Disappointed in the Fiesta BIG in 60 version

I usually love the 60 minute version that BTN does.
Every play, almost no announcer babble, limited replays.

For some reason, in the Fiesta Bowl episode, they cut out a chunk in the first half, not showing the either of the fumbles.
But then in the 2nd half, we get a ton of announcer drivel and a lot of replays.

Not sure why they went away from their usual formula- it is usually play over, next snap, not much between play stuff. Not so this time.

Probably on the editor. Some junior kid with limited experience.

I haven't watched this one yet, have it on DVR. But in years past, in some of them, I was certain that someone who did not understand football as a fan was the one doing the editing.
So, if this one is "weird", I would not be surprised if someone who isn't totally tuned in to college football was doing the splicing and dicing, as you suggest.
I also assume they don't get enough viewer feedback to know that they are screwing up the enjoyment for their paying customers.
