It was one of the craziest finishes in college football in a long, long time, as Miami inexplicably botched the end of their apparent win agains Georgia Tech. And, the man who was on the TV play by play call is our guest on the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast."

Host T.J. Rives welcomes Wes Durham to discuss the unreal actions of the Miami head coach Mario Cristobal not choosing to have his offense kneel on the ball to kill the clock with :40 left and win the game with the Yellow Jackets. Of course, the exact opposite happened, as the 'Canes ran the ball, fumbled and Georgia Tech beat them three plays later with a TD to remarkably win the game.

Wes discuses how he and his broadcast partner, former college and NFL QB Tim Hasselback, had to process and disect the crazy finish in Miami. Then, Wes relays that his "Sunday job" as Atlanta Falcons radio play by play broadcaster then saw a dramatic finish as their kicker beat the Houston Texans in the final seconds with a booming field goal. Two incredible finishes, one on TV and the other on radio, with the same guy calling both.

It's a fascinating look into the craft of play by play from Wes.

Then, T.J. wraps up with some "Love it or Leave it?" on subjects of College/NFL ratings vs. everything else, hyperbole in sports broadcasting and hockey starts up with a new NHL seaon, too.
