ESPN's SkyCam Fails in Kamikaze Attack on Marvin McNutt in the Insight Bowl.

ESPN's over-the-field camera crashed to the turf late in the fourth quarter, causing a five minute delay while the camera was reeled in off the field. A quick thinking band director quickly called for the band to repeatedly play the "SportsCenter" theme song while the wreckage was being cleared from the field.

Thumbs up to the band director

for quick humor.

That brings back memories

I helped out with the Skycam for the USC game in Lincoln in 2007. At one point the camera was a little too low and nearly got hit by a pass.

Wow that is sketchy

I hate to say it, but it’s only a matter of time before a player gets seriously injured by one of those things.

...the sky really was falling on Iowa that game...
