Will KMTV be airing this game with their HD cellular phone cameras again?

Unfortunately I think a good cell phone camera would be a huge improvement over what they currently use.

Congrats on the nice win over Northwestern tonight to all the CU fans. Unfortunately for the Huskers the Jays probably have more Big 10 men's BB wins than the Huskers will this year.
For the record  NEBUGEATER does not equal BUGEATER    !!!!!!!

Its not KMTV, they actually have HD Cameras.  They hire some production company to do everything.

Great game, wish I could have been there, but I did get to listen to it on the radio and watch on ESPN3.  This Creighton team is different than the past 6-7 yrs, they can get down, give up 34 points to an opposing player and still win!  I am so excited for this season.

The fact that they choose and hire them puts it all on the back of KMTV.   That video quality should be an embersiment to anyone in 2011

Glad I'm not the only one who thought the broadcast quality sucked. I was even thinking about seeing an optometrist this morning.

The big win tonight @ Wichita St. should help....Jays win 68-61! Great 2nd half by the bluejays outscoring the shockers 37-22 for a great comeback win.
Hopefully this will help to keep Creighton in the top 25.

That game looked too easy for Creighton. To win by that kind of margin with as many turnovers Creighton had, they have a serious shot to do well in March this year.

Can anyone tell what is wrong with this play before the announcers reveal it?

McDermott is absolutely amazing....that 44 points is the 6th most in Bluejay history.  And even more important the Jays win again, 92-83 and are 13-2 on the season.

Plus Tuesday is Northern Iowa.

They probably should of picked a different night to do the drink promotion.  UNI would be packed without it.
