND-UC game. But did we have to watch him every break in the action sitting in the stands. Not that that's not exciting or anything!!! Afterall, they were just giving him the smae coverage they gave to Gene Keady at the IU/PU game right before our game.

Who gives a damn really? Bearcats got beat by 20, who wants to break down two evenly garbage teams participating in a one sided garbage game.

Kelly is bigger news than UC basketball, and to be honest, I thought Brian Kelly was rooting for UC last night the way he talked about still having close ties with the programs here. Classy guy.

Not classy - he's slick. He is sucking you in so that when he comes down here and steals Cincinnati area recruits, you won't feel as bad. He wants to take your candy and have you ask him if he wants the last snickers in your pocket...

The game sucked. I can't blame them.

Im not saying that game was worth talking about. But they were showing clips of our football team getting scored on and saying like "and heres the defense of the football team getting scored on too". Then showing ND football scoring...I dont know, just seemed terribly unecessary to me.

If you want respect from the media, win games. Based on the performance I saw last night, I can't feel too sorry for them.

I understand 'if it bleeds it leads', but do I need to see BK while my team is getting their @ss handed to them? Kick a guy when he's down why don't ya?
