Lookalike & Game thread - #16 (AP)/ #17 (NET rankings) Men's bball on the road vs. #65 (NET) OSU (Corvallis, Sat., 2/15, 8:00 PM MT, FS1)

[Buffnik]

Still haven't decided if I love or hate the coaches being mic'd up in this one. I'm sure Tad is a lot more vocal and on the refs than many people realized.

 

[FM-Buff]

I like this. You don’t even need the play-by-play or color guys.

Great block by Bey and then also Parquet

 

[cu3x]

I think it's great. Announcers not saying much is nice too

 

[FM-Buff]

Also, Tinkle told them to run a play called “stack”. As soon as they were in it, Boyle called out “stack” to the defense. CU stole the ball.

This is really good television! Well done FS1

 

[FM-Buff]

Good idea to focus on one coach. It was hard to pay attention with both of them telling.

 

[Zapata]

Bey on his game tonight, moving well

 

[L Buff]

What?!? No commercial breaks? When are @DBT and me supposed to take a piss
(not together of course)? Wait until halftime .. I don't think so.

 

[manhattanbuff]

I bet a lot of money on the Buffs ML tonight. Cocktails!

GO BUFFS, these days maybe even more than ever, from a work trip in Vietnam! I was hoping my sling tv was going to help me out on this work trip, but nope......good thing I have ESPN gamecast and of course, all of the comments in this thread GO UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO, GO BUFFALOES! **** everyone else that isn't on board with it.

 

[GoonieBuff]

Love this broadcast.

 

[Hank]

Hated this at first. But it’s an adjustment. Great television

 

[torero]

Tad “****ty possession” on the Gatling bail out 3. And it was. Tad is so much better than his haters give him credit for.

I will never appreciate a broadcast more than this one.

 

[Zapata]

Wouldn't want full access every game, but getting this perspective is sweet.....good change-up

 

[GoonieBuff]

Pretty funny how the Oregon State logo and court name face opposite the main camera.

 

[cu3x]

as hard as he is working, Tad's got that jacket on. Will he take it off?

 

[cu3x]

off comes Tinkle's tie

I love this ... I wish every sports broadcast could be like this.

 

[GoonieBuff]

I’m loving the consistency of Tyler’s mid range baseline jumper.

 

[Buffalo Brad]

Very fun broadcast

 

[azbuff]

One coach sounds just a tad classier than the other...

 

[-BMP-]

The Oregon State coach losing an article of clothing every five or so minutes.

I'm scared he might end up naked.

His clothes are trickling off!

 

[FM-Buff]

Has Tinkle said one word about defense?

 

[Zapata]

Strating on deck! **** is about to go down!

 

[Daaah]

This is so cool.

 

[GoonieBuff]

Also cool to see how Tad can go right from intense or irate to calm composed and chill.

Made me think a bit about things:

While I can get frustrated with Tad for some consistent deficiencies his teams have or questionable rotations, I definitely appreciate our coach. He’s no fraud, and built this fun and competitive team, has their backs, and believes in them. If I was a parent of a D1 athlete, I wouldn’t think twice of having him coach my kid.

 

[Zapata]

Here is the thing about Tad, he could have Mel Tuckered us several times....bigger schools, bigger checks, all that, but he didn't. We are fortunate to have him at Colorado.

 

[torero]

That Strating “fast break” was hilarious. Not exactly his strength.
