If you're planning on attending the Blue-Gold Game next Saturday you will witness a "first" at Notre Dame Stadium -- a Skycam.  ND's Official Athletic Website, www.und.com, will be "testing" the use of a Skycam (photo above) -- a camera suspended by a series of cables over the field -- during the game.  NBC is expected to have some technical advisors in attendance -- looking to see if they want to use the camera for their telecasts this fall.  Ironically, NBC was the first to use a Skycam for a  football broadcast when they had the XFL television contract in 2001.
