Unfortunate Seating Plan Leads A Football Telecast Awry On Sunday

U.S. College Football is back and all the American networks are jumping on the bandwagon, with every one of them (except Fox and the CW) showing a game at the same time on Saturday. And then came streaming service Peacock down south, which also had the exclusive rights to a game. 

Everything was fine until the camera caught an unfortunate seating arrangement for the two main sportscasters calling the contest. The sign read "Big Saturday." But that's not exactly what viewers saw when the cutaway in question turned up on the tube. 

 
Viewers immediately rushed to social media to point out the "Big Turd" sign that seemed to be on screen. Not exactly a good first impression!

If he had moved over to his left a few more inches it could've been even more embarrassing, given the word below "Saturday".

The sign would have been fine if it could hang just a few inches higher. 
It looks like there was room to do that too. 
Who is responsible for this? Why did it not get noticed before air time?
