I'll weigh in here.
Football announcers in both college and the NFL in today's world are far more knowledgeable about rules than they have ever been in my lifetime. They are also more supportive of officiating than they have ever been.
The three announcing crews I regularly work with are incredibly strong on their knowledge of the rules, which (fortunately?) minimizes the times I need to speak.
Sometimes the rules get very complex and announcers do get it wrong, but sometimes the officials, including Replay, get it wrong and announcers are obliged to point it out especially when rules are involved rather than real-time judgments.
Judgments are always open for debate, but as I said, today's announcers are very deferential to judgments by officials and almost always extremeley fair.
If Commissioner Sankey and the SEC believe announcers are treating SEC officiating unfairly, I would suggest reaching out and working with their broadcast partners on rules/officiating would be far more effective than a broadside attack such as this.
@SECcountry Silly that mizzou is different? If mizzou goes 3-1 with wins of Texas and Kentucky but loses on the road at UGA (not saying they will) they would have 3 top 10 wins on the year.
Getting some stats together for an award being presented….
