Network: NBC
Announcers: Don Criqui, John Brodie
Format: DVD (2 disks)
Quality: 7.0
Notes: Commercials edited out... Includes some halftime and postgame... One play joined at its conclusion after a commercial... Grade would be about an 8.0 except it has the 'dropped frame/ssslllllloooooowww down' effect that occurs 2-3 times per minute and becomes very distracting and annoying.
