The CBS camera…

[SNAFU]

Listening to Full Ride on Serius, Rick Neuhesiel (sp) said that CBS lost a 6 figure camera on top of the goal post that was brought down in glorious fashion. 1st, good to offset Gary D’s salary and, 2nd who has it or is it still in the river?

That was big issue in 98 too.

With the ratings numbers that game brought in, they can replace it with a new one made of solid gold.
NEXT seasons ratings however ……….

Thankfully, they don’t have this problem at Bryant Denny

Hard to believe a camera costs over $100K these days since you can just about film a movie on a good iPhone.

Not sure which camera they are talking about, the north or south endzone.

I know the south endzone camera was removed. The police man was trying to disconnect the cord and gave up and cut it with his pocket knife.

 

[igotworms]

I have it.
I had it autographed by tebow And gifted it to vern

I hope CBS never finds it they can afford another one

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Maybe CBS can set up a go fund me for it

Ratings were through the roof!

 

[saxvol]

The game exceded the most watched college football game so far this season by a million viewers, I think they will be fine.

Anybody check Atomic Pawn?

Ratings through the roof and camera down the river

Wonder if CBS eats it or does UT pay them for it.

I bet they talk to their lawyers about it

I'm telling you man that game was big up here. People all over talking about it. I probably had 30 to 40 people just at work come up to me saying how they watched the whole thing. How the Vols are for real. It was the game of the day no doubt. When the season is over it might be the game of the year. Putting 52 points on Bama. I'm not sure that has soaked in yet for most of us. It was a team on a mission. Set to destroy and it did!

Lol I know the guy that still has a good portion of it

One of the greatest college football games of all time

The CBS production was outstanding. Lots of great camera-work in the game.

The lenses for broadcast cameras alone are thousands of dollars, and they’re getting more expensive, not less. High-end glass never loses value.

 

[rocketskates]

Shouldn’t have put it there. You have two referees watching the ball to make sure that it goes through. Is it in the river too?

[Russdaddy2027]

I would love to see the footage on that thing as it was coming down and paraded all over....Similar to when a bear swipes a trail camera!

I thin it is largely the high speed precision servos needed to rotate it quickly enough to track a ball or player
