Riddick is a 🤡. Was really getting on my nerves during the Syracuse game and would not shut up about our two very bad not good down right God awful historically atrocious losses to “unranked” teams. Do these jokers who keep pushing this dumb talking point realize that SMU was ranked in the Top 20 in the preseason and Louisville was on the edge of the Top 25 and could have arguably been with a 4-1 record and single loss in OT to Virginia before they played us?

I have Hulu with all the ESPN+ channels so are games are often shown on the regular channel, the Sky View channel, and the Control Center channel. I prefer the Control Center because I get both views, and all the stats, minus the announcers.

Unfortunately, I can't watch live this week because my kid's football championship is at the same time. Only team I'll ever put ahead of Miami. So if we lose, feel free to blame me.

Good luck to your kids football team

Good luck to your son's team!
 
There are much worse ESPN duos - did someone mention Jones & Jones? Only issue is both of these guys talk way too much. The play-by- play guy also acts like he’s a radio guy & the fans can’t see for themselves what’s happened on the field,

I mean Riddick has been whining for Virginia Tech because of the dumb inverted whistle call that made them replay 3rd down for about 10 minutes now. They’re down 17 around midfield and I’m not so certain the QB’s shin didn’t touch the ground but no one mentioned that but whatever. Anyway, maybe it was a questionable call. It didn’t take away a TD. It was about an 14 yard completion. It certainly won’t decide the game.

Now against SMU there were about 3-4 calls against us in situations where if they didn’t happen, we’d have won. So the whining from Riddick seems a bit much considering how we’ve been absolutely drubbed with **** calls and officiating all year long.

This is an unserious opinion. It was a terrible call, full stop.

Sure. But we get those about 3-4 times a game and no announcer anywhere gives us 10 minutes of ranting on our behalf. Roddy Jones certainly didn’t with SMU. They took that TD away from Brown against UF when the same thing happened and we got a “yeah that whistle was a little early” from the crew. And that was a TD which would have essentially ended the game considering UF had 30 yards of total offense at that point
