Jones was hilariously bad last night. Trying to argue that the game next week vs A&M shouldnt be for first place in the sec because he thinks georgia, texas, or tenn are better than us. The record is what matters but he clearly just didnt give a shite and talked us down like we were 2nd rate or some garbage. Dude really just doesnt like us

I would give my right ear to hear these guys call another LSU night game on ESPN. But those days are long gone, daddy-o.



With this guy on the sideline reports…

I'm with you on most points. Besides that, what had me confused is how they kept rambling on about how if arky won they would put themselves in contention for a playoff spot. If we won we might be able to play our way in. Wtf? We were ranked number 8 by THEIR ranking.

Dude’s voice is synonymous with CFB, in my opinion. Back when ESPN had some class.

Is this the same two where one on them said something like " the best way to pick up yards through the air is to pass the ball"?

It was something similar to that but it was the biggest duh of the day. Even my wife picked up on it.

Laughing about Daniels getting injured when he was blind sided.


I thought this was a cheap shot by the Arkansas player. The play was behind Daniels and he clearly was not trying to block anyone.

I’ve also seen refs throw a flag for much less.

Both were clueless egomaniacs. Both had diarrhea of the mouth and seemed in way over their heads.

Mark Jones is PBP for the Sacramento Kings as well. He's better with Basketball and should stick to that.

Just cut these idiot tv announcers down and sync up the game with the LSU radio guys. Very few network announcers that I can stand anymore. Once you get past the number one crews on these broadcasts, they are all pretty bad.

Why do you guys do this to yourselves? Every week people complain about the TV announcers.

Mute the audio and enjoy the game, or mute the TV and listen to LSU announcers over the radio or Internet.

It's so much more enjoyable.

They were the B team, you could tell. Not sure why ESPN would keep using them.

That team always does the LSU-Ark game. To tell you the truth, if an announcer is really good, he may get my attention, I generally don't listen to them unless I need info.

Who the announcers are is overrated.

Early in the game he pointed out Weeks spying QB. He said QB will win that every time. How did that work out lol

They were legit bad. The guy that’s been doing it forever seemed to just come down to the level of the other guy.(Roddy Jones I think) Roddy was pretty bad and doesn’t have a future in broadcasting unless they want to meet some quotas.
