Yes, you can approach it like that.

So this game will be on TV? If I start watching at 3:30 and avoid the internet beforehand it'll be as if I'm watching a live game, yes?

Ha, that would me my dream come true. Sports stopped by TV timeouts. Note, it's not a media timeout. I would prefer a running clock.

Anyway, to answer the question, no. Games are stopped anyway, to 1. give TV time to put in the ads. 2. Radio is broadcasting live. So, Radio needs the pauses.

Since it's tape-delayed, will there be the momentum-killing "media timeouts"? Since the game is being shown on a delayed basis, FSN can put in a "media timeout" whenever they want, for as long as they want. Does this mean the game won't be interrupted?

"James Rodgers cracked a tooth on that hit from USC’s Taylor Mays"

Pathetic. Taylor Mays should be suspended with the official, period.

"OSU’s three losses this season have been to three top-25 teams. No. 4 USC, No. 23 Arizona, No. 5 Cincinnati have a combined record of 18-3."

What is good is that OSU hung into each game, never letting go. Maybe with a little more 1 or 2 or even 3 of those losses could have been victories. The USC loss hurts because they were close.

With this defense, getting back on the winning track will not be easy. Oregon State, where opposing offenses come to get healthy.
