I can explain this for you. Nessler/Danielson were on ESPN back then. This game took place on Saturday October 5 1996, and ESPN ran into a major scheduling conflict because they had two MLB Division Series playoff games to cover at the same time that this game was to be shown (12:00 PM EST). ESPN showed the Yankees/Rangers game while ESPN2 had the Orioles/Indians. This game was not shown nationally as a result, but ESPN produced the game as they already had their crew on site.
UGHHH that kid at 2:30 said it all, he could tell they had a good shot to win it. I'm from Ann Arbor so you know how I feel, hey at least we could beat ohio state back then.
my family and I were going nuts in the stands when Gowins hit that FG to go ahead. this game was one of my favorite NU victories.

Bates and Autury
i love NU
I forgot that Ryan Field had AstroTurf that recently. Nice to see the production from ESPN Plus' forerunner, Creative Sports.
So wait, this game was on PASS yet it has Nessler and Danielson, the announcers for ABC?

Well, I live in the Detroit area and I think I remember it being on ESPN here. I wonder how the baseball game was shown.
