Two cutaways to OC Corey Dennis, who is also Urban Meyer's son-in-law. Add in both Dan Mullen and Addazio were assistants under Meyer at Florida, then Addazio went to Temple and lost in Athens...

The commentators seem to think more highly of our O-Line than me.

Dan Mullen was an ESPN commentator the last few years. Commentators shilling for their old co-worker.

I turned the volume up hoping Hauser would be mic'd up as well, to no avail. What a day at the Convo.....Wow!

My Dad rants every week about how much hates the Packers and was biased. I just honestly don't get it. Joe Buck has said literally every NFL fan base thinks he is biased against them. The dude last night was very praiseworthy of lots of things all over the field. It's fine.

I think ESPN expected UNLV to blow us out and they have Dan Mullen and Urban Meyer’s son in law that they mic’d up and put a camera on for the game. They still showed Hauser plenty.

All he did was criticize the play of both quarterbacks. Unless it was the Bobcats, if he's the "color" guy, I'm changing the channel.

And this has nothing to do with team bias, but neither announcer knew Angelo Dundee died a long time ago? I just looked it up. It was 2012.

Terrible announcers. A sponsor no one knows. This was the lamest bowl we’ve been in but it’s a win!

I just muted them pretty much the entire 2nd half.

The color guy was a little biased, but overall it wasn’t bad. I’ve heard much worse!

I was surprised he was as pro-Vegas as he was. His ass got handed to him so much worse in the Mountain West than in the MAC.
