Game telecast

[Matt Trump]

Anyone know who will be calling it on tv tonight?

[georgiapantherfan]

I hope to God it is not the woman who calls for ESPN (I think she did one of the games last weekend). I just cannot stand her announcing....it is not even about the fact that she is a woman she is just a pi** poor announcer.

You mean Pam (don't call me Paul) Ward?

[NJ Panther]

From the UNI athletics website:
Dave Pasch will handle the play-by-play, Rod Gilmore and Trevor Matich are the analysts, and Stacey Dales-Schuman is the sideline reporter

Too lazy to look up anyone else but Pasch is the former PBP guy for Syracuse football and currently the PBP for the Arizona Cardinals. Maybe that means he knows which team to root for

[georgiapantherfan]

Good, at least I will be able to stomach the announcers. Hope that Pam/Paul is off visiting Boone, NC this weekend!

[UNI MadCat]

Rod Gilmore is 100 x's worse than Pam Ward, IMO.

I'm not a PW fan, per se, but I think she gets a bad rap a lot because she is typically announcing a rather boring, 4th-tier Big10 game at 11 o'clock.

[georgiapantherfan]

And why do you think they have her on the 4th tier Big 10 game????

[UNI MadCat]

Look, she's not great but she's not awful. I'd say she's in that spot because she is a woman. Anyone who says they dont like her "not because she's a woman but..." is fooling themselves. I see this mentioned dozens of times every week on Badgernation when she does one of their games. If she had the exact same style, mannerisms, etc, etc but was a man, she wouldn't get a 1/10th of the complaints.

[georgiapantherfan]

Well, I am being honest when I say that my wife doesn't care for her annoucing either. She said last week when we were watching PW's game "I hope she isn't announcing our game next week".

Like her if you want! We don't have to debate the gender equity question her, I am glad she is not doing the game, enough said. Go Panthers!

If he does the Cardinals PBP, then he's going to know at least SOMETHING about UNI, after calling Warner games all year!

[TravelingPanther]

espn's 1-aa announcers have sucked every game, every year.

[Newsbreaker]

I imagine their "A" "B" and even "C" teams are off right now, before the flurry of activity around Bowl season.

Here's what you all should do: Put the TV on mute and tune in to Rima on the radio!

I couldn't agree more, why listen to some impartial second-rate anouncer when we can hear "OH BABY" on the radio!

[Dome fan]

Yep thats my plan too! Got to have the "OH Baby's" just got to!
