4.0 out of 5 stars GO GATORS!!!!, February 13, 2009

As far as the game is concerned, it wasn't one of the most exciting Championship games in history. The game was droned out because of too many penalties and lengthy play reviews. The defenses shined while two of the top rated offenses were very error prone. Florida did make a great comeback in the second half to take their second title in three years under Under Meyer. Florida, as always, was fun to watch. Tebow and Harvin were flashy and dynamic.

Fox's broadcast was disgraceful. My first issue was with the choice of commentators. It kills me when the commentators chosen for the most important game of the year barely cover games during the season. I want a crew that work college football all day Saturday and cover the mid week games during the year. These guys know the players; they know the teams; and they have earned the right to commentate the biggest game of the year. However, Fox chose Thom Brennamen and Charles Davis to cover the game, which are two guys that I've barely heard of. The commentating was even amateur and embarrassing at times. One of the gnetleman started cheering at one point as if he was a fan. Commentators should never show irrational emotion or favoritism like that (unless its a local broadcast). Unfortunately, this is how most stations choose their commentating crews for the championhip games, but it seems that Fox usually makes the most embarrassing choices for the big game.

My second issue with the Fox broadcast was the cameras. I know that this is the big game, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you have to put on an elaborate show. The multiple camera angles got distracting and annoying. Fox was changing angles too many times before the snap. There were a couple times when they changed the camera angle right at the moment of the snap causing me to lose focus on the play formations and direction of the ball.

Although the broadcast wasn't the greatest and the game wasn't super exciting, it was a great display of football. There were some very talented players on the field and some great teams. Definitely a great day to be a Gator!

Overall the DVD is very good. Of course it was a televised game so the main game coverage was amazing. Nice camera shots of sweet plays is a plus. They have a good bit of extra content and they did a fair job of being impartial. Personally, I love the Gators. I have not found any easter eggs yet, not sure if there are any. If you are a football fan, you should get this DVD. It is a great game in my opinion. Especially, being able to see two Heisman winning quarterbacks facing off against one another.

To make it short, great game! A must for any Gator fan.

I ordered this as a Christmas present for my boyfriend this year. We went to the game last year and thought that this would be a great pick-up for his Gators collection.
