Despite plenty of warning, there were some fans who were angry with NBC for switching over to the speech.
@NBCSports ND/ Clemson is the best game of the year. I will never watch @NBC again for interrupting it.

DAMN YOU @NBC…did you really have to cut away from the game considering every other channel has it on?
