Brent Musberger's love of himself reached an all time high in the Rose Bowl coverage today. Penn State mounted a comeback in the second half and USC needed two interceptions in the waning minutes including one in the endzone to pull out a 14 point win.
Great comeback by Penn State? Never mentioned.
Scenarios on how Penn State could pull it out? Never mentioned.
Discussion about Pete Carroll's inability to keep his highly-talented teams focused for full games and full seasons? Never mentioned.
Pictures of Brent Musberger dancing with Cloris Leachman and discussion of a cameo on Dancing with the Stars. Plenty.
Unfortunately, he brought Kirk Herbstreit down with him. Every college football fan I know groans when they hear Musberger is covering a game.
What does ABC see that we are all missing?
