7-0 Rice on the back of a 7+ minute drive with mostly runs and a couple of forward passes

Rice going back to 1960s football and doing it well so far

PVAMU had made a drive to open and had it at their 30 something and was going to go for it on 4th and 4 and there was a false start so they punted

Posted (edited)

Rice kicks off with a not so great kick that bounces at the 10 and the PVAMU returner flubs it and finally gets it Rice takes him down at the 7

3rd and 10 at the 7 Rice has a big rush and the QB does a half assed desperation pitch back to the 4 PVAMU punts Rice ball at the PVAMU 45

I just subscribed. I like all of the soccer content. I think I'll make use of this on my overnights (three a week) for $5 a month.

yea I was watching Hawaii CSU, but on ESPN it looked like there was about 30 seconds left and Rice must have gone for it on 4th and either turned it over or did not convert and PVAMU had a scoring play to answer

This isn't surprising. Rice was already terrible and their best players all transferred after the coaching change. 

They are probably one of the worst teams in college football if not the worst. 

I dont think PVAMU has ever beaten a FBS school. This may end up as the worst loss in school history

Maybe but Rice went 1-11 last year and all their best players transferred. 

This team would struggle to beat some 6A HS teams. That's probably a little bit of hyperbole but they're god awful.

Fired this up on ESPN+ just in time to see pvaggy kick the ball out of the end zone for a safety to tie it up at 28.

But the announcers sound like a high school broadcast... And not a good one either.

Rice scored a TD got it within 2 held on D and PVAMU screwed the long snap for the punt and had to kick the ball out of the end zone for a safety 28-28 all tied up Running Rice Owls to get the ball after the safety

Yes, it's fairly new, launched within the past couple of months.  I don't pay for it but supposedly it has some new stuff but it also has a lot of stuff that used to be included with espn3/watchespn.

With the incredible demand for a Rice - PVA&M game, there is sure to be a lot of money to be made sellig the rights. Just another great dcision by the Worldwide Leader

Last play of the Game:

 

If i sat down and tried to think of a way to keep the football on screen, yet make it impossible to know what's going on...I'd have a hard time beating that sudden zoom-out technique.

It sure brings the drama for anyone that just cuts on the game at that moment, unaware of what's going on...

I think that's the equivalent of throwing your car in drive to back out of the garage, and ending up in the living room.   

I bet the cameraman twisted the zoom the wrong direction.

Woo hoo Go Owls!!!

We’ll get crushed by Cougar High next week (oh well still have a better job and life than them 😜) but time will tell as to whether we improve as the season goes on. Tonight wasn’t a promising start to the Bloomgren era, but Bailiff lost his first game to $.05 State so at least it’s an improvement over that.

I bet the control room wanted a slow zoom in to frame the kick just as the ball was snapped but lost track of the time. They tell the camera man to zoom out and then, in panic, take his camera when the ball is snapped.

I worked in TV for a little while and operated a studio camera. I sucked. Any camera operator who can keep a football in motion in focus from a hundred yards is elite. Their mistakes are sometimes not realizing that they're on-line and moving off their shot too quickly. Their apparent mistakes are often control room fuck-ups.

This sounds like a reasonable explanation.  They did cut to that camera right before it happened.
