BTN to become first college sports network to produce live football game in virtual reality

I wish they had done this LAST week so fewer eyeballs would have witnessed the meltdown in Columbus due to technical difficulties.
 
Really not a 'techie' guy but more power to them. I think though I will just watch it the old fashion way.
 



This dates me, but here's the type of virtual reality that's more my speed:

1) Close eyes
2) Listen
3) Brain takes care of the rest:

 
I know this is a test run for BTN to see how well this will work, but how many people out there have these devices now? It might be cool, but something in my head is telling me not to run out and buy the needed equipment to partake.
My phone is not a Samsung so I was out from the word go.
 




Are there any gamers here who know what this might really be like? I'm imagining you can, for instance, focus on the defensive backfield by just turning your head, even if the DBs aren't even in the regular TV picture.

I think we had another thread on this somewhere, but I decided since Best Buy has last year's model of the Samsung Gear VR headset on sale for $60, I'd pick one up and try this out tomorrow during the game. I'll let everyone know what it's like.
 



I feel so left out, I'm going to watch it in actual reality instead of virtual reality.:(
